2. Numerous calls to desk and support still didnt resolve the slowness of wi fi so if doing business.

3. The OK: the bath products are just so-so, bathtub drained slowly, television in bathroom is a nice touch however it doesn't work (said 'no signal'); shower partition leaked a fair amount of water on the floor after taking a shower, elevators could use some freshening up (carpet, walls, and buttons are worn).

"The best boutique hotel in Boston " Read full review on TripAdvisor 5/14/2011 Vote

4. What you aren't getting here are rooms with great views (and the view from the rooftop isn't much to see either) but the window and indoor lighting is decent, gym is a bit sparse (cardio machines plus some small free weights), and the elevators are slow so you often have to wait for them awhile.

8. The decor is a bit drab, building feels old, elevator is awfully slow, and the air conditioning is weak (a big problem considering our summer stay).
