Pros: Location - great views and easy access to all Boston has to offer. Room was large, airy and bright with a huge bed and good shower. Breakfasts were also good.

Pros: Great location, friendly and helpful staff, comfortable and clean room and beds. Good restaurants walking distance nearby plus the Hop on trolley office is close. Complimentary breakfast served outside the rooms so we could take it into the room and enjoy - it was fresh and wonderful! We left early on our day of departure to catch a flight and breakfast items were in our room fridge for the morning - very considerate. Travelling with 2 teenagers - the queen room with 2 queen beds and sofa bed was really spacious. Sofa bed (unlike many) was really large and comfortable. Common lounge area facing the marina was great to relax in after a day of walking plus free water, coffee and snacks were available if needed. We all loved it and would love to stay here again.

Pros: This was beyond our expectations. It was very family friendly and the room was HUGE! It had everything we needed and more. The bathroom was pristine and large. The room was very comfortable. Cheryl at the front desk was an amazing wealth of knowledge for things to do around the city. She and Rick were extremely accommodating to our needs. The breakfast was delicious and had a nice variety. The captain’s lounge was a fun place to hang out and watch ships go past.

WELCOME TO THE INN @ ST. BOTOLPH
Enjoy the contemporary charm and outstanding value here at the Inn @ St. Botolph. Housed within a historic building in the vibrant Back Bay district of Boston, we offer a unique and independent spin on the typical hotel experience for business travelers and vacationing guests. Instead of a traditional lobby with a doorman and a bellhop, you’ll enjoy private keyless entry and a more individualized experience – as though you’re living in your own luxury furnished apartment here in the city. There’s no need to worry about tipping or other standard hotel-related expenses, although our staff is always on hand to help you, of course.
Elegantly appointed suites are filled with modern technological perks; all of our suites feature full kitchenettes, as well as 42-inch flat-screen TVs, deluxe bedding, and free hotel-wide WiFi. Squeeze in a workout in our fitness center before joining us for a delicious free continental breakfast every morning here at the hotel. Our lounge is the perfect spot for relaxing, meeting other guests, getting insider travel tips from our staff and enjoying a cup of Nespresso coffee or David's Tea and a snack- all available daily at no additional cost.
Step outside the hotel and into the heart of the city; we're steps away from the Prudential T Stop on the green line and within walking distance of The Hynes Convention Center, Symphony Hall, Northeastern University, Berkeley College of Music and the New England Conservatory. We are just moments away from attractions including the Shops at the Prudential Center and the Museum of Fine Arts.
The Inn and the Columbus Hospitality Group are pleased to offer guests preferred savings at our fine-dining restaurants in the city. From casual Italian small plates to upscale French Mediterranean cuisine, our restaurants please any palate.
Your urban sanctuary is waiting for you at the Inn @ St. Botolph. Let our hospitality experience and enthusiasm for our city pave the way for an easy and enjoyable stay. Reserve your room today.

Pros: Gorgeous room with beautiful large windows.
Cons: Breakfast was pretty poor. The only coffee available was from a machine with no explanation on how to use one side broken (not written, but other guests informed me). No real milk available, so couldn’t even get a decent cup of coffee. Also was advised on parking, but place did not seem to exist on gps and police had no idea where it was either. Spent 30 minutes locating an alternate place.
8.0 Excellent
Pros: Convenient location, nice atmosphere, chocolate on desk!
Cons: I was supposed to have my access codes emailed to me in advance, but I never got them. This could have been a problem if I had arrived later in the night.
6.3 Good
Pros: Location is great ; room was clean and attractive.
Cons: The "hands-off" approach to lodging services may be the latest thing, but it leaves the guest with a feeling of isolation and coldness. Every detail of my stay was managed electronically and felt totally impersonal. When I needed a little help from the staff I found them huddled in dark basement room surrounded by computer screens--the scene was reminiscent of being on a submarine. I guess I'm just a person who appreciates the attention of a good concierge and attentive, welcoming hotel staff--especially when I'm paying many hundreds of dollars for the service.
9.5 Excellent
Pros: 1. Very quiet neighborhood, but located near restaurants, attractions and restaurants 2. Facility real quiet 3. Staff was very accommodating and nice
Cons: 1. Staff not on site all the time- when I was leaving, there were 3 guests waiting in the 90 degree heat for someone to come back and let them in. Seems to me that 2 people should be there at all times, so no guest is inconvenienced.
9.3 Excellent
Pros: Perfect location for me. Subway is very close, and also it was very convenient to walk around the hotel. There are some shopping places and historical places within 10 mins walk. Boston is a nice city and if you don't have too much time to see the city, I guess Inn at St. Botolph is best place to stay. Rooms are clean, bigger than I expected and staff are helpful.
Cons: It was written as there was a continental breakfast, but I need to say that I haven't seen such a small continent :) If you don't count coffee, tea and a small piece of bread as a breakfast, there was almost "no breakfast". However, you can go to 7Eleven which is around 30 steps far, and buy something to eat on the next morning as a breakfast. You can leave your luggages after your check-out but don't forget to get the phone number of the staff otherwise as far as your entrance pass will be expired, you cannot reach your luggages on time.

Pros: Close to work

Location was accessible by either Prudential or Back Bay subway stations. Local bus No. 1 depart near Syphomny station (4mins walk from Copley House) bound for Cambridge, where you can visit Harvard University and MIT. Tips for bus travel - if are travelling by interstate bus (i.e. from NYC), South Station is 30mins away by subway+walk (Chinatown to Back Bay station). When going to NYC, I booked OurBus, where they pick up passengers in front of the Sheraton Hotel, 5 mins walk away from Copley House. 7-11 around the corner, and a supermarket is 5 mins walk away. Copley Place shopping mall and Prudential Tower mall are also 5 mins walk away! Linda at the receptionist was kind and provided us with many information!

Pros:
Cons: The Copley House has a number of apartment buildings in Back Bay and I ended up in a building that was about 15min walk from where I thought I would be, which was very inconvenient as I had booked specifically for the location. It was like being in an Airbnb with hotel prices. It was very noisy and I was woken up every morning by people in the corridor. There were no staff around to provide assistance. I wouldn’t stay here again.

Cons: Our particular room, #13, was nothing more than an oversized closet. The queen bed was pushed up against the wall on one side, very inconvenient for one partner. The bathroom was less than 30 in. wide and the mini basin sprayed water on you if you did leave the door open so you could stand further away. The room was dismal and stark. It was clean enough. Utilitarian is the best way to describe it. Said to see such a grand old house chopped up to nothingness. Perhaps other rooms have gotten the better reviews...#13 is "unlucky."
6.7 Good
Pros: I believe the location is excellent and very good value for money.

4.0 Okay
Pros: Location
Cons: Pretty rundown; sheets were clean and crisp but that was the exception.
5.5 Okay
Pros: The area was nice, there were lots of restaurants, shops & bars nearby. It also felt quite safe.
Cons: It was extremely basic. I didn't want a fancy hotel, so knew that it wouldn't be amazing but I have to say I was quite shocked how basic it was. Much more like a hostel than a hotel. The room I was given for the first night wasn't great, big but very dark, they then moved me to a much better room for the second night. The staff were extremely friendly and helpful, and I got the vibe it was a family run establishment.
3.3 Mediocre
Pros: Nothing, terrible and disgusting real roach motel
Cons: It’s a disgrace to call this a hotel, no bathroom in a room had to use a bathroom and a shower with other guests and it was filthy, room was so dusty I could hardly breathe, would never recommend this hotel even to my enemy

Cons: Really I can not tell you becouse for the price I didn’t expect more For one night was ok

2.5 Mediocre
Pros: I did not like one thing about the Farrington Inn. I will never go back and I will let everyone I know about my experience there.
Cons: The two belligerent "customers" asking about rent who verbally abused me and my partner in the "lobby". What an absolute horror show.
5.0 Okay
Pros: The price is comparable to other hostel-type lodging, so that was the only redeeming quality. The property also felt relatively safe.
Cons: The website depicts a guesthouse-type lodging in good repair. We have stayed in guesthouses and bare bones hostels all around the world, but this property was far from! Parking is listed as included on the website, but they told us that it is not guaranteed and the lot was tiny, only a few spaces and far too few for all guests. Check-in was a mess - the wait was long and cramped, and the staff kept disappearing. We had one towel for four people, and no hand towels, soap or shampoo. The phone did not work in the room. The repair of the building was horribly sub-standard - patched holes in walls with no paint over it. The room with the best cleanliness and quality was sadly the shared bathroom. We also saw the building license listed as 14 rooms, 25 total people - we saw a few rooms of people checking in with 3-4 in each room, including us - this equates to FAR MORE than 25!! We would never stay at this location again - camping in a tent is far preferable.

Pros: private bathroom
Cons: no towels. dirty. had not been cleaned in a long time. our room was down the street from the lobby. Also did not like having to run my card twice--once online, once when i got there. Not trustworthy.
