4. The services was where it got kind of iffy; room service kept telling us it that our breakfast would arrive in 'another 20 minutes' for over an hour and a half, until it was too late and we were almost late for our lunch date.

5. The decor is old school- some will say dated but it's actually classic and fits in well with Boston- you know, one of the oldest cities in the US.

6. The rooms are dated and as I read from other reviews the most telling sign is how DIRTY the carpeting is .
