Basic hotel; nothing fancy. Very loud from street (people yelling and emergency vehicles) and church across the street. Bells ringing every 15 minutes starting at 5am. Not cool. Won’t come back.

Busy and loud area. Valet and driving to and from was terrible. Hotel not fully open with very limited amenities in it or around it. New but poorly designed. Heard all sounds from busy street and in the halls. Horrible.

It was distressing to arrive at 10 PM with a full Expedia reservation in hand, yet the hotel had no record of our reservation. Fortunately, and a huge fortunately that they had a room available in a huge weekend in Boston - but at a higher price. I use Expedia quite often and this will probably be the last time since I no longer have confidence that your systems are robust enough to ensure a confirmed reservation.

The description on Expedia states the hotel is recently renovated but it is actually still being renovated. The main lobby is covered in plastic. The rooms are no different than they were 2 years ago when it was a Kimpton Hotel. Overall nice rooms and the location is amazing.

The hotel staff, from Calvin the manager, to everyone else we encountered were wonderful. Always eager to help in any way possible. Parts of the lobby were under renovation, which didn't have a negative impact on our stay, but will certainly be a bonus for guests when complete. The location was perfect for walking throughout Boston and close by many T stations.
