Amazing stay. The staff is exceptional, but Janiel went above and beyond for me helping me find ways around the city. As a solo female traveler I felt very safe staying at the property and if I ever come back to Boston I won’t even consider staying anywhere else. I travel frequently and this property is in my top 5 ever (very close to the top).
The property was very nice and new. The decor was lovely and conducive to getting work done. The staff was outstanding --kind, friendly, informative and extremely helpful. I really enjoyed my stay and will stay the again on my next trip to the Cambridge/Boston area.
The location was great. The rooms were large and the bed was comfortable. The housekeeping came very late each day and didn't seem to fill up things like the lotion. There is no breakfast.
The room was really nice and clean. all the amenities (bathroom, kithcen, TV) were all super new and renovated. The water pressure was amazing. I also really liked that instead of an old-school iron, they had a steamer! Like yes we are not in the 1900's anymore!
Overall, I would definitely stay here again, it's about a 20 minute walk from harvard and a ten minute walk from the nearest T-station. Porter square also has a lot of great food and coffee options around, so yeah
This hotel is clean, the staff are friendly and helpful, and the rooms are modern and spacious. The location is convenient with a short walk, (about 5 minutes to shopping and restaurants). They have a garage under the property, which is super convenient. I would stay again in a heart beat!
This is a great place to stay! Clean, super great vibe, but the best thing was how helpful the staff was… a brand new hotel trying to build the business is the best place to try out. Great value! I’ll be back for sure!
Reasonably good hotel, not too quiet unfortunately, but okayish. The parking garage would benefit the automation. Other than that, good location and nice rooms.
Underground garage was safe and convenient for parking. Staff was helpful.
Apologetic when my request for hair conditioner dispenser refill and bed cover replacement (due to existing blood stain) was not addressed.
Very good new hotel; clean, nice beds, friendly and helpful staff. The selling point for me is its location, which is within walking distance to Porter T station, many restaurants and cafes, Target, CVS, grocery store, and urgent medical clinic.
Terrific new hotel option in Porter Square. We stayed there just after the hotel opened, and while there are a few kinks to work out, the staff was very accommodating and helpful. Rooms are big! We stayed in a room with two queen beds plus a sitting area and a small kitchenette and it felt plenty big for 3 adults. Close to coffee, cafes, and shops.
Everything was exceptional except for the parking. I would defintely stay here again but if you do, expect drive down a service ramp and have to call the front desk to let you into a garage below. When coming back out, you need to call someone to let you out and the drive up the ramp. Its a bit risky because you are inverted and cant see oncoming traffic before you turn on the street.
I was pleasantly surprised with my experience at this hotel! I was initially thrown off by the location of the property, but as I walked around I could see that it was located next to a few stores and also a rent-a-bike area. The cleanliness of the room was great, the size was great, the bathroom and all it offered was great! It even had a mini dishwasher that completely blew my mind!! The staff was VERY friendly and pleasant to speak to. The pricing was reasonable for the size of the room as well. The only negative I could come up with was that they do not have room service. I believe there is not a kitchen onsite at all. They did have an off-side service area to purchase drinks, some frozen foods, ramen, and a few snacks. (I did not utilize this area, so I cannot comment on the prices.) Housekeeper was very friendly and accommodating with my request as well. All in all i would absolutely stay here again, and if /when I return, this will be my go to place to stay.
