10/10 Exceptional

The room was nice. They upgraded us to a balcony room, which was extremely convenient. Heated floor in the bathroom was perfect on this cold day. The staff was helpful, convenient parking underground, no problem even though the valet was not on duty. Location ws very convenient to attend a concert in your by Davis Square and Friendly Toast is almost right across the street for amazing breakfast.

I reported the television was not working on four different occasions, on separate days, to multiple front desk staff. The issue was never resolved so I didn’t receive the value of the room I purchased.

eugene, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

The property was clean and well maintained. The rooms were comfortable. They do not have in room referigerators but there is one in the lobby you can use. The valet parking did not always have a valet available and the lot was difficult to drive in and out of without the valet. All in all a great property and we plan to return.
