Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities
Spacious, clean rooms with modern decor. I wish more hotels were like this. Great bathrooms, and convenient to many great restaurants. Easy walk to Cambridge/Harvard and the T. The staff went above and beyond at every level. Especially the in house restaurant. Excellent bartending and selection. Morning brunch was a comedy of errors but the management handled everything with the utmost professionalism and the food was excellent. I stay in a lot of hotels between Boston and NY and this is one of the best. Highly recommended.

We had a great stay. The hotel was just a little further away from Harvard Square as expected, partly because Harvard campus was closed and we had to walk around the campus.
