This is a cool experience with a great concept - an experiment in being citizen of the world, of wherever you are. The quirky (in a refreshing, not cloying way) and artful (in the sense of being full of contemporary art) approach to a stay is fantastic. Views are great, staff is awesome, the rooms can feel a bit cramped if you spend too much time in them (especially with the shades drawn), but they have an awesome common area to hang or do work, which is ample. The canteen is great, especially the breakfast—legitimately great food, all you can eat (including barista drinks) and it’s a steal for 22 USD (as of Dec2024). Only downside is absolutely zero parking, which is not uncommon in Boston, but having a car here is an absolute nightmare. Public transit is steps away and plentiful.

Perfect for coupled. Small rooms, but manageable and the views and large bed make up for it.

I liked the community space and comfort of the entire hotel. The staff were friendly and I was welcomed very warmly. The breakfast was good for a quick bite. Most importantly, I enjoyed the modernization and comfort of the room and its amenities. I'd definitely stay here again!

Great for one person crashing with no car. Parking is a nightmare. 0 front desk services. Phone number is a call center. I’m a Boston native and this was difficult to navigate even for me. (Boston rains and snows A LOT) so closest parking garage being a .5mi walk is not ideal. If you book this place, uber only. Left the rental in the car garage the entire trip.
