Pros: The location was good and it was decorated very retro and on trend. Not a typical hotel chain where everything looks the same. I also liked that they had complimentary coffee and water in the lobby and the room.
Cons: The fan was broken in the room and I mentioned it to two people at the front desk. Both said that they would send someone up with a replacement. That did not happen. Front desk associates were chatting with the valet or using a personal cell.

Pros: Fun and convenient place to stay at a reasonable price.
Cons: Record players in the rooms were a cool idea but mind didn't work properly.

6.0 Good
Pros: the way the hotel had a theme of music and was different to normal
Cons: When we got there, there was another charge of $16.00 to use the pool and bar which we were not told about previously. Also we used the pool but there was nowhere to get drinks until 5pm, would have been good to have somewhere to get drinks.

Pros: Breakfast was typical hotel food but good! I liked the baseball imprint on the waffles and the live music on Saturday morning! Nice touch :)
Cons: Our air conditioning stopped working on night 3:4 nights and the room was hot. Other than that our stay was quite nice!

Pros: Good vibe in excellent location

Cons: The ONLY thing that would be better is more artifacts from The Cars and The Pixies. The Who - while in a league by themselves - is over-represented for a city with significant contributions to rock ‘n roll.

Cons: no
8.3 Excellent
Pros: The bathroom was stylish and practical. Excellent unique ambiance overall property. Friendly staff.
Cons: I paid a $55 parking fee and tipped a valet for someone merely holding on to my car keys. I parked my own car, carried my own luggage in and out of the hotel, and my car remained in the exact same spot in a nearly empty parking lot. What is the parking fee for?
9.2 Excellent
Pros: Very cool atmosphere and location.
Cons: Valet being a requirement is not something I expected. Not the worst thing, but an extra expense nonetheless.

Pros: This was a gorgeous hotel that offered lovely amenities. Large room that was beautifully appointed, chic lobby and great staff.
Cons: The only negative on this was that it was a bit of a walk to all the action, but super close to Fenway Park. The only other small thing was there was no coffee/tea machine in the room, which most hotels provide.

9.6 Excellent
Pros: Great location and service. Right near Kenmore Square T, Fenway Park and Boston University.
Cons: The amenity fee is high at $25 a night-so recommend getting free coffee and pastry to offset it. Understand it is now industry practice but still find it high.

Pros: Great location at west end of Back Bay Area in Boston. Area clean, safe, & walking distance to many restaurants & a small convenience/liquor store. Friendly people; clean, quaint, big room that resembled nice apartment, large bathroom. We love a fan in our room, but ours did not oscillate. Very shortly we received a second fan that did oscillate, and we got to keep the other one! Loved that :) One evening after extensive "touristing", we borrowed a couple of movies from front desk and relaxed. We were on top floor & had wonderful view of Charles River & a great breeze through screened windows. Really good continental breakfast each day. Coffee & tea available throughout day. I was concerned about two women walking at night and received a prompt, courteous email reassuring us of how good the area is--they were right! They also kept our bags several hours after checkout, as we had later connections. Overall, great stay at a wonderful place!

Pros: The Buckminster is superbly located in Kenmore/Fenway with lots of restaurants/bars within a stones throw and a subway station within 3 minute walk. Very friendly and helpful staff who went out of their way to provide information. Our “deluxe queen” room was fairly small with barely sufficient space for 2 suitcases, would not be ideal if you like to spend time relaxing in your room as there was no room for a chair. We would probably stay here again, but might look at an alternative room choice.

Cons: The hotel is well maintained, but it is an old construction. It could have more power plugs, the nightstand was in a place that was not useful for neither beds. And the breakfast was not included and a bit expensive and really slow (each stuff you order take about 10min)

Cons: THE HOTEL WITHOUT NOTICE CHARGED MY CARD EXTRA $54.95 FOR EACH DAY THE DAY *AFTER* MY STAY WITH THEM SINCE THEY HAVE MY CARD INFO ON TOP OF THE $100 DEPOSIT THEY ASKED AT THE COUNTER. IF I DIDNT CALL THEM later FOR CLARIFICATION THEY MIGHT JUST CHARGE THE MONEY. ALSO ONE OF THE ROOM WAS JUST A MAKESHIFT ROOM WITH PORTABLE AIR CONDITIONER SINCE THE AC OF THE ROOM WAS BROKEN AND THEY STILL CHARGE FOR FULL PRICE.

Pros: Server at breakfast was eggs-ellent (lol), very patient, friendly and helpful.
Cons: I love having the extra sleep area of the King Suite but, for the price we paid, the room with the bed was a little cramped and not as nice as other rooms I've stayed in. It was so narrow and tight there was no room for a chair or closet space. More importantly, the other room had a lot of extra space and could have really used an armchair or two since there were 4 of us in the suite.

6.7 Good
Pros: Location is fantastic. Very close to the Beth Israel hospital where we were visiting family. Great restaurants and cafes quite close and even a few attractions for our six-year old daughter within walking distance as well.
Cons: Although advertised to be available until 10pm (if I recall correctly), room service was not available at 8pm on Sunday night due to the restaurant only having one server at the time. I was stuck in our room with our young daughter (who was sleeping) and I just wanted a snack to unwind with but they couldn't deliver. The following morning we ordered room service for breakfast and my daughter found a shard of glass in her fruit cup. Although the location is fantastic, it did not feel like a $300/night experience.

Pros: The location of the hostel is great, central within the back bay area and a stone's throw from Fenway Park and all of the music scene associate with Berklee College. They hosted movie nights over the weekend which was a great excuse not to venture out into the rain after arrival. The bed was comfy, complimentary toiletries on arrival.

Pros:
Cons: I was un aware that there was no private room and this place is a youth hostel. I canceled on the spot and then was stuck with a $400 hotel room because Boston is over priced for no logical reason.

They hosted movie nights over the weekend which was a great excuse not to venture out into the rain after arrival. The bed was comfy, complimentary toiletries on arrival.
Cons: The 10pm-7am quiet period is not respected/enforced/even noticed. Which is fine if you're having fun but horrendous is you have early travel schedules. The hostel went from cold one night to horrendously boiling hot and stifling the next.
4.6 Okay
Pros: Perfect location for my needs.
Cons: First night Check In took more than 30 minutes; had to go back to front desk twice in an attempt to gain access to room. First night there was NO hot water for showering. Stairwell smelled of old urine EVERY DAY. Other guests left bathroom soiled daily, used linen on floors, in stairway, on floor in pile in room. Second night drunken man stumbled into room @ 2;00 AM, lights on, snored all night, his alarm went off 3 times, an hour apart and he never got up; front desk came into room, just UNLOCKING door without notice, telling drunk person "time to check out", only man went back to sleep for another hour. Talking to cleaner, who said that I could have gone downstairs and they would have changed my room.... "what would that difference have made when you have no idea what other guests will be like anyway?!
5.4 Okay
Pros: It was clean and the location was good, close to public transportation and walking distance from downtown and Cambridge. The other guests seemed more mature than I have seen in other hostels and it was pretty quiet.
Cons: Breakfast was virtually non-existing, the first morning I managed to get a coffee and a banana but the second morning everything had run out. There was no hot water in the shower on my second morning either. For this price I would have expected those things to be in order.
