The Revolution Hotel
Nice room. Bathroom down the hall is different but ok. Bathrooms need better cleaning between use. They don’t empty the trash which sometime smells

Omni Boston Hotel at the Seaport
Clean Upscale And reasonably priced for Seaport. Nitpicking but wish it was an espresso machine instead of Keurig.

Great lobby- but dated rooms that look & feel like lower end rates. Stains on chairs, etc.
