From the moment we were greeted by Rudy the doorman and throughout the stay; the entire staff was kind, courteous and professional. The area felt safe and had the added security of needing a key card to access your floor. The valet parking was on the expensive side but was efficient. If in the area again, I would definitely choose this hotel.

We were trying to find a hotel in Boston for a last-minute getaway and it appeared. It met all of our needs. When we got there, it was even better than expected. Restaurant food was incredible and so with the drinks. Rooms were clean, updated, and great style. Lighting was amazing. Small little detail details here and there that just made the day perfect.
