"This hotel room was unfortunately very dirty, with dark spots all over the carpet, and hair in the shower. My room key needed to be replaced twice in my one night stay as well, as it became demagnetized just from being in my bag. Unfortunate stay. "

"So frickin’ fresh n’ clean! Coffee and good food right out your door - and at the hotel itself (Tiffany’s has always been a favorite of mine). No, it’s not the Harvard Square that I grew up with (mid-1970s to mid-1990s), but damn it’s nice to visit. And the only place to stay is The Charles. 10 outta 10."
