Should be called Boston Pricey Plaza
I was attending a conference at this hotel so opted to stay here. The rooms were small and cramped. Some may call the "retro" or "quaint" but I call them shabby and overpriced. That being said the bed was comfortable. Two things really irritated us. One, the advertising that breakfast was "on us" this winter. This was clearly stated on their website but no details were provided. It sounded like breakfast was included but we ended up paying fifty bucks for breakfast on our first morning here. The food was excellent.....but it's breakfast. Secondly, we had a couple of questions for the conceirge when we arrived. We like to make tea and coffee and I brought a coffee press with me. I have had the automatic shut off kettles in hotel rooms before and requested one as well as a bar fridge. The conceirge replied in a condescending manner that a kettle was a "major fire hazard" and acted like we were idiots for asking. I was wondering about the coffee maker, hair dryer and iron that were included in the room. Apparently these were not deemed fire hazards by this guy. A simple "no" would have been fine. Staff needs to lose the attitude. And the charge for WiFi is RIDICULOUS. I agree with Felt42 on that one. Move into the 21rst Century.
