• The hotel is beautiful and it is in a great upscale location. We could walk almost anywhere.
• The room was a little small.

“The lobby is quite beautiful. Our room was very clean but a bit small and the bathroom was small as well but had beautiful marble floor and tub/ shower walls. The food at the Irish Pub was excellent. We will stay here again and recommend to our friends and family.”

• It was in a great location.
• The room was old and was given an accessible room in which the bathroom flooded.

“This hotel has many good features but it is old and definitely showing its age. If you get a good deal on a room then it is worth just for the location but do not pay full price.”

• Price, convenience, very accommodating and friendly staff.
• Very much in need of renovation/updating and cleaning.

“Very convenient location. Aging property in need of major updating. Rooms relatively spacious, bathrooms small. Linens and towels of mediocre quality. Age of fixtures and furnishings lends and air of uncleanliness to the rooms. No pool. Definitely not a 3.5 star hotel, perhaps a 3 star hotel, pretending to be a 4 star hotel.”

• Location and it was clean.
• The parking was HORRIBLE.

“Would not go back as do not want to deal with the parking, have stayed at a lot of hotels in the city and this was by far the most disorganized I have ever encountered. Kinda to bad as our stay was OK until we checked out and wanted our car, that has left a bad taste and really turned us both off.”

• excellent location and well deocrated
• (1) inoperable internet wired connection and no wireless available in room. (2) small size of room/bathroom

“"nice enough" hotel and a fair value for the priceline deal. the rooms are small and bathrooms are very small/unattractive. The decor is very nice in the rooms and public spaces. the biggest issue was the lack of wifi in the room and the wired internet connection in our room did not work - we ended up spending 1-2 hours at starbucks everyday as we needed internet. nice staff too.”

• Great location, elegant and bed is luxurious.
• Air conditioning barely worked even on high & the bathroom is small and outdated.

“Gorgeous hotel, elegant and classy. Great security as needed key to goto room in elevator. Fabulous restaurants surround property, luxurious linens and bedding.”

• The lobby, hallways, location and staff were very good.
• The bathrooms were dated and dilapidated, the temperature never got comfortably cool even though it was set at 65 degrees.

“Excellent location, beautiful lobby, pleasant staff, nice hallways. The bathrooms were awful. Although the hotel rooms seemed to be updated, the bathrooms were clearly neglected. A plastic tub/shower retro fitted thing apparently covered the old tile but it was coming off. The original 1930's floor was still there but not in good shape. Overall, not what I would expect for 3.5 stars.”

• Location was good, convienant to Subway
• Old. Outdated

“Nice location, close to subway. Check-In is pretty slow. The lobby is nicer than the room. The room very dated, lacking the amenities you expect in this star level (e.x. no flat screen TV).”

• Location to Subway
• No Air-Conditioning in 90 degree weather for 2 days.

“The hotel was nice and in a great location if you're relying on public transit to get around Boston.The air-conditioning didn't work in our room, however, and with the weather in the 90s, we were miserable the first 2 days of our stay. The hotel didn't do much to help our situation and it took us until the end of day 3 and a personal visit to the Front Desk to get a room with A/C.In other words, the traveler has to initiate efforts to make the stay enjoyable. The staff, in general, is not helpful and is very much reactive instead of pro-active.”

• Very convenient location being close to the T and the common as well as the theater district
• The bathrooms were very small and one were emitting a foul odor

“The Hotel is located in the heart of Boston with easy access to public transportation. The hotel is on the historic list and has been well maintained. The bathrooms are kinda small, but shouldn't be a show stopper for selecting this hotel for your stay.”

• I left sunglasses in room, called from the road and security found them and mailed to me at no charge!

“Room was very dated and small but clean. Bathroom was clean and very old and had not been updated in years. I left sunglasses in room and I called from the road and spoke with security. They returned my call after finding the sunglasses and mailed them to my residence -- free of charge -- they arrived within 3 days. Great service!”

• Great historic atmosphere with beautiful Lobby and great location.
• Room was incredibly small with very little room to move around, bathroom was old and outdated, sheets on the bed were ripped, and the tub was dirty.

“Great location and beautiful hotel lobby and public areas. The rooms are older and outdated but this also adds to the charm of the hotel and the history behind it. Cleanliness is one area the hotel could improve on.”

• It was in a great location, had a great lobby and a great choice of restaurants.
• Small and antiquated bathrooms.

“The hotel has many great attributes, including its superb location, grand lobby and charming bedrooms. With some updating and TLC, it can be readily achieve 5 star status.”

• I really liked the lobby and hallways!
• The room was small but, still very nice and sophistocated

“I really liked it! It had an old time feeling with an updated decor. It was much better than I expected. There was no view out of our window as we looked on the next building of rooms, but it just didn't matter since we had such a nice time! I would recommend this hotel and priceline to all of my friends!”

• Lobby and staff were friendly.
• The plumbing was so incredibly LOUD, I cannot even describe it! It was like a Jackhammer!

“OK, nice lobby. Friendly, efficient staff. The room was rather small but, who cares, the bed was pretty comfortable. Unfortunately, they brought in a cot for our son and I'm not sure the bedding on that had been changed. The plumbing in the hotel, i.e. that you could hear in our room and in our bathroom was so loud, I swear, it sounded like a large jackhammer or excavator was coming through the wall.”

• Location and traditional elegance.
• Spot cell phone coverage in the hotel.

“A great hotel for business travel or get away. An older hotel with character, bathrooms could use an update but not terrible. Not such a great spot if travelling with younger kids, but OK for older teenagers.The location is great.”
