Pros
Historic building dating back to 1877, making it the second oldest hotel in Boston
Steps away from multiple dining options including Maggiano's Little Italy, Rooftop at Revere, and The Halal Guys
Direct access to the Freedom Trail's red brick walking path
Walking distance to outdoor entertainment including summer movies and winter ice skating at Boston Common
Cons
Theatre District location can be noisy during evening performances
Limited dining space in the breakfast area
“For a traveler on a budget, and proximity to Boston's landmarks is key, this place makes a compelling case. Expecting basic accommodations, I found the rooms clean, the staff helpful with local tips, and a real bonus: complimentary cappuccino in the lobby around the clock.”

small room lift shaft
The room was quite small. There was minimal natural light , . The lift shaft was close to my room , so I could hear some noise. This detracted from an otherwise acceptable stay.

The hotel is near many attractions. I found walking to the waterfront and dinner quite easy. The front desk staff gave helpful information about a local bakery. There was coffee and tea available near the foyer..
The hotel has some steep steps at the main entrance without an obvious ramp. This might be difficult with heavy luggage.
