Very neat and clean for a hotel that’s 120 years old, employees at the service desk were courteous and helpful, I booked a room with a city view but honestly not much of a view from the 2nd floor was the only downfall, we will definitely stay there again someday.

Bed and pillows were very comfortable. Conveniently located and clean. Loved the local apples that were available for guests. The wine selection is very slim and what wine I tried was awful. Didn’t care for the food. The staff was very friendly and helpful.

Everything was fine until......this morning. Upon checking out I was told that the night worker who checked me in gave me the wrong parking instructions. This was after asking her 4 times to ensure I was parking in the correct parking garage. This was very disappointing especially since I paid more to park then expected.

The best room in the boxer is their cat bird rooms nestled in the apex of the building windows. The wrap around glass and odd geometry make it my favorite in the city. I put it up against The Ritz any day. The hotel itself is somewhat lacking. I checked in with a 7lb Yorkie and was told I’d have to pay a $100 cleaning fee which isn’t exactly pet friendly. Deposit yes, fee no. Definitely should be noted on Expedia.

The property was in close distance to TD Garden Arena. The hotel could have better parking don’t like you have to park a block away and walk to the hotel but other than that the hotel was excellent
