It was a very comfortable room and the service was great, however, the bathroom didn’t have its own heat and was a little cold. Also there was no hand soap in the bathroom.

Hotel AKA Back Bay was all that I could have asked for. The employees were friendly and attentive, and the decor was both modern and infused with a sense of history. I would definitely return when visiting Boston.

What a great find!
From the moment we pulled in, we were greeted by a friendly staff who took care of the car, bags and easy check-in. Totally renovated hotel in a great location. Rooms are super clean with great amenities. The restaurant and bar are located on the lower level with access to outdoor seating. I will not even think about staying anywhere else in the future and would highly recommend.
