"The place was as advertised: clean, within walking distance to a lot of places. Note that Its central location, while convenient, is also a drawback due to road noise. Make sure you pack a very good set of ear plugs, not the foam cheapo ones that airlines give you for free. You will need them to block out the traffic noise from below your bedroom window."

Overall we had a wonderful stay, the hotel is super cute and very clean! They have a restaurant attached which is super convenient as well as a 7/11 on the concern. It’s less than a 1 min walk from the train station and very easy to get too from the airport. It’s very central to everything in the north end and near a lot of tourist attractions. Would 10/10 recommend. Very walkable city!

Nice little boutique hotel. Small room is trade off for being super close to Boston Common, tons of restaurants, and river trails. 20 minute walk to Fenway was big plus. On foot was best way to get there.

Great location- Matthaus was great. Very clean but definitely not the Hilton in terms of comfort (no tv, about 100 sq ft). Mattress was the equivalent of a pull out couch but a great experience for the price which was about 1/3 of the downtown rates for that night. If you are just looking for a great location for TD Garden for a couple of nights, this fits the bill. Overall a very good experience for a lot of reasons. Thank you, Matthaus!

In town for a Red Sox vs Yankees game and stayed at The Arcadian. A great choice! Perfect walkable location to Fenway Park (0.8 miles). Beautiful hotel, friendly staff, nicely appointed rooms with very comfortable beds, good sized gym, and very tasty continental breakfast (pastries, fruit, yogurt, meats & cheeses, juices/coffee, cereals). Multiple dining options within blocks (sushi, bbq, Mexican, ice cream, etc., etc.) and Dunkin Donuts close by too.
