The property was super communicative, but I would definitely not stay here again. Wallpaper was pealing from the walls, broken lamps, huge window AC unit, broken toilet paper holder, random holes in the walls, stains all over carpets in the entire building, and the elevator was broken for the 4 days we stayed there and had to walk up and down 4 flights of stairs… I guess you get what you pay for because the stay was very affordable compared to other options

If you like dorm rooms, this is fine. If you like doors that don’t lock from the inside, this is fine. If you’re ok with the shower turning off randomly 5 times while you’re showering, this is fine. If you’re ok with using What’s App, text, and email (instead of simply one), this is fine. If you are ok with texting management for all communication, this is fine - but when things go wrong, like a major leak in the bathroom upon arrival, and you get moved to a different room only to be moved again the following day, you might hope for better and more dependable and more consolidated communication - and possibly some money thrown back to you for the inconvenience - you may hope for management to reach out to you with updates instead of you having to reach out to them - but that won’t happen. Basically, if you’re in college and want to see a cool part of Boston and don’t expect too much, this place is fine… if you’re grown up and hope for a touch of professionalism, this ain’t it.

It was located conveniently for shops and the park and the rooms and bedding were very clean. The cleaning staff kept on top of the communal bathrooms but the cleanliness would depend on the guests that used it in between the cleaning. The picture you see in the advert is not the rooms i looked at or stayed in. The rooms are a lots more worn with some dark decor and peeling wallpaper with worn carpeting in areas, not polished wood floors as seen in pictures. That said it is clean, fresh clean towels and bedding and relatively cheap compared to hotels in the area.

It’s a great location for restaurants and it’s right at the park. The room was clean but there were lots hairs in the bedding which was pretty gross!

The property is great for a budget stay of one or two nights. There are few shared kitchens on each floor. The bathrooms/ showers are also two per several rooms. When I booked, I missed the “shared bathroom “ detail but that was not a problem since the showers were in a pretty clean condition. However, the site needs some maintenance :-(
Overall my experience was good, with easy self check-in process.
The area around is beautiful with easy access to public transportation. The one downside is that Boston Common park, which is an amazing piece of art, is across the street of the site so many homeless people are around. This makes the experience a little bit sad and uncomfortable.

The customer service was top notch. Unique property in such a great area of town - steps from Boston Common, transit, and great restaurants and shops. The place itself is very basic and dorm-like, but the beds were comfy and we felt great staying there.

It’s very central, walkable to most places, with parks and subway close by. No elevator for the six floor makes it difficult for long-distance travelers with large suitcases. But other than that everything is good.
