Boston hotels in Back Bay

Cons: Service and physical property

Cons: We had no view out of our room. Looked out on an alley way and trash dumpster.

Cons: It's an older hotel, it's probably time to update some of the amenities, particularly the bathrooms (which were nice, but def older).

Cons: No free wifi. Only basic tv channels.

Cons: Bathroom too small, water with very low pressure

Cons: No pool due to renovations...not mentioned when reservations were made...not explained when checked in...

Cons: $55 for parking is a joke

Cons: Parking is expensive ($65 per night). Wine in bar is very expensive.

Cons: I think the hotel feels too old.

Cons: The elevators are slow.

Cons: Nothing

Cons: Although the food was good the menu needs more variety

Cons: Noisy neighbors. Called front desk and they didn't seem to do anything.

Cons: Water bottle in room cost $7.50. Elevators very slow on occasion. Very old TV system with limited HD channel selection.

Cons: Elevators are a disaster, unless you love waiting. No free wifi in the rooms (what year is this????). No fridge in rooms (what year is this???)

Cons: 8am Altman going off

Cons: Everything there is super expensive....no free breakfast...16 dollar fruit plate..ridiculous

Cons: When I first arrived to check in the person checking me in said I had two reservations, for two rooms, one paid for one not. I was pretty freaked when I heard this because they asked me to pay again at the desk. I contacted Kayak and according to the nice lady from the company she took care of everything and she did it was not on my bill. My complaint is that it shouldnt have been an issue to begin with, how stupid was the guy at the front desk? Kayak has been good to me with reservations why was that an issue? I actually dont understand how that would have even happened to begin with. My other complaint is even though I KNOW there were several conventions in town that weekend, I was really upset that my friends at the Sheraton got to have an extended check out till 2pm when I KNOW almost EVERY Marriott I have stayed at before has extended check out, the book says they offered it and the lady on the phone said they did NOT offer it specifically because of the convention. I don't see it as far if a hotel attached to the same convention center with the same amount of people could have it and I could not. Especially since the Marriott was a far nicer establishment the hotel room I stayed in and hotel in general was far better kept and polished then the Sheraton. So that was my only true disappointment. Especially since I did not have to check out, I was all set and would just leave. I understand as my mother used to work for Marriott that the maids have to come in and clean asap before new people check in around 4. But still, that just...was odd. In a hotel that large usually they have maids for a lot longer so, I guess I am just missing something.

Cons: There was an extremely faint electronic beeping noise that me and my husband heard every night falling asleep; nothing that prohibited us from falling asleep, but I will say that I noticed it each night as I was falling asleep. A little pricey, but warranted given the location; we also didn't pay for parking as we had a family member with a free garage spot at work across town.

Cons: Elevators are a little slow and packed

Cons: Bit of a waiting line to check in

Cons: We were two guys gong to a red sox game and even though I had called ahead to request two twin beds, we were given a room with a king bed and fold out chair.

Cons: I was very upset with the fact that my room had no internet access other than paying $13 to $17 a day. I am sure when I made my reservation through Kayak that in the description of the room it read that internet access was included. I called the concierge desk but they were of no help to me. As nice as my stay was, I would not stay at this hotel again nor would I recommend it. The elevators were a mess during my stay too. Everyone staying there was upset and complaining about the incredibly long wait times.

Cons: Location

Cons: Room furnishings

Cons: Bathroom was not cleaned properly may be the product they used and did not finish wiping down because toilet cover and seat was sticky.

Cons: Most hotels I stay in offer water & have it randomly placed around the hotel. There was none to be found here; including the gym. When we attempted to use the vending machine to buy some, only took $1.@@ or coins. We only had larger bills.

Cons: The lobby bar is a little dark. Too bad it doesn't have better views.

Cons: Spa is very expensive but good.

Cons: Room as tiny, but functioned fine for a solo traveler.

Cons: The parking garage (the only parking option) was quite far away and when the weather was cold and windy, it was quite a pain to get to the car.

Cons: Great value just know the rooms are very small.
