Had the fire alarm not gone off 4-5 times in less than 8 hours, the stay would have been pleasant. One alarm even went off just before midnight, startling me out of my sleep. The staff stated that it was due to crossed wires. There was nothing done for the inconvenience. Having to evacuate the hotel and having firemen in and out every time the alarm went off was a lot. Hopefully, the issue gets resolved soon.

The hotel was a great find. One of the best parts was being near the Lechmere station, which allowed us Boston newcomers to get quickly to Charlestown to see the Tall Ships. The room was comfortable and the breakfast better than most hotel buffets. The staff allowed us to park a bit longer so we could venture out without moving the car. Also the hotel was surprisingly quiet considering the location along a industrial road.

Close to public transportation. Super nice staff, the highlight of the stay! friendly and eager to assist. The breakfast was shockingly nice, with wide variety for everyone’s taste and comfortable ambiance. The lobby looks very nice. I would would’ve put 5 stars but bathrooms don’t have any ventilation so it gets very mucky in there and the bath door is damaged with moist because of it… so it looks unpleasant. And maybe is time to replace the popcorn ceilings in the bedrooms?

Fantastic location, just a 5 minute walk to the metro to jump on the train straight into the city centre which was also just a 5 minute ride. Bus station combined with Metro to get the bus to Harvard which is onky just 2 miles away. Would 100% stay here again, hotel clean snd tidy, plenty of choice at breakfast too.

Clean, comfortable and quiet. Fresh ground coffee 24/7 w available creamers. A nice breakfast bar, basic eggs, potatoes, meat, cereals, yogurt, fresh fruit. Breakfast bar is kept stocked as guests deplete the serving trays. Foods are refilled and fresh. Hotel is so clean! There’s a really cool gym across the street that is available to guests too. You have to sign out a key. I will stay here again on my next trip to Boston.
