My stay was fair. The building is so old. Three different floorings in my room. Tissue holder coming out of wall. Bathroom counter top slopes so much that anything you put on it rolls onto the floor. Clean sheets and towels a plus

I absolutely loved this stay. If you’re on a budget, consider this place. You get what you pay for and it’s worth it! My siblings and I were here for two nights, Friday and Saturday, and we were amazed with how spacious our two queen sized beds felt and fit in the room. Our room had a stove top, fridge/freezer, microwave, blow dryer, shower amenities, towels, tissue paper, tv, lots of light, its own heater/ac unit to change as needed, ironing table. It was incredible. They also had free breakfast, which was amazing for the price of staying there. No protein options aside from eggs and sausage in the breakfast sandwich, but there was self serve waffles, pancakes, bagels, toast, muffins, milk, yogurt, whipped cream, Nutella, apples, bananas, oranges, jelly, 3 cereal options, and more that I may be missing. It was 10 minutes or so away from Boston downtown or universities I was visiting. Absolutely loved this place and would come back to this reliable hotel. Incredible for its price!

Advertised on Hotel.com as family room with 2 double beds and a fold out couch. Arrived late and told only 1 double bed and that it was 'our fault' that we had misread the booking (which was for 4 adults and a child). Fold out bed not made up, and a wait of 1 hour while the receptionist refused to escalate the issue to her manager.

The Boston Hotel was clean and comfortable, well situated to use the Green Line. My room was quiet, but the security chain was broken, so I didn't feel as safe as I might have.

Staff were friendly and helpful! Parking was easy and had a lot of spaces available. The breakfast was great and had a lot of options including hot and cold items. Room was clean and simple. Only critique is that there were not very many outlets other than the one at the tables. Also, the shower head didn’t function properly and the jet stream did not fan out. Otherwise we had a great stay.
