Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Room was definitely neglected. Deadbolt was falling off. Thermostats are set to weird schedules and one will wake up sweating. Had to go to the front desk a few times to get a thermostat issue resolved. Tried calling from the room but no one answered. Booked two rooms and assumed they would be next to each other. They were at least on the same floor but a decent distance away.
Room was clean and spacious with comfortable beds. Hotel is located just a few steps from subway (green line), and there is a Trader Joe’s about 6 minutes away walking distance from hotel.
One negative was that continental breakfast was included according to booking, however, during week days when we came down for breakfast, there were only small packs of peanut butter and jam but no bread at all and some leftovers of cereal even though we came one hour before end of breakfast. On weekend, there was actual continental breakfast.
Everything was great. Rooms were clean. Bathroom was clean. The continental breakfast could have more varieties. But overall is was a good stay. I will book here again
Over priced for the services they offer. Hotel felt mediocre and the a/c hardly worked. Room service wasn’t good, cleaned the room but never left toilet paper. Location is key for the rail service but the hotel can do better. Breakfast is the worst I’ve seen at a hotel. Open up the bar and possibly the kitchen and the hotel will be rocking and rolling.
While the room was clean, there was no coffee maker in the room. When I asked to get one, as it is listed in the room description, the front desk said they would do their best but I never got one. Additionally, the continental breakfast on the first day was just oatmeal packages and coffee. They did refund me my resort fee which was $50/day in addition to the fees I paid Travelocity. It was a nice gesture but as we had planned on being able to eat at the hotel, we dis not have enough time to eat elsewhere before our appointments in Boston.
The only complain was that during 2 mornings the breakfast was poor,not only bread.Today last morning,after complaining yesterday,we had a more fair breakfast
Only criticisms are beds are not as firm as I prefer and breakfast lacks protein options except boiled eggs (only one egg was left at 7am, and tasted off like it was from a poorly fed chicken).
Perfect location and very nice hotel with friendly staff and a very comfortable room with all the amenities. The coffee and water available in the lobby all day was a nice touch. Only minor complaint is the breakfast- not enough space to sit during the busy hours and fairly mediocre food- and no cream cheese for the bagels! But plenty of places nearby (including Tatte) to pick up breakfast, and Brookline is just the loveliest.
