Right across the street from Hynes Convention Center T stop and within walking distance of great shopping and dining. I would highly recommend this hotel to solo travelers as the room is small, but very clean and safe.

Will Stay Here Again

Fantastic staff and location. We will definitely be back.
Kevin, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

A cruise ship sized room with universal remote capabilities ..It's not fancy but it's unique and extremely easy to adjust to. My favorite part is mood lighting and soundproof feel topped with electric dark and day window screen technology and quirky signage. This location is one of the best for back bay access .

Janette, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Had several options to choose from close to the Hynes Convention Center, and the price point was ideal. Great room, clean if not a bit sparse on amenities (no cups). Comfy. Love the tech to control the lights and environment via iPad touch.

Very easy, very clean, super quiet given the amount of rooms. Incredibly affordable especially since you couldn’t ask to be in a better part of town. All in all a great option, I will definitely stay here again on any future trip to the area.

Pleasant surprise

Great hotel - very tech oriented but easy to adjust to. Small but smartly appointed rooms that were super clean and comfortable. Lots of space in the lobby area to lounge or get food and drink at their well-stocked bar. Great location for Back Bay Boston. Everything easily accessible from hotel by walking or by train.

Absolutely loved this property! The check-in and check-out process was quick and easy and the location is perfect for tourists. Our room was clean and we had an incredible view of the city. We also enjoyed sitting at the bar and had their self-serve breakfast. I would definitely stay here again!
