The location is perfect, one street across Quincy Market, close to Aquarium and waterfront, with blue line train access right out of the door. The hotel has been renovated. It is quite nice but very dark inside whole day, regardless of bright sunlight outside. The door to the room is difficult to fiddle, it still use old fashion keys that is reusable ( I hope they clean it properly with alcohol after each guest - such unhygienic practice ). There is no drinking water in a bottle provided, no coffee or tea, no kettle, no microwave, there is just no way to make some hot drink in the morning. Tea and coffee is provided till 1030am only and you have to go downstairs to main lobby to get it. What a strange arrangement for a modern day hotel. When on vacation I like to wake up when I feel like it and have my coffee in my pyjama in the room - not happening here! The parking is at a garage that has no in out access. It is more like a car storage place for the length of the stay. You basically leave your car there and pay $39 per night until you check out. You are expected to use public transport during your stay. This could have been communicated during reservation so guests can plan accordingly. If we knew we would have returned the rental car earlier, before...The location is perfect, one street across Quincy Market, close to Aquarium and waterfront, with blue line train access right out of the door.

You are expected to use public transport during your stay. This could have been communicated during reservation so guests can plan accordingly. If we knew we would have returned the rental car earlier, before checking in to this hotel ( last few days of our New England trip before flying back from Boston ) instead of paying $39 per day for “storing” the car. It also affect our itinerary plan as we had planned for day trip out of Boston to Rockport and Providence. Each in out of the car park is a minimum of $18 on top of the $39. I wish I stayed else where with valet and in out parking despite the higher rate. In my opinion communication is either poor or intentionally vague or misleading. Also there are plenty of places around the area where you can park for around $24 per 24 hours. The reception could have mentioned that instead of just telling us to park where they perhaps have a kick back from the garage.

Overall we didn’t like this hotel at all. From the unfriendly staffs to the poor amenities to the fiasco of the parking.

Not recommended at all, especially if you have car with you.More
