In the post-stay surveys, priceline.com hotel customers are asked a number of questions about their stay and the hotel. On a scale of 1-10 with 10 being the best, the survey asks guests to rate their overall experience and specifically rate the hotel's cleanliness, staff and location. Priceline.com does not allow site visitors to post unsolicited hotel reviews.

The staff was phenomenal, and the room was beautiful and perfect location!
Loved everything.

If anyone want to be in perfect location for all Boston has, this hotel is the only one to stay at. We had a perfect experience and would stay here again in a heartbeat! Loved everything about this hotel! And we even used the train and it is perfect location for that as well!

The staff was very friendly.
The pillows. Both of us are allergic to down material. Woke up with stuffy noses and sneezed all day.

Overall, this hotel met my expectations. It's located in a decent area (right near Fenway!) The staff was very friendly and accommodating, and the price was decent. My one and only real complaint was the pillows. As some people have allergies, I feel that placing down-filled pillows in the room should be something that is communicated with guests. Both of us woke up with stuffy noses and difficulty breathing. That is literally my only complaint and it's really more of a wake-up call to myself than anything else. ...read more

I like that it was quiet and clean.
I didn't like how the lobby was so dull and we had to go upstairs for ice.

Very inflexible and not accommodating when it comes to itinerary changes.

Business travelers beware. Hotel is very inflexible with reservations and potential changes in your itinerary!
