We had a girls weekend heading out to nearby favorites in Somerville and Cambridge. Only draw back is my daughter waited over an hour to get into our room as they could not find our reservation. 3 people at the front desk and no one found it. I had to send it from the plane ride. Not acceptable. Josephine’s was the bomb! Portions are huge. Very quiet rooms. Would stay again.

The lobby is beautiful and inviting and the staff were friendly. My room was beautiful and huge. There was no room service option, no bottled water and barely any tea/coffee provided in the room. I called front desk for water and a robe and they said they dont have but i could come down and buy water in the lobby. Usually nice hotels have a cozy robe but they said they dont offer this or room service. Overall still a lovely stay, just excited slightly more attentive service for what you pay.

The hotel is clean and nicely decorated! The staff is friendly and helpful. We like that there is a gym and a game room. And coffee in the lobby in the morning. There was Some miscommunication about restaurant hours, but we also liked that they had “ to go orders”

Beds extremely comfortable, very clean, very spacious, had a nice aesthetic look. Only thing I wish I could change was the handicap shower for a walk in shower. But overall everything this was great!
