Not a 5-star hotel
The best thing for this hotel is it's prime location. You are in the middle of Boston. Hotel has grand old style, but not extra-ordinary.
Overall this hotel is ok, nothing special, rooms are clean and equipped adequately. Breakfast was fine, but restaurant with the bar is extremely noise (for dinner). You can hardly hear your own thoughts. Go there for a drink or two, but staying longer will give you headache. Food and wine at the restaurant was fabulous.
All in all I would like to stay here due to it's location and relative low price.
PS: On my last day of stay I was twice disturbed by house keeping staff, as if they needed to make room ready for the next guests 10am - check-out time is noon - quite an irritation!
