No one mentioned how to use elevator with key card, no one mentioned that the parking was $50 per day. The construction noise kept me up all night. The room was very clean and spacious

The only problem we had with the property is the heat wasn't working. They had someone look at it and it still didn't work. It was pretty cold in our room.

Love it! Would stay again. In the heart of everything and just a couple blocks from the T. Very easy to get around. Walked to MIT, and it’s right off the Kendall exit on the redline. Beautiful hotel with wonderful customer service. Such a difference from where we stayed in Waltham. We will be back!
