For the most part the stay was nice, my only issue was that I already had my card on file and when my husband went to get snacks from the little store they ask to put his card on file and although he said no they still did it.

You can hear people stomping around and the walls are thin. I might’ve caught the bartender of the night a woman names Annabel on the wrong day. She is rude and unprofessional. Took my order incorrectly and then asked me if I communicated with the chef?! I’m a paying guest, it’s now my job to communicate with the chef and figure out what went wrong with my food order. I’m still waiting for my credit card to be credited for the meal that I canceled. It’s not worth it for me to ever stay here again. It’s unfair to pay money for subpar services.

Yes, but the check was marred by your crazy parking app. The room was small and depressing and I took one look at the breakfast offerings and headed to the nearest coffee shop. Given the price, it was unsatisfactory.

The walls and floors are paper thin. The guests above us and next door were extremely loud. Also our entire hallway overwhelmingly smelled of marijuana as if people were smoking in their rooms.

Reception personnel was the best part of our stay. Both gentlemen grated us with a smile, friendly and helpful. I am not used to traveling and had a number of questions which were greeted with no irritation, but an attitude that wanted to make my trip as seamless as possible.

The room was clean. You are able to set the temperature of the room, plenty of towels, soap etc. The building, lobby, even the room itself are all aesthetically pleasing. The breakfast included is really good though I often got the fruits, eggs, egg & ham sandwich, and the sausage which were all great! On weekdays, you have more variety perhaps due to higher volume of people on weekends. The staff was very friendly and helpful. I highly recommend staying here and I would stay here on another trip to Boston, MA.

When we booked a room with advertised "city view" I certainly did NOT expect a view over the imposing building across a VERY busy freeway (95). It was loud all night. The room was narrow and the swimming pool was as big as a bathtub. BUT the staff were lovely and it was immaculate. Lose the "city view" in your description. False.
