Summary: It’s right off Harvard Sq with lots of nice college town vibe.
Philip Sep 20, 2025 08:55:09 PM
Summary: Nice small hotel with thoughtfully designed rooms. My twin room was small but with plenty of hooks, hangers, and drawers to put my things so a 3 night stay was very comfortable. Nice toiletries, great service by staff.

Summary: The hotel is good but very ordinary in a great location. Our use was a very simple overnight stay for an event in Arlington, and it worked well

Summary: The location is very convenient, with bus stops and train station minutes away. Cute restaurants nearby both walking distance And short bus ride away. You can go to Tufts, Harvard, MIT, BU, BC, Northeastern by public transportation with pretty reliable service. The hotel itself doesn't have a gym, but guests have 24 hour access to the gym at its sister hotel 2 minutes away.

Summary: Our room and the whole property was very clean and well taken care of. That is why we've stayed here more than once. Convenient to the T as well.

Summary: Valet parking was easy and fast. Hotel staff was friendly and check in was fast. This hotel is across the street from the T. The room was small but I personally didn’t mind this. The bed was not comfortable at all. The toilet sounded like it struggled to flush. The shower grout could use a good cleaning or replacement. The overall hotel is okay. There’s only 1 elevator that’s used by cleaning staff and guests and it always had a sour smell.

Summary: After taking 7 long hours of class everyday I couldn’t wait to head back to my room. it was very quiet and offered me time to relax and review my notes.

Summary: Great location. Lovely and convenient. Excellent customer service. Very friendly and kind staff. The only tiny issue was that the sliding door in the bathroom wouldn’t stay closed so we had to stuff small towels into it to keep it closed :)
