We loved staying in this area of Boston. The room was very nice, but definitely smaller than we anticipated. We enjoyed the library to play games in the evening. Very nice historical property. Very charming We had problems getting into our room and were so lucky the management had not left for the night. He provided access and we appreciated his help.

My remote key did not work, so I had to punch in the long code each time I went in. My room was clean, and the location was convenient and close to everything, so I would probably stay here again. However I was woken up at 7am to drilling, and construction noises that sounded like they were coming through the wall in my room, and my bed was even vibrating. Not to happy when I like to sleep in when I am on vacation.

Great amenities. Comfortable bed and loved having a little kitchenette space. Luggage storage lockers in the lobby were so helpful. My only complaint was some difficulty with the mobile entry on a couple of occasions.
