Nice property, with three restaurants and a well-equipped gym minutes away from Harvard square. Rooms are clean and specious with mirror TV in the bathroom. The only reason I don’t rated the hotel 5 star is that it doesn’t have a mini fridge and instead it has a mini bar which doesn’t keep the perishables cold enough.

I came for the Boston Calling Festival with my boyfriend and loved the convenience of walking to the hotel. The next morning we enjoyed breakfast at Henrietta’s together. We then spent a lovely day walking around Boston and Cambridge the next day before heading back to the hotel for the night. Leaving this morning was bittersweet. I will plan to come again and have recommended this hotel to my friends.
