Great location if you don’t...

Liked: Modern, spacious, refurbished and right next to Charles river and walking distance to various Harvard schools
Disliked: Incredibly expensive for what you get; I overlooked the top of a parking garage. Definitely not much a view

Overpriced but convenient

Liked: Convenient location
Disliked: Heightened - and unexplained - security presence with Dept of homeland Security, Secret Service, etc all over the place.Price gouging - certainly not worth $ 955. My weekend stay is the equivalent to one week in Sicily - and Harvard ain’t Sicily.

Unimpressed

Liked: The location was good, but I would travel further next time to stay in a better hotel at a better price. On the plus side, the bed was comfortable and the room was quiet and clean.
Disliked: The rooms were like upscale motel rooms at a VERY expensive price. I could have stayed at a top hotel in Boston for half the price. The front desk staff was not great. My colleague was waiting in the lobby for an hour and a half for her room to be ready and they did not bother to tell her that the room was ready. They did not apologize for making her wait unnecessarily. The towels were thin and there was nowhere to hang them. There was no luggage rack in the room. I think that they rely on their location to book their hotel.
