Great view, however right outside as we were walking we saw 2 young men came from out of nowhere and bullied causing intimidation to another tourist who was taking pictures of the surroundings and minding his business. Felt very unsafe seemed to be people who live in the outside surrounding area by their appearance.

Very modern hotel located 20 minutes walking from everywhere… service was great except guy working at bar. Trying to pay for a soda was impossible as he only helped or acknowledged guests buying alcohol. Overall a very nice place to stay

CitizenM Back Bay
My stay at CitizenM Back Bay was great, when I booked the hotel I was looking forward to relax, comfort and enjoyable. I experienced exactly that and way more, The staff are very friendly but everything is pretty much self service. Parking is difficult, but not hard to find around. Overall it was an awesome stay and I will be returning :)
