A bit noisy
If you visit this hotel, make sure your room doesn’t face Monsignor Rd. Cars blasted this music all night. Additionally, road construction with jackhammers started promptly at 7:00 am.

Not worth the price
Hotel is older and it's insane that it was $400 to stay there but it was comfortable and clean. The problem I had was that housekeeping staff was outside my door in the hallway screaming back-and-forth at 8:30 and didn't stop until 11 at one point I asked them if they could please turn down the walkie-talkies they were using because the volume was very loud and I couldn't get back to sleep. I just got a blank look, but they turned it down and just continued yelling back-and-forth.

Staff was average, room was above a very noisy street. Door handle to bathroom was ready to fall off. Room we booked was for 4 adults with 2 queen beds. Received fresh towels on 2nd night however beds were not made. Also, only received enough coffee, cups, creamer etc in room for 3 people each day but we were 4.

Short Stay
Reasonable rates because the location is out of core Boston. Walkable to the tram lines. A negative ... Only two elevators (floor level lights and some buttons) so house keeping and trash bins use the same as the full house guests. Breakfast was always spot on, even with full house dining.

Convenient location, good breakfast but $50 for parking overnight is nuts. I recommend people to search for more affordable options. I never pay attention to parking because it’s either free or affordable. Fifty’s dollars is a bad joke.
