The staff were wonderful! The room we had was so small. It had a run down feel to it and there was a stain on our comforter. We also discovered almonds on the rug and we hadn’t eaten almonds😬.For the price we paid we expected a nicer room.

I stayed at the hotel for two nights for St.Patrick’s weekend. After all day of outing, I wanted nothing more than a nice hot shower. I received a letter behind my door that states that hot water was not working. The water was ice cold. I had to wipe myself with wet cloth because I couldn’t tolerate the cold water. The next day I had high hope that the hot water would be fixed, but this was proven to be wrong again. I felt so uncomfortable and dirty. I tried to shower again but the water was freezing cold, and it was simply too painful to do so. The hotel never check on me or my friends who stayed in a different room once. They also never notified us when the water worked again. They did not offer accommodation or compensation for our inconvenience, and I don’t think this is professional at all. Most likely will never stay here again or recommend this place to anyone I know.

I didn't like that there wasn't any hot water or prior notification to check in advising me so I could make other choices.

No hot water for our entire stay. Between the hotel and Expedia lost our first night reservation. We got stuck talking to a guy in India who was of no help. Stay in Cambridge and take the train into town much better and

The building is old which is what originally was our draw. However, there is poor upkeep in some areas. Our room was not the cleanest but overall it was OK for one night

I love this hotel. This is my 3rd time staying here for a Celtics game. 5 minute walk to TD and 10 minutes to the North end. Rooms are clean and well appointed with a spacious walk in shower with plenty of hot water.

Room was dirty and smaller than expected. Very dark hallways, the elevator took forever, and not much soundproofing of the room so could hear neighbors. Someone was smoking in the room next door so room smelt of cigarette smoke. Bathroom was extremely small and dated. The proximity of this location to where I was attending an event is the redeeming quality, otherwise I was disappointed.
