This is a Trusted Review. Why?
Awesome location, it couldn´t be better, in the heart of Back Bay.
Poor facilities, there´s not even water available at the place, neither intercom in case of an emergency. Staff is not as helpful as said, they would let me freezing cold with only one thin blanket, nor would turn the heater on because "it was (early) springtime!" - cold as 10º C.
The room had a noisy plumbing when other tenants would shower, and it was not claned up one single time during my 9 days stay. So wasn´t the (private) bathroom, which walls felt greasy to touch, and the floors looked something between blurred and dirty; better have your sandals on.
But if what matters is a priceless roof, it does it´s job in the overall, with a clean and confy bed (very thick hard pillow may cause a neck sprain), and a dresser - necessary to own an internet cable for access. Luggage has to go up the front stairs without no ramps, nor anyone´s help. They don´t have lockers, and have you sign you won´t blame them in case of lost or stolen objects from your room, better be careful. And they have a non-refund policy, in case you decide check out ahead of time. I would recommend it only with restrictions.
The room was nice and clean, but the showers and bathrooms were disgusting. The receptionists we talked to were neither friendly nor helpful and would not refund the money we overpaid because they put us in the wrong room: "If you had read our terms and conditions you would have known that we don't give refunds." Luggage room was unlocked half the time.
The location is very good, about a minute's walk from the streetcar stop. Also free use of the internet and fitness equipment (didn't try though). Pretty cheap if you're in a group of 3 - 4 people.
