It’s located in a good area near to many important places. They provide you towels, cover for night and breakfast with different options. The day I was there they had a movie night. Confortable beds. Clean bathroom. I think it’s perfect if you travel alone and need to stay cheap. The only “downside” is that I didn’t find private rooms, maybe I just didn’t search enough. Anyways, I really don’t mind sleeping with more people. If that’s your case you found the perfect place.

I really enjoyed staying at HI-Boston, it was a great safe place. My only note on not all five stars would be the staff. Overall, they were very pleasant, one night of my stay however, they just very short and kind of rude to basic questions. Seemed very judgmental. Either way, I still enjoyed my stay.
