I would most definitely stay here again and recommend to anyone visiting Boston, especially for a first-timer like myself! It is in a very touristy area and easy to find your way around. The staff was incredibly generous and very attentive no matter the time of day! For a historic property, the rooms and other common areas were extremely clean and very well-maintained. Overall, this is one of the best hotels I have had the pleasure of staying at and I plan to book again when I come back to Boston!

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
The location was amazing, however, the rooms are pretty small and the elevator broke the first day we arrived so we had to go up and down 4 flights of stairs every time we went to the room. The amenities were great, water and coffee are offered in the lobby. Staff was friendly but parking is limited and not the best. Would recommend if you don’t plan on spending much time in the room itself.
