Great location for an historic hotel
We stayed three nights from 27 July 2012. The hotel is a grand old place with plenty of charm and quaintness. We were checked in quickly and easily and given a room on the 9th floor. The room was very nice, clean, comfortable and quiet, although the bed was a double rather than a queen or king-size. Our room had a view into someone's apartment, but that didn't bother us, as you can step out of the hotel and be right in the centre of Boston. Rooms are on the small side, but that didn't affect the quality. The staff were friendly and pleasant, and the free wifi was good to use in the lobby area. They also gave out free ice creams every afternoon. Location-wise it was excellent - right in the middle of Boston near the common, Faneuil Market and the shops. It's on the Freedom Trail and you can walk to most interesting places in Boston within 15-20 minutes. T stations were very close for getting to Back Bay, the airport, and Cambridge. Overall we enjoyed our stay, and would stay again, in this historic hotel. For Boston, it was also reasonably priced.
