Bath tub need an upgrade. The $35 “destination charge” per day is ridiculous. We were told it was for the “free wine” each evening. Which we dont drink. Can we get that money refunded? We stayed 5 nights! $175 please.

Our shower leaked and a good majority of the bathroom floor would be covered in water every time you would enter the bathroom. We had to use our towels to lay on the floor every day to contain the water. Also did not like the homeless drug addicts that hang out very close to this hotel so we made sure we went inside as soon as the sun started to go down which limited our overall boston experience.

Great location. But: * It's expensive. * The names of the two AKA hotels in Boston is confusing. Apparently this happens often - I was not the only one. So why not be clearer? * The Back Bay branch sought to charge $50 each room for checking in at 2.10pm, ahead of the 3pm time. The room was apparently available. How to annoy your customers. * Plus $42 per night surcharge on the fee charged by Expedia, buried in the small print. Another irritation - there should be grater transparency. Supposedly this covers the gym (which I did not use), a glass of wine (which I do not drink) and the internet. The internet - seriously? This adds up to complacency in my view.

Fire Alarm went off in the middle of the night twice, we were evacuated from the building and no one from the hotel addressed us. Very poor hospitality. Turns out it was a maintenance issue with the sprinkler system. Not a 4 star hotel as advertised. This was a 3 star at best

Great Location in Boston

Really nice hotel in the perfect location. Right on the Freedom Trail. Super easy walk to Boston Commons (basically, right across the street), Faneuil Hall Marketplace and Quincy Market,Cheers, lots of restaurants and bars, and one mile to the St. Charles River (a great place for a run or walk).
