I can't recommend The College Club of Boston enough. It's a beautiful victorian style building. Old…read morefashioned, but truly iconic. I was staying for 2 nights, my first time in the city. 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.

What a great start to my first trip to Boston! I wanted something special, not a generic hotel…read moreroom. I fell in love with this place as soon as I saw the listing. I lucked out with a room availability and spent the next month eagerly anticipating my stay. Why? The neighborhood looked great and the room decor looked even better. From the moment my Lyft pulled up in front of the distinctive purple house I knew I'd picked the right spot. The owner is on site to check you in, answer any questions you have about where to go, and if you ask her about the area ghosts maybe she'll let you borrow the local psychic's book too. While I didn't sense any spirits myself while I walked around Charlestown, I still enoyed reading it. I loved the neighborhood. When you're in Charlestown you're in Boston but you're not IN Boston. You're a short ride or nice walk to the heart of the Italian restaurant filled North End. You can happily begin a trek down the Freedom Trail heading towards downtown and be there in less than an hour after seeing numerous historical sites. The first two Freedom Trail locations, Bunker Hill and the USS Constitution, are a short scenic stroll from the Moroccan. Along the nearby streets you'll find charming shops, tasty restaurants, and so many cute houses lining the way. It's very walkable and has a quiet neighborhood vibe that I loved much more than staying in the much noisier downtown area. And there's a convience store (777 Convenience) super close by for any beverages or snacks you'd like to stock in the fridge. As for the Moroccan itself, listed on Google and Booking as Moroccan Boutique Guest House, the rooms are all unique. The King Suite I booked is the entire 3rd floor. While I don't love a lot of stairs after a long day of walking, there's something charming about those old creaky stairs that led to my own little oasis. The house was built in 1799 if I rememeber correctly, which means you get all the hardwood floors and ceiling beams that some call wonky and others call charming. The fireplaces aren't for fire which was fine by me. The living room area had a tv, some books and magazines to read, a very comfortable couch for lounging, and kitchen with all the supplies if you wanted to buy groceries to be your own chef. Elizabeth does leave you some bowl packs of Cheerios and a small container of milk in addition to a large bottle of water. There's also a printed list of restaurant recs included with her welcome info that I loved. I already had a bunch of places bookmarked for my trip, but I assume the less Yelpy find that list incredibly helpful. The bathroom was my favorite of the trip. Spacious shower, nice tolietries, a decorative sink, and comfy bathrobes were a nice touch. The bedroom was exactly like the pictures! The bed, a giant marshmallow with soft sheets and purple drapes, king sized of course, was a dream. It was the most comfortable bed of the 4 of the trip. We missed it every time we met a new bed that was pretty meh by comparison to its softness. From the location to the furniture to decorative touches, we loved everything about this place. If you're heading to Boston check the availability. If you're lucky, there may be a room for you. The next time I head to Boston I hope my luck holds.

Even though our room had abundance of space, charm, and amenities.....it must be noted that the property is over 200 years old and has the quirky qualities associated with the ancient architecture. Please be aware that the floor is crooked and creaky, the TV's are from the 1990s, very small and grainy resolution. But we did not travel 3000 miles to Boston to watch television! And if you are 6'3" or taller, the low ceiling height on doorways is going to be a problem! I'm 6'1" and barely cleared them.... The service is exactly as one would expect at this price, and they exceeded our expectations. Everything you could possibly want is provided, including all of the fixings for a gourmet Continental breakfast.

First off, I requested a 2 bathroom apartment, and was told - via the…read more phone - that ALL of the apartments were 2 bathroom. Well, the one at 113 Beacon street isn't. It's not even 1 and 1/2 bath. More like 1 and 1/8 bath. I've never seen such a tiny, cramped area described as a 1/2 bath before. When I sat on the toilet, my knees touched the far wall & my shoulder touched the sink. And I'm not a big guy. 6' - 210 lbs. So I ended up sitting diagonally on the toilet. Fortunately, as I sat there, wedged uncomfortably between toilet and wall, I was able to look at the quality of the bathroom. And I must wonder where you get your workmen, since the grout work looks like it was done with someone's finger, rather than a grouting tool. But I shouldn't complain, since at least the 1/8 bath has a fan. The upstairs bathroom does not! Well, technically, but since it doesn't actually work, I don't think that we should count that one. Now, during our stay, Boston had some chilly and some warm nights. And we suffered through both. The windows leak like sieves, and the downstairs bedroom - or 'closet' - got uncomfortably chilly. And there are no extra blankets, etc. to help with this. Then, when the weather got warm, it actually got worse. And, as I should have guessed, the windows can't be opened, since they are apparently painted shut- therefore the main living area got stuffy and warm. I would have used the overhead fan shown in the picture they sent me, except it doesn't actually exist. Another anomaly is the windows displayed in the picture. You can see the outside. The windows where we stayed at are FILTHY. I'm not actually sure that light can get in. And the blinds are disgustingly dirty also. Then there's the living area. First, the picture of the living area provided was TOTALLY MISLEADING. The TV is NOT mounted to the wall, and there are dangling wires - not in this photo though. Even the picture in their photo is hung correctly. In the apartment we were in, it's just propped up on top of the mantel. There was no attractive floor rug, just beat up and scuffed flooring. Maybe if you had brooms,etc. people could clean the floor rather than continually grind up the floors? God knows the floor was gritty from day one when we first walked in. Interestingly enough, the "seating area" by the bay window isn't in this photo either. Although none of us could sit there long since the padding on the bench is thinner than a weak cup of coffee. So I'm not even sure we stayed at the apartment that we received pictures of. And let's talk about the kitchen. In the provided photo, the sink is next to a STOVE. No so in real life! And the sink in the promotional photos has a GOLDEN faucet arm. My sink did not. As a matter of fact, my sink doesn't even have a SPRAYER, since it's been broken for god knows how long. The sprayer button is missing. The refrigerator was interesting. It NEVER stops running. EVER! But, before a repairman arrives,I hope they clean the fridge a bit, since it's rather disgusting. At least, I consider rust stains...at least I hope they're rust stains...to be unattractive. And the small white ice cube tray is cracked and broken. Fortunately, we didn't have to wash a lot of dishes, since they were already washed. And still in the dishwasher. The B&B agency must expect their clients to empty the dishwasher? And I'm not done talking about FANS. The fan upstairs cannot be legally called a fan unless it has BLADES, which it doesn't. So this didn't provide much air movement, as you might imagine. Then, we have the mirrors in the living area. A broken mirror that is "fixed" by smearing silicone caulk over it? And slightly to the right of the crack, we come to the door bell. Which has no cover, just dangly wires. Now, I have a lot of other complaints...such as the bedroom...the one downstairs is more of an oversized closet.....but I'm going to skip over that. And the fact that the apartment wasn't clean when we arrived - when the previous tenants had been gone since Sunday? Or the fact that there weren't any extra garbage bags...or that clean bedding was never delivered....eh, skip over that too, shall we? But this, I cannot skip. I've never been in a motel, hotel, house, tent, RV, or even a frat house that gave me the willies as much as their light shade does. It looks like something out of an episode of CSI: Las Vegas. And I took a picture with the light ON, so you really aren't clearly seeing the full horrific effect of the stains outer regions. I honestly believe that based on all of the above.....and the dozens of other things I didn't mention...that I should get a refund of some sort. But, based on what I saw versus what was delivered , I'm not going to hold my breath.

We booked a room at Boston Yacht Haven Inn and were thrilled from the moment we arrived. The room was beautifully decorated, but the real standout was the spectacular balcony view. The staff surprised us with a complimentary bottle of prosecco, and the fresh baked cookies available in the hallway were a great touch. We had everyone meet us at the inn before dinner and spent time together in the Captains Room, which is BYOB, then took a short walk to Hanover Street for an amazing meal followed by after-dinner drinks and desserts. The best part was ending the night back at BYHI&M, relaxing together again in the Captains Room. The next morning, the included breakfast delivered right to our room was the perfect finishing touch. Great food, great views, great experience. We will definitely be returning.

(I think) But not staying at the front desk. They do have a complimentary breakfast. They do have an incredible view! And feel little isolated in a great way because this inn on the edge of the bay, but not really isolated physically. I will be staying here if the room is available every time I will come to Boston. I am hesitated to announce this jewel. I almost want to hide. But if you have chance enjoy staying here. If you need attention all the time from the staff, this may not be your place. When the staff is around, they are such a friendly kind staff. I love them.

We stayed in July; when I asked if our room could be cooler, the hostess said no, she preferred it warmer, and we would "freeze her out" if she turned the air down any lower. She suggested leaving our room door open to get cool air from the hall or bathroom. The kitchen was definitely "off-limits" so if we wanted water we were told to get it from the bathroom tap. There would be no ice, and the bottled water was absolutely only ever for when we went out, no exceptions! The room was cluttered: I counted three throw rugs stacked on top of each other in one place. Creepy dark-feathered wreaths in each window, like some kind of Victorian house of ill-repute. The hostess was relentlessly talkative. In order to get her to stop giving us sightseeing tips and rehashing rules at 10:00 at night, I had to tell her "we are going to sleep now" to get her to go away. She had an appointment in the morning so there would be no breakfast, but the hostess said we would find power bars in the dining room. We left the power bars, and let her keep the $20. "key return" fee as well as the cost of the second night.

It is a very easy 3 min or so walk there and to the wharf area. When I got here the lady at the desk was very nice and pretty chatty. Very welcoming. When I checked into my room it felt very dark. When I turned on the light it was better through I wanted the natural light from outside but I had no idea how to pull the shades up, as the closet little makeshift area was blocking it. The bed frame as you can see is bigger than the mattress. Bed is very soft and a bit low to the ground like you sink in to it. Not my type of comfortable bed. When I saw the bathroom it was very white, bright and huge! It was like another bedroom area. The sink I must say is soo small for such a big table area. Since the bed is low I almost hit my head while tossing and turning on the corner of the nightstand. Luckily I didn't. Also, as you can maybe see there was under the sink the covering for the sink pipes looked like it was a bit cracked. Also, the AC/ heat system looked like it was coming off the wall. Not sure if it was supposed to look like that. Room was small but since I was only here for less than 24 hours I just dealt with it. Oh one last thing in my room the hook on the door did not seem to close all the way due to the deadbolt like blocking it. When I had come back from my night out, I was a bit confused as to why no one was at the desk. But than realized there was some one in the back area of the desk area. This person did not seem like the friendliest and seemed a bit confused as to why I was asking the question I did. The person that was at the desk when I checked out super early seemed alot nicer. All in all, the staff for the most part seemed friendly. There is a small bar in the back area of the lobby and they have a little restaurant section. I did not get to check out the food or the bar area but when I took a peak I saw it. This is a prime spot to stay as I said before if you are seeing a sporting event or concert at the TD garden. But other than that not sure when the next time I would be back.

The bed was plenty comfy and the room and bathroom itself were fine - the room could maybe use some more outlets. The size was fine, I saw people complaining about the size of the rooms, but it was fine for two people - and we had just come back from a trip to Japan, so any traditional American hotel room is pretty gargantuan in comparison.
