It is 30 min from downtown if you want to be closer to touristy activities I suggest a closer hotel. The hotel is very nice. The only thing was the parking was confusing they only have valet and it is right next to a bike lane. I got charged for parking my car but wasn’t told the cost until the end of my stay which was annoying.

Walking distance from Harvard Square and across the street from Porter subway station. The hotel is very cool: ultra modern with retro fittings.

Very quiet, clean and safe, but the room was comically small. You wouldn't be able to stay more than one night here. We could barely fit our luggage in the room with us

Tastefully decorated & great use of space. The room itself is very tight but that didn’t bother us. It had everything you would get in a regular chain hotel room including a sitting chair at the large picture window. I appreciated the smart ways they used the space. Staff was friendly & helpful. Really liked the valet parking.

Great place to use as a base for exploring Boston on public transport. T station right opposite, buy a day (or longer) Charlie card and travel all over on the public transport system. Easy links to airport and cruise port. No food at hotel but number of eateries within walking distance plus Neros coffee shop under he same roof.

Everything was excellent. The only complaint I have is the shower. The floor was extremely slippery and dangerous when rinsing the soap off your body.
