The Boxer was a lovely little gem of a hotel within walking distance to everything we wanted to see! We were granted an early check in and late check out and front desk staff were so friendly! Extra shout out to our friend Ricky (front desk) whose positive, friendly and helpful attitude truly added to our overall trip experience. Thank you!!

Great place to stay if you're going to an event at TD Garden (3 minute walk). Also walkable to the train station and many restaurants. Only thing I didn't like was having one elevator in the building. Glad I could do stairs!

Room is too small for the expensive hotel.price. Room photos in the website does not correspond to real room condition for room size. Limited supply of toilet paper for three people in a room. Value for money is not worth it.

Not convenient if you have a vehicle
I'm assuming the rates increased because of season and nearby events, but we did not know that there was no on-site parking or valet option. My husband is handicapped. We had to park a block away and walk from a neighborhood garage without in/out privileges. We had to spend hundreds on Uber. We probably would have stayed somewhere else if we had known.

No valet/onsite parking!
We found out upon check-in that there was no valet parking “Yeah the site says valet, but it’s wrong” - you have to pay $40 to park a few blocks away in a gov lot. It was very difficult for us as first timers in Boston to navigate - GPS brought us to a closed entrance. It was dark, rush hour, construction - not fun. We finally had to ask someone standing outside where the entrance was. Then the following morning, my husband unfortunately neglected to bring the ticket to the front desk before getting the car. He was charged $80 by the garage and the front desk couldn’t do anything about it (we realize that was his mistake, as they did tell us when we checked in - please learn from our 12 hour $80 parking mistake!). Parking fiasco aside, the hotel was clean, the bed was decent - the location is alright. Certainly not worth paying roughly $700 for 12 hours on a random Weds though! I actually was really looking forward to this stay too, because I loved the pics of the building and it seemed like a cool place. I would have never booked the room though, had I known there wasn’t actually valet or onsite parking.

Mixed Bag
Front desk morning check in was polite and rude at the same time. No one to help with luggage and parking is a walk to government center parking. This is discounted but don't exceed your 24 hours or you will pay high rate for next 24 hours. Check out was much better and they were very nice and watched our luggage.

The hotel itself is wonderful. It’s clean, the staff is friendly, and the rooms are nice. The parking is in a garage that’s a 5 minute walk down the road that you have to drag your luggage to and from. We paid over $100 for parking for 2 nights. Horrible situation in my opinion, it should be included or at least reduced to a reasonable rate. We also almost didn’t get a spot in the garage because it’s not just for the hotel, anyone can use it, so you risk not even getting a spot in it.
