I had a mixed experience at this hotel. The rooms were not so big but very well located inside the building and within the city. The people at the front desk were charming and helpful. It was unpleasantly cold at night with no ability to control the temperature as they heat or air condition by the calendar. However, the room had convenient amenities like a coffee maker, mini bar, extra towels, WiFi, phone charger, and extra blankets, despite having to split charges across two credit cards upon arrival.

The service was amazing at this cozy hotel. The staff members were very friendly and made me feel comfortable, almost like family. I would definitely stay here again to enjoy the comfort, food, excellent location, and most importantly the friendly staff.
Location

The location was terrific, offering great access to Boston & Cambridge. It was right across the street from transit red line, allowing easy access in and out of Boston. However, it was impractical for breakfast as it was a long way away from where the buffet was laid out down some stairs or a ramp.
Dining
9.0
The dining experience was wonderful. I enjoyed one of the best free breakfasts I've ever had during my stay. The complimentary breakfast had a great assortment of fresh, high-quality offerings, a notch above typical chain restaurants. There was a choice between regular coffee and an automated espresso machine.
Facilities

The facilities were ample and well-maintained. However, there was lots of wasted energy all over the hotel, making it not the most environmentally friendly option.

My stay at the hotel was fantastic! The rooms were well-appointed with lovely colors and decorations, although a bit tight for three suitcases. We truly enjoyed our time here and would highly recommend this hotel. The Dyson hairdryers were a nice touch.

The location of the hotel is perfect, especially for anyone visiting MIT or wanting to explore Kendall Square. Being right next to the T red line provides easy access to Boston & Cambridge. It's also great for those on a college tour of northeast schools.

The dining experience was top-notch! The 'American buffet breakfast' was one of the best I've had outside a 5-star hotel. The use of real maple syrup for the waffles was a delightful touch. The Black Sheep dining area was a cozy spot to enjoy meals.

My stay at the hotel was simply wonderful. The room, though a little small, was clean and having breakfast included was very convenient for my campus visit. Each room was uniquely decorated, adding a special touch to the stay. The service was incredible, with quick and knowledgeable staff. The location was perfect, being close to the Kendall T station, which made exploring Cambridge and MIT a breeze. The dining experience, though limited for vegetarians, was generous and the facilities were top-notch.

The hotel is conveniently located near public transportation and major attractions like MIT. The rooms were clean and quiet, but controlling the temperature could be an issue. The staff goes above and beyond to ensure a comfortable stay, including accommodating special requests. The dining experience offers a variety of delicious options beyond the standard fare. Overall, a good value for the location.

I was welcomed into a cozy bed in a room that's charmingly decorated. The check-in was smooth, even though the room was a little dark. Overall, it was a perfect stay - spotless, quiet, great bed, nice robes, comfortable couch with a reading light, plenty of power outlets, excellent shower that also had a bath, and a good coffee maker.
