All hotel stays should be like this
Absolutely easy and breezy. I love that I didn’t have to talk to one person. My access code immediately worked when it was time to check in and all I ever had to do was tap my phone on the key pad for the building and my room. The room was the perfect size, the shower was great with good water pressure, and I loved the amount of mirrors. I was actually surprised how comfortable the bed was. I slept so well!

Disliked: Staff & service
While the concept of this property is unique and helpful for a single person who needs a toilet a bed and a shower, it was cramped for a married couple who was recovering from surgery. We left after the first night, we were booked for two nights, there wasn't a chair for my husband to sit in to be upright after his surgery, so we just left. If it were one person, I think it would be better suited, we spent $30 in parking and had a difficult time finding parking the first night. The garage that was suggested in the welcome information, was closed and only allows over night parking until 7 am. It was clean and we received a welcome note from the host.

The property was wonderful! Clean, well-stocked, and comfortable. I felt very safe when inside. Shower, TV, lighting, style, coffee/tea station, mini fridge (did not keep ice cream frozen)- all very nice. Mobile key worked great. Outside of the property, I honestly didn't feel totally safe as a solo traveler due to many dark spaces, lone people sitting/standing/sleeping in the street, and lots of trash on Boylston Ave. But, there are many wonderful businesses around and the main streets on either side, Pine and Pike, are well lit and there was a lot of foot traffic Thurs-Sat.

Love the location in Capitol Hill! Line 1 to the airport a short walk away with street cars and buses half a block walk. Great restaurants, bars, and things to do all within walking distance. Rooms are small and spartan. Still nice and designed well. They do provide a mini-fidge, coffee machine, and teas. Just FYI: This hotel is largely unstaffed. There are small amenity cabinets on every floor, but do not expect a fully staffed hotel. There are also no elevators for public use aside from a service elevator if you absolutely need it. Bring a water bottle because there are filtered water machines on every floor. I would recommend bringing an eye mask due to the ambiant light in the room coming from electronic LEDs. They do provide earplugs and a white noise machine for those not used to city noise.
