Summary of reviews
Guests say
Guests have praised the hotel for its excellent location near MIT and the friendly service provided by the staff, giving a warm and welcoming atmosphere. The character and charm of the hotel as a former firehouse have also garnered positive remarks, affirming its uniqueness compared to standard chain hotels. However, some guests expressed dissatisfaction with the breakfast options, noting it to be basic, and the noise from elevators in some rooms was mentioned as a downside. Overall, the hotel provides good value for the price.AI-Generated from customer reviews
