My stay at this hotel was a mixed experience. The rooms were clean and had sturdy wooden lockers, which was convenient, but sharing the space with rowdy college kids wasn't the most relaxing. The service ranged from helpful staff taking my requests seriously to some being outright rude, making me question their choice of work. The location near Chinatown had its charm but felt a bit insecure at night. The dining options were decent, though some more protein choices would have been appreciated.

I had a mixed experience at the hotel. The rooms were clean and had a sturdy wooden locker to keep my belongings secure, which I appreciated. However, the service was quite rude to the point where it made me question if they should be in the hospitality industry. The location was convenient, near many historical sites and subway stops, but the dining could be improved with more variety, especially in terms of offering fruits and protein. I found the amenities satisfactory, but there were some aspects that need improvement.

I stayed at the male dorm room 213, which was equipped with a sturdy wooden locker for my belongings. The shared bathroom provided total privacy. The hotel's location near the theaters in downtown Boston was a definite plus, but the service from the self-proclaimed manager was a bit rude.

My stay at the hotel was a mixed bag. The rooms were private and had free towels, but having only two beds made it a bit cramped. The service was a rollercoaster, with some claiming to be managers and being rude, while others took my requests seriously and made me feel more comfortable. The location in Chinatown was convenient, although it felt a bit unsecure at night. The dining was satisfying, especially with the delicious homemade cakes. Overall, a decent stay with some drawbacks.

The hostel is wonderfully located in the heart of the city center near all the tourist attractions Boston has to offer. The rooms, with sturdy bunks and free towels provided, were cozy and clean, but the service from the staff, who claimed to be managers, was subpar and could use more hospitality.
