"The hotel is centrally located, within walking distance of many of Boston’s tourist destinations such as Quincy Market and the Freedom Trail. Everything was clean. The King city view room was adequate."

10/10 Excellent
"Great location right next to Boston Common and the Freedom Trail. The hotel lobby felt grand, as though you’re stepping back in time. The bed was super comfy and in a good sized room. The bathroom was nice, although the shower was absolutely tiny. Overall, a good stay."
