    There was renovation work going on during our stay, so initially some areas of the hotel and the bathrooms were not quite what I expected based on the photos. I believe much of this was due to the renovations in progress. The room itself was clean and comfortable, and I really liked the marble shower. The staff were also very helpful and friendly throughout our stay, which made the experience more enjoyable. Overall, we had a positive stay. The location was definitely one of the biggest highlights, and I would consider staying again, especially once the renovations are completed.

    Thank you for a wonderful 3 night city break.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    Excellent stay! The location is perfect. Easy walking distance to restaurants, shopping, and many of Boston’s historic sites. The amenities were wonderful, especially the complimentary coffee bar and water station. Did someone mention the bed? The bed was amazing! The staff were friendly and helpful. I will definitely stay here again.

    We are in love with the property! Best location and nicest staff. Very fun and authentic Boston experience.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    Everything was clean, the service was great. The only thing I did not love was the bathroom was very small.

  • Engine customer Jul 2026

    The Staff was extremely helpful, and the property was clean and convenient to the Hynes Convention Center. Provided parking was a life saver with plenty of shops and restaurants in the area.

    This hotel is in a beautiful street.

    The photos of the rooms in this "guest house" were very deceiving. I thought we would have a room with bay windows, a fireplace, charming furnishings, as pictured. But, what we got was a generic hotel box with a tiny window and a very tiny bathroom. The name is also deceiving as it wasn't guest house-like at all. It looked like any other bland hotel room in any chain hotel. With no bar, workout room, pool or breakfast, the price of this room was outrageous. At checkout when I spoke to the front desk, they assured me a manager would get back to me because of my disappointment in the accommodations. Was never contacted.

    Staff and location

  • Engine customer May 2026

    Spacious and clean rooms with daily service. Very good restaurant located downstairs. Nice staff. Hallways, stairways and common carpet were “tired” and in need of investment. Average shower head.

    Clean, great location

  • Engine customer May 2026

    The staff were very nice and friendly

  • Engine customer May 2026

    Fantastic stay! Wonderful location, beautiful and comfortable room. The staff were all so nice. In walking distance of “t” and lots of restaurants right on the same street as hotel. Can’t wait to stay here again!

  • Engine customer May 2026

    Very clean and in a premiere location! Would love it if it had breakfast.

  • Engine customer May 2026

    Small but very clean and comfortable room. Hotel is undergoing construction so it wasn't in pristine condition. Parking in back was tight but available for $35/day. The location was fabulous. Walking distance to multiple stores, restaurants, theaters. Highly recommend.

  • Engine customer May 2026

    Staff are wonderful, kind and courteous. The parking is extra, but in an alley behind the hotel with direct access, it was a little tricky at first, but we had no issues with it even in an SUV. Location is in the heart of Newbury street, and while there was street noise - the location and charm of the area outweighed this. If you are a very light sleeper, bring ear plugs. We very much appreciated the refreshment station and the quaint feel of the house. We will return when we're back in Boston.

  • Engine customer May 2026

    Staff has been terrific! Parking is so easy. Right in the middle of everything on Newbury.

  • Engine customer May 2026

    I love staying here when I'm in Boston. Close to everything and super cute hotel.
