An amazing bed and breakfast run by an amazing lady, this was my first 'home' in Boston when I came…read moreover for a few nights for my interview. I'd recommend it to anyone who needs somewhere to stay in Boston whilst on business or visiting a friend. Highly praised in Time Out's guide to Boston, this Fenway brownstone house did not disappoint at all. The interior is lovingly kept in original 19 century decor and Florence has an amazing collection of dolls as well as a whole room for her shoes and hats. At 80 dollars a night it was a bargain for a truly special room that could well have been in a museum. The bathroom was hip with a great toilet, and it was conveniently close to several T stops. The real gem though was Ms Frances, who was truly charming and had quite amazing stories. She has flags for every guest to show their nationality, and of the 50 or so flags she owns she's been to pretty much every country - including Iran. An introduction to her hat collection is quite a treat too. What a life she has led! She even had a free guest pass for me for the Museum of Fine Arts.

Mrs Frances is a perfect host and she can be at the same time discrete and full of attentions for her guests. There is a small but lovely Coffe House (Tatte) with free WiFi very close to it.

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.

We were on our way out to Fenway, so the friendly gentleman at the front desk was kind enough to give us walking directions after he showed us around the guest spaces and our room. Location: 5 : an easy 10 minute walk to Fenway, a 12 minute walk to the Commons. A wealth of eating options, safe secure and walkable in every direction. Room: 5 Our room was impeccable with impressive personal touches and attention to detail. Little things like Fiji water, fresh soft towels (and a black towel for makeup), full array of toiletries, and a welcoming comfortable firm bed. Despite having alllll the things to do in Boston, I was excited to get back to that room and that bed, and I slept like a log. I like a good bed when I'm traveling and I would never stay at another place if I had the option. My favorite aspect was having a separate bedroom and living area (with pull out couch). All things comparable, I've stayed in a thousand hotels, I've traveled Boston thoroughly. This will be my go-to forever. Whether traveling single, as a couple, or with my kids, I will look at 284 first and foremost. Kid-friendly: yes! I would definitely stay here with my kids (ages 9, 11, 13). Safe, fun, welcoming, and wallet-friendly. Special bonus and wow impression: each room is themed after a different artist. I love love love this concept and intrigued me a thousand times over. I ave a personal goal to stay in every room now.

I was in the room the whole time though. I stayed about a week in Nov. It's like a 5-10 min walk from the convention center. There is pastries and bagels and milk for breakfast and other items. There's a fridge you can use. There's like a rule to put your name on your stuff if you use the fridge. I didn't follow the rule. I just bought a beer and put it in there and drank it the next day. No big problem. I think my favorite part was that on the day I was checking out they let me leave my carry on bag and backpack and I could come back for it later. I would definitely stay here again. I got the chance to explore the backbay area of Boston. This places isn't a five star hotel but I think it's five star for the type of place that it is. Back to my favorite part, on the day when I checked out I was able to check out and go out for a huge walk and come back and pick up my stuff.

Queen bed, access to quaint balcony, easy access to our parking space in Public Alley 903. Breakfast was a light but suitable offering ~ boiled eggs, fruit, pastries and coffee/tea. Our room included a bathroom (bath on the hall is also available.) The shower in 315 is TINY ~ tiny home or motor home tiny. Still, it got the job done. We slept well and had a quiet night despite the business of the alley (deliveries, trash pickup) going on behind us. Innkeepers were kind and helpful. If you need an affordable Boston stopover that provides a clean place to sleep and serve as home base for Boston adventures, the Oasis may fit the bill. Notes: narrow, curving stairs. No elevator. Their website gives all the information and is quite accurate.

Clearly every effort has been and is being made to accommodate guests. The lady on the desk was professional and very patient with a tired traveler whose GPS had taken him and his traveling companion to the wrong address, the affiliate location, 1750 Beacon Street. This was in spite of a phone call informing us of the issue and an inquiry to confirm that we would arrive before 9:00 P.M. when the front desk closes for the night until 8:00 A.M. the next morning. The location was perfect for the early morning medical appointment which occasioned our stay. If you are a light sleeper and in Beacon Street facing rooms, the trolley passing from 6:00 A.M until Midnight might be a problem. However, this is a city location. Normal traffic noises are not an issue. Booking.com failed to inform us that our reservation was for Room #7 which has a private bathroom across the hall, not in the room. In fairness to the Beacon Inn, this is properly noted on the Beacon Inn website. The room was spotless neat and clean with extra blankets. Heating and ventilation was fine. The bathroom was equally clean and properly equipped. Bring your own hair dryer. Perhaps, we should concluded on our own that our room would be up three flights of stairs with rooms another flight above, no elevator, not easy for access for anyone with mobility issues. The price of $116 plus an additional $36 for parking was extremely reasonable for the location in Greater Boston. Parking was convenient and close with excellent, in person direction on how to access. Breakfast starts some time after 8:00 A.M. We left at 7:15 for an early medical appointment. Reading previous reviews, it is clear that significant efforts with notable success have been made to correct deficiencies.

This is quite simply the best lodging experience I've had in my life. With Boston hotels and…read moremotels, so expensive, to find something that's truly in the heart of the city, in (relative) walking distance to Fenway Park and the Boston Garden, I cannot believe how nice the units were. But more than anything else were the owners - they are unbelievable people, and acted like long-term friends, whenever any request of mine came up. By the end of my stay, all I could think about was how nice it would be to live in an apartment like that with neighbors like that on the street like that. Just incredibly charming, peaceful, and yet with all the comfort amenities, like great TV, air conditioning, kitchen, parking, just everything.... I really couldn't recommend enough, especially if you are a working professional in Boston for an extended stay, or a family needing to be in the area for the local hospitals, which are again only about a 20min *walk* away. I think one thing that says it all is that a few nights into my stay, I found a deck of cards in the drawer next to the bed. I opened it up to play a game, and then saw that people for the past decade or so had been writing their names, and the place they traveled from on the cards. I thought this was a beautiful gesture, that the Inn owners actually had no idea about, but that I hope continues in the years to come. It's clear this place meant a lot to all those people, it meant a lot to me, and I'm sure it will mean a lot to you if you get a chance to stay in the wonderful, one-of-a-kind, Fort Hill Inn.

Great location and friendly staff for the most part. However, the building itself was…read moredisappointing: it smelled moldy and musty and the rooms were very dusty. It did not feel clean and I doubt the bedding was fresh. Plus, we had to wait over 20 minutes to check in because the front desk person was on break, despite the fact that they called and asked when we would be arriving. We showed up at the estimated time and no one was there. I was not pleased that the keys were required to be store in an unlocked cabinet by the desk. Anyone could've taken the keys to my car. Our room was on the 4th floor--quite a hike up very narrow stairs. Breakfast was disappointing to say the least--not much available and kind of a dirty presentation. Our tv had 10 working channels!

Our first night there were no issues parking. The 2nd day (9/15) we left the property early in the day and went to a concert that evening at Fenway. I received a call during the day asking when we would be returning. I couldn't give an answer because I didn't know. Then during the concert I received a text advising me to park a block away from the property due to ongoing construction. this should not have had anything to do with the spots behind the property. The signs for no parking on the street in front of the building stated 9/17 and 9/18, had nothing to do with the dates that we were there. i requested a refund for having to park on the street a block away from the building. They will not give a refund. I responded to the text asking for a refund, they did not answer. I sent an email, received a call and explained again what happened. She had to call me back. The call back was that there would be no refund and stated that the agreement was that if I got a ticket for parking on the street they would cover it. I asked for the owner to call me. I then sent 2 more emails. One that shows an screenshot of the website to reserve parking after making a reservation if needed and another with a picture of the agreement that I signed reserving parking. These people are a thieves. Take your money to reserve parking but then don't guarantee you a spot. Additionally, a fire alarm was going off on the morning of 9/15. There was no direction from anyone as to where to go and what to do. The bathroom is not clean. The shower has soap scum and the bathroom floor was dirty. The shower liner was also yellowed with soap scum. There weren't enough towels for our stay. There is a table on our floor that stated to take towels from there if need but there were no towels. No one was available in the early morning hours to get towels from. The front door to the inn did not close all the way and was easily accessible to anyone after hours. The refrigerator in the room did not work properly and froze our drinks and food. There was dust and a dirty washcloth under the bed. I do NOT recommend this property at all.
