Great stay.
I stayed in a platinum queen. Very much worth the upgrade. The room was clean, the bed was comfortable, and the bathroom was really lovely. You are in close walking distance to everything in Back Bay and the train station.

What a great find!
From the moment we pulled in, we were greeted by a friendly staff who took care of the car, bags and easy check-in. Totally renovated hotel in a great location. Rooms are super clean with great amenities. The restaurant and bar are located on the lower level with access to outdoor seating. I will not even think about staying anywhere else in the future and would highly recommend.
