"Beautiful hotel located a little outside the downtown area. Convenient to public transportation, and the museum was a 15-minute drive away. There was a supermarket across the street. The room was spacious, and the breakfast buffet was good.2019-06-23"
"My hotel room was in the basement level, so it was a bit dark and disorienting to see people's calves and shoes walking past. However, the decor was lovely, and I loved having the galley kitchen and separate living area. Had to notify the front desk if I wanted housekeeping. The complimentary breakfast was a nice touch. The key code for the door was changed every day.2016-06-30"

"Convenient to Copley Square. The hotel was old and tired, and needed basic maintenance and fresh paint. The bathroom caulking had mold. The lobby had old-world charm, but was dimly lit. The carpet was quite worn in many places. The elevators smelled bad. Basic continental breakfast provided.2015-06-12"
"Great location. A fantastic, gorgeous hotel. It had an old-world feel with modern conveniences. Beautiful room, and it was surprisingly quiet and incredibly comfortable. Nice gym. The restaurant and bar area was lively.2023-11-24"
"The mattress was awful; I could feel the springs. The hotel was being renovated, and despite quiet hours, I heard hammering that started at 6 AM and went on all day. I don't recommend this hotel.2020-02-17"
"Clean but small room with a refrigerator, microwave, and Keurig coffee maker. Comfortable bed and pillows. The wireless Internet service wasn't reliable. The toilet ran constantly and was loud. So was the bathroom fan, and it came on automatically with the light. Worst of all was the poor soundproofing; I could hear the people in the room next door, and woke to the smell of marijuana. The entire hotel staff was absolutely fantastic. Great workout room, and the TV had many channels to choose from. Good complimentary breakfast with hot and cold selections, and I enjoyed the fresh cookies every evening. The shuttle service was a big plus, and parking was free.2016-03-24"
"My hotel room smelled musty, and the bathroom needed upgrading. Good continental breakfast.2015-09-10"

Hotel Booking Tips
Beware of non-refundable reservations that could cost you a lot of money if you change or cancel them. +Non-refundable reservations are a gamble that will usually save you less than $10. If you make a $90 non-refundable reservation instead of a $100 refundable booking, you are betting $90 to win $10. Would you do that in Las Vegas? -
Don't assume you can cancel a non-refundable reservation without penalty if you notify the hotel weeks or even months in advance. +Often you cannot – because some hotels' profit strategy is to get paid more than once for the same room for the same night. -
Always read cancellation policies carefully before you make a reservation. + When is the latest date and time you can cancel without penalty? - More >
When you make a reservation, you will receive a confirmation email. Take a copy with you to the hotel.
The earlier in the afternoon you check into a hotel, the more likely you will get a room or suite that matches your preferences.
