Extremely disappointing experience. After a long road trip, we arrived to find the front door locked in freezing Boston winter weather. We followed the provided instructions and called the front desk multiple times, but no one answered—even though we could clearly hear the phone ringing inside. We were left outside for over 30 minutes, then waited more than an hour inside without any assistance. Customer support also attempted to contact the front desk several times and received no response. Eventually, my boyfriend found a security guard downstairs playing pool, and the front desk employee had to be woken up. When he finally came out, instead of apologizing, he was dismissive and claimed the phone never rang. We rang it right in front of him—and it rang immediately. There was no sense of urgency, accountability, or care. Being ignored while cold and exhausted after traveling was incredibly frustrating and unacceptable. While the property looks nice, the lack of basic customer service completely ruined the experience. I would not recommend staying here, especially during winter.

The stay was excellent. The room was small, but exactly what we needed—very cozy, clean, and comfortable. Everything was well organized, and the atmosphere made us feel at home. The staff was friendly and attentive, which made the experience even better. Overall, it was a pleasant and relaxing stay, and we would definitely consider staying again.

Overall a good value for the money but the tv was super disappointing. It did not have any channels. It was super difficult to navigate. It had no internet capability ie to watch your own Netflix account. I also think it should have been specified in the listing that those in the lofts stay in a separate building. It felt more like we had been offloaded to an Airbnb than staying in a hotel. Staff was reasonably friendly. The guy at the coffee place/ cafe is super rude. He was rude the first time I stayed here and I’m surprised they continue to employ him. We also were supposed to be offered a free drink based on Expedia status but the front desk staff didn’t give that to us. We didn’t realize we missed out on this til after we had checked out.
