The hotel rooms are spacious and charmingly decorated, providing a cozy apartment-like feel; however, facing the alley brings morning noise from trash trucks. The service is consistently friendly, knowledgeable, and accommodating, making for a pleasant stay. The location couldn't be better, offering easy access to everything in Boston, though proximity to the subway is a bit of a walk. The dining experience is convenient but not extraordinary. Overall, a comfortable stay with some noise inconvenience worth considering.
