"Room is small, smaller than college dorm room. Do not expect to do anything but shower and sleep in room. Bed is awkward for two people. Lighting controls are confusing. Maybe this is normal for downtown Boston. Do not recommend as a place to stay unless you just have to be in downtown for your stay."
