1. I discovered this on the afternoon of the 3rd day and the desk manager began to cop an attitude with me when I tried to expl,ain to her what was wrong with the room.

2. Very conveniently located for Boston sightseeing but make sure you get off at the correct subway stop, we got off at the wrong one and had a long walk.

"Very convenient but could do with a lick of paint " Read full review on TripAdvisor 10/16/2010 Vote

3. unpleasant to look at- creamsicle walls with dark (dingy?) maroon checked rug with all wrong colors on the bedspread and dimly lit room (so you can't see the imperfections?).

"I don't think I would call it 'old world charm'... " Read full review on TripAdvisor 4/12/2010 Vote

4. Everything is well worn out- rug-dirty brown around the edges- crusty tiles in bathroom- the bed was what you would see at your grandma's way outdated house and color schemes and patterns were just all wrong.

5. The walls are thin, but if you are just using this as a place to sleep while you tour the city, there is nothing that wrong with it.
