Room was rather nice. Bed was comfortable. But had the lowest water pressure on any shower I have ever dealt with at a hotel (and I've had some bad ones). Also, was directly next to the green line. Like, the train practically rocks the building. Coffee machine in room was broken. TV interface was barely responsive and TV quality was low.

Extremely limited parking. $40 a night to park there. The T runs right next to the hotel at all hours of the day and night. Not the hotel's fault, but good to know if you're planning on getting sleep at this hotel. One of the TV's didn't work for half the trip and we were told "too bad" on night one, and then when they texted to say how's your stay I said well there's a weird tapping noise on the wall, the people on either side of us were screaming until 3AM, and one of our TVs in our "suite" doesn't work. They came and fixed it by taking the box off of another TV because they were "no longer full".

Hotel was nice. Clean, comfortable, nice & helpful staff, good breakfast. Close to the green line, close to some good food. 20-25 min walk to Mass General and pet friendly- that’s the reason we booked. I would stay here again.

A smelly experience - stay away

We entered our room that had a severe odor from a carpet cleaning disinfectant. Our eyes were watering and our clothes smelled of the cleaner only after 5mins in the room. We left immediately and found an other hotel. We asked for a refund which was not granted by the hotel!!! Hotels.com would not refund us either. I’ve been with hotels.com for a decade. I won’t continue.
