Great value for the location. Loved the roof top bar, amazing views. May need a reservation and it’s only small bites but with going up for a drink to see the view. We were able to store our bags prior to check in. Clean and quiet, good sleep.

Rebooking to another date because of the national weather emergency would have cost over $500 for a single day's stay.

We just discovered this gem of a hotel in the Back Bay, and we loved it! It has a fun, funky vibe, a colorful and welcoming lobby, and a super-cool rooftop bar with an amazing view. We could see so much of Boston all lit up at night, and that was magical! The rooms are small, but immaculate. And the location is perfect and right next to a Green Line T-stop. We walked to Boston Burger Bar and enjoyed a delicious dinner. Thanks to everyone for a great visit to one of our fav cities!
