Boston is an incredibly walkable city, and aside from the JFK Library, I was impressed at how close the hostel was to so many iconic locations: Beacon Street, the Commons, City Hall, and the Boston Public Library, just to name a few. I loved how I didn't need a car to get to any of those locations, because everything was walking distance. The hostel itself was outstanding. I loved that for guests, there's a dedicated floor for pool, hanging out, a kitchen area to eat and cook, etc., but I also loved the daily activities they had for guests: On the night I stayed, they had a drinks mixer to meet people, and I got to meet people from Peru, Germany, New Jersey, Australia, Hong Kong, the Netherlands, and other places. We did a bar crawl based on availability and who the staff knew and had relationships with. The staff took us to the bar where the Founders planned the Boston Tea Party. As a guy who loves history and reads about history and travels to places for its historical sites, there was genuinely nothing cooler than being to go get a drink at the same bar where our Founders planned to throw tea into the Harbor. I have to warn people that I thought about bringing a lock before my stay, but I didn't. The front desk has locks for $8 in case you need something. The bathrooms were well maintained, and the bathrooms had soap and shampoo. I would highly recommend this place to anyone looking for a place where the staff will facilitate ways for you to meet people and hang out.

Located centrally between Chinatown and the Theatre District, and a simple one block walk from the United States first park, The Common, similarly to the first subway - The T. From Boston's downtown hostel, all things tourist are well within walking distance. Want to go a bit further, perhaps Salem? Hop on the nearby and easily used train system. Not to mention free guided tours and events, welcoming staff, and clean private sleeping areas. Oh, and the restrooms, private - none shared - how is that not a bonus when traveling on the cheap? Have I glossed over the entire floor dedicated to amenities? Pool, TV, Nomadic Focused Work Area, Full Commercial Level Kitchen, Dining Room with a View, Laundry, and more~! HI Boston Hostel is my top choice for a safe warm and cozy base of operations every time I travel through the area.

I was very unsure which area to stay in, but I'm so happy I chose CCB because the location is absolutely perfect. Back Bay is very nice and safe. You even have a wonderful park just outside the doorstep to walk around, and the lovely Boston Commons only two blocks away. Check-in/out was one of the most seamless experiences I've had with hotels/airbnbs. I didn't have to check in with anyone, and I received the door code a few days before. They have a lovely dining room for guests with homemade cookies, fruit, coffee and tea. Unfortunately I didn't take advantage of the breakfast, but I'm sure it's great too. CCB is really the perfect mix of a hotel and bed/breakfast. I was unsure about doing the solo room with a shared bathroom, but other than having to wait for the other guest to finish his shower so I could take an urgent bio break, it was no issue at all and I would hands down do it again. I'm pretty sure the other floors have a bathroom if you absolutely need it though. For the location, price, comfort, and amenities, College Club of Boston is a no brainer. I got the please to quickly meet the GM on my way out, and she is super sweet. I even left my airpods in the room, and without hesitation they are shipping them back to me. 5 starts forsure.

If you are looking for a place that's cozy, close to everything, and where you can talk to someone who truly knows the area, look no further.

Our place had a kitchen with large refrigerator, stove with two burners, microwave, toaster oven, dishwasher, sink, plates and glasses. All very clean and convenient. The shower was modern and glass enclosed. A few things that could be improved could the the paper goods (paper towels and toilet paper were not the best quality, and the internet was a bit sporadic and slow - speeds sometimes of only about 1-2 Mbps). We loved the comfortable bed. Firm but not too firm and our pillows were all very nice...a total of six of them....making it very good for me since I like to have at least two when I go to sleep.

Here live people who are going through very difficult moments in life: people in need, an elderly disabled man who can barely move, a family with a small child. What makes this place truly special is that no one is ignored and no one is treated as "less than." Every person here is met with warmth, patience, respect, and genuine care. The owner's name is John , he is true man with big heart who will never ignore your situation John. This young and handsome man has a lot of empathy towards his guests! And that simplicity says everything about him. He never walks past someone who needs help. He treats people with heart, kindness, and dignity, and you can feel that this place exists because he truly cares about people, not profit. The managers here -- Matthew and Luis, and the wonderful girls who work alongside them -- are incredibly kind, attentive, and human. You feel welcomed, not judged. You feel safe. The hotel itself is very cozy, calm, and beautiful in its Victorian style. It feels warm and familiar, like home. There is a sense of peace here, a feeling that you can finally breathe and rest. During one of the hardest moments of our lives, they allowed us to stay five nights for free, and that kindness meant more than words can express. I tried to give back in every way I could -- I cleaned the hotel and washed floors on all the floors, because this place deserves care and gratitude. Yesterday we paid, and today I will finish paying what remains, but what will stay with me forever is not the money -- it is the humanity we were shown. This is a rare place, filled with heart, compassion, and love for people. Thank you for being who you are and for helping those who truly need it.

It is situated right near the Old South Meeting House and the Old State Building, which is smack-dab in the middle of the Freedom Trail. Public transit is about 1 block away on all sides and rideshare drivers can pick you up right out front for easy access. We even had UberEats deliveries that were really easy to navigate. The room is clean and spacious and has plenty of amenities. We had a single queen with a standing shower, a desk with 2 chairs, a kitchenette with a sink, microwave, mini fridge, and even a small electric stovetop. A great room for a great price. The only thing I wish was different is the toilet: you have to "pump" the flush handle to get it to clear out, but it's manageable after you get the hang of it. The staff working here are attentive and kind. Juberto helped us with check in and check out (even let us check out an hour later at 1pm), and gave a friendly greeting every time we walked through the door. The English pub downstairs, Elephant & Castle, is a great respite after a long day sight-seeing and we appreciate Jimmy so much for how welcome he made us feel. We will definitely be coming back here! Thank you!

It was so odd because the manager was helping people use the kiosk, but if he had just checked us in himself at the desk it would have been faster and more pleasant.
