My stay at the hotel had its ups and downs. The location was ideal, right across from the train station, with fantastic shopping and dining options nearby. The service was a bit of a mixed bag, with some staff being incredibly nice and welcoming while others were not as friendly or helpful. The room, though small and lacking storage, was still satisfactory despite some cleanliness issues and noise disturbances. The dining offerings were disappointing, offering only basic choices, but were passable. Overall, the value for money was decent considering the prime location.

The hotel had very nice and clean rooms, with classical music playing in the background, creating a rejuvenating experience. While the small size was convenient for us, it may feel claustrophobic for some. The service was fantastic — super friendly and accommodating. The location in the bustling Back Bay area of Boston was convenient for accessing various activities and sights. The dining experience was described as better than expected, with just enough fresh options. Overall, a great memory-making stay with a small hotel charm.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The room was smaller than expected with a view of a brick wall, but it provided a quiet setting overlooking a side alley. The service was friendly and helpful, and the location was very convenient, close to the public library and within walking distance of many tourist spots. The dining options were limited, but the hotel had some nice touches. Overall, it was a decent stay for the price paid.

The hotel is in a prime location, right in the heart of Back Bay with easy access to nearby attractions and plenty of dining options. The rooms, though quiet, were not as clean as expected and on the smaller side, overlooking an alley. The service was kind and accommodating, but lacked knowledge about local services. Dining options were minimal but decent. The hotel's location is excellent, offering convenience and access to nearby resources.

I had a wonderful stay at this hotel. The rooms, though not very large, still offered plenty of space to move around comfortably. The music system was a nice touch; listening to classical music after a shower was rejuvenating. The hotel's small size added to its charm, and I had great conversations at the bar. I would definitely stay here again. However, the half-size closet was a bit limiting.

I had a mixed experience at this hotel. Although the location was superb, right in Copley Square near convenient transport options and attractions, the room itself was lacking in space and natural light. The service was exceptional, especially Joey at the bar, while the limited dining options were a letdown. Overall, a decent stay with some ups and downs.

I had a wonderful stay at the hotel. The rooms, although not large, were not an issue for me as I enjoyed the view overlooking the Boston marathon finishing line. The classical music playing in the room was a nice touch and really rejuvenated me. The friendly service, central location, and overall small hotel charm made my trip memorable, and I would definitely stay here again.
