one night stay for flight the next day. Stayed in the tall stall type pod. Bed was good, light, fan, 2 outlets and usb a and c plugs. Bed was electric so you could raise the head portion only. Place is clean, rooms, bathrooms and common areas. Has a 7th floor lounge area with free coffee and tea. Soda and snacks for purchase. Great location near Haymarket. Definitely would stay again.

I’ve stayed in various types of capsule and cabin type hotels in Japan, so I’m always curious when something similar is offered in the US. There were a few quirks but overall I had no problems/issues during my stay (fortunately there was nobody else in my shared room so it felt like a private room). Location was also ideal and I felt it was good value compared to a hotel if you’re travelling solo and want to stay in downtown Boston.

Very happy with my stay. I had to extend my trip by a night and by the time it came to extend, this was one of the only affordable options nearby so I booked it. In the future this will be where I look first in the area because the price was right, I felt safe the entirety of my stay and my belongings were secure (which were my concerns staying at a hostel). The staff were extremely friendly and helpful and everything was clean and very comfortable! Thank you for my stay at your location!

Great place with great staff. I can’t speak much on the amenities so I’d say disregard my opinion on that area but overall the rest was great. When you check in they offer a lock to lock away your items if need be. During my stay I was unfortunately faced with someone who decided to overstay their welcome and I had to be reassigned to a new pod. In the new pod it appeared the controls weren’t working which I can’t blame the staff as things like this happen (Especially if the prior stayer did not bring it up to their attention) so I had to be reassigned to a new pod and during this time the staff were extremely nice and flexible with the situations and pod changes. I can as well say that they appeared to have fixed the switches by the next day(Not Confirmed). The bathrooms were extremely clean with plenty of towels to use.

Ideal for a solo trip, especially if visiting the TD garden for a concert or game. The place is a few minutes away from the TD and has a lot of food/ bar options very close by (literally a few feet away) that are open late so if you get the munchies or want to party after the show you absolutely can. On the 7th floor they have a vending machine with snacks also and light food and coffee for breakfast. Overall nice, comfortable, and secure. Great experience.

I’ve never booked any hostel before this, but this one exceeded my expectations. The pods were very clean and comfy. People were quiet between 11 pm and 7ish. There were coffee and three kinds of pastries in the morning. You can also store your luggage after checking out until midnight. The bathroom was the only thing I don’t like that much. The sink was a bit too tiny. But the everything else was great, including the location. It took me 15 min to get to the harbor. There was a security deposit of $150, which was not expected by me, but they said it would be refunded in a week.
