United States, January 2025

7.4/10

This hotel boasts a phenomenal location, just a short walk from Faneuil Hall and other historic sites in Boston. The rooms have a charming ambiance with exposed brick, but noise from the street can be an issue, so I recommend opting for an interior room. The staff was quite helpful, although I found the parking situation a bit inconvenient, requiring a walk to a nearby garage. Overall, it's a decent place with good value, especially for its central positioning.

Rooms

7.0

The rooms were cozy with a nice ambiance, though the outside noise was disruptive during late hours. An interior-facing room would likely offer more peace.
