The room/unit we were in was above shake shack so you could here the music and noise from the restaurant. Location was great for us though it was Midway between fenway and Boston common in back bay. We took the free logan express bus to back bay and the room was 1 block away. Only $3 to go back to the airport.
Very close to basic necessities and close to the station. Place was relatively clean. Would recommend. Just for other peolle looking at this place to stay the only downside is that there isnt any elevator. It was a good workout going up and down the stairs.

Disliked: Amenities
Pros: Location - right on Newbury St.
Cons:
1. Dumpsters being unloaded every night we stayed between the hours of 2-4 AM?! It woke us up every night- don’t understand why this wasn’t disclosed to us.
2. When booking it said crib was included. I had to request it 3 times to confirm it was added to the reservation. Upon delivery this was a pack and play that didn’t even fit in the master bedroom so the baby had to stay in the noisiest area.
3. Left 4 towels and 1 roll of toilet paper for 3 adults for 4 days/3 nights. When we ran out of toilet paper and asked for additional towels, I was told no one would be available for 24 hours and to purchase it on my own and they would refund me. Once I sent the receipt they gave me “Sonder credits” not a refund. I had to go back and forth for hours on a chat to correct this.
4. The heating/air. Not sure what was going on but it was 78 degrees in our room and in any attempt to turn it down it would just stay there.
I will finish by saying I travel very frequently and it takes a lot for me to write a negative review. I am so unsure how this property doesn’t have a lower rating. I would say you can definitely find a better place in the Back Bay Area before choosing to stay here.
