Nice hostel with clean and quiet vibe

Nice little hostel for a quick night after a delayed flight. Felt safe in my 4-bed room and slept well in my pod (would not be good for those with claustrophobia though). First time in a hostel in about 40 years, and would def come back for an inexpensive night in Boston.

We were told coffee would be available in the lobby at 7am. Never ready at 7. First day had to find housekeeper to start. Other days they were just starting the brew at 7- ish. The description of property said managers reception but no mention of it at hotel and employee looking at us like we had 2 heads. Ok for price but probably never go back

Overpriced for what it is

I tried it as an experiment. The " capsules" are reasonablh comfortable if you are nit claustrophobic. Problem is there were 16 of them in one room. Air was stale even though capsules have fans. When i was there only about 6 out of 16 were in use. Naturally people coming and going early and late disturb each other's sleep. Shared bathrooms were ok. Had it been say $50 a night I would have thought ok for backpackers and young travellers. At about $100 a night i would suggest they look for alternatives. I am not that demographic but I sleep well and like to experience new things. However, I will be wary of this concept in future. It needs better execution.

My experience at Meco was great! The staff were amazing, they were kind and helpful. They offer a mini grab and go pastry “breakfast” in morning and offer coffee as well. The hotel was walking distance to TD Garden and the North station. First time visiting boston and this was a great place to stay

They have a 150 dollar safety deposit fee, it wasn’t written on the ad when I booked on Expedia. And the reception tried to charge be over half of the price I paid when I paid in full on the app. Honestly disappointed about the service but the place looked clean
