Our room was great, very clean and comfortable. I like the location of the hotel, we did a lot of walking to nearby spots and it was pretty central. There was some construction going on, but I never heard or saw anything that was disruptive. Would definitely stay here again.

Convenient location around lots of attractions. Staff was friendly, but hotel was under construction and not inviting. Room was dark and did not feel super clean. Would have to see it again after the renovation. Price was good for the area.

We were not informed that the property is under complete construction. It list said it has valet parking, but you must have a small compact car for that so I had to walk and park the truck in a parking garage away from the property. My bedroom only had scalding, hot water, including in the toilet. . I have never seen a steaming toilet until this point in my life. The desk staff were very friendly.

Major construction is going on in the lobby. It's very loud and very unwelcoming experience. At 5:30 AM, the sound of hissing and banging pipes was enough to get me up and checked out earlier then necessary.

In Boston for a long weekend for a girls getaway. The hotel was in a great location. We were able to walk to everything. The lobby of the hotel was under construction but that didn’t matter. The rooms were very nice. Comfy beds. Clean. Staff were very helpful and friendly. We had a great time.

We had a wonderful experience staying at the AKA Boston Common. A few little problems to start, like our mini fridge didn’t work. They brought us a new one. The ice machine didn't work on our floor. They brought us ice upon request. They were under construction. The staff at the AKA were curtious and helpful. We stayed 7 nights. This hotel is in a good location. Close to public transportation but it is in a very accessible by foot area. Carlton, the assistant manager, and the front staff made our stay exceptional! They were helpful in their recommendations for fun things to do, restaurants to try and close places to walk. The most memorable was when my son left his backpack at the airport! Carlton was so kind, he encouraged us to go back to the airport and look for it! I was skeptical, but we went back to the airport, 3 hours after we left, and we found the backpack! Boston suprised me! I'm sure the hotel staff has forgotten this Midwestern family by now, but we won't forget them or our stay at the AKA Boston Common.
