Nice location, quiet neighborhood, I stayed in a single room without a bathroom, but no issues with a shared bathroom (but it’s probably not for everyone). Very clean throughout, and thoughtful staff.

This place was great. Good location as you can walk just about anywhere from this spot if you like walking. (If not there’s always the T not too far away). The staff were very helpful and pleasant. I was impressed with how clean and well maintained everything was. Breakfast was also very good, with a choice of bagels, and other breads, cereal, fruit yogurt, juice coffee and tea. Nice little breakfast area. For my money and time I prefer a place like this in an old neighborhood over a fancy hotel. It has character.

The property is very basic and old, which is fine, but too expensive for what it offers. The room was small and cleaning is only every other day. There is no proper laugage storage. Would be great if it wasn’t so expensive

Thank you for sharing your feedback.We're sorry you didn't enjoy your stay with us more than you did. Yes, the properties are old, but they are renovated and we got continual compliments on cleanliness. During the pandemic, to reduce exposure, we changed housekeeping to every other day. The feedback was positive, and guests overwhelmingly tell us they prefer it that way and don't want someone entering their room each day. We plan to keep it this way. As for rates, we offer 10 types of rooms, of varying sizes and price points. You selected a mid-level room. Comparatively, especially in the extremely busy month of May due to numerous college graduations, rates in this area soar to an average of 500 per night and more. By comparison, the rate you paid was half of that, and we feel we're offering some of the best rates in Boston. Thanks again for your feedback, we wish you all the best in your future travels.

Minimalist but clean and reasonably-priced place in a great location. Amenities look old, but clean. The room and bathrooms are small, but I've seen smaller in NY. Good place to sleep and get a quick bite in the morning before going on your way. Two blocks to the Convention Center T station, easy access to/from airport. Lower price that hotels in the same area. Take their communication seriously though, if you have any health issues that make it difficult to go up the stairs, this is not the place for you.

Property was great. Staff (Scott) very pleasant and helpful. Downside was that it’s surrounded by a neighborhood (more likely college kids. ) Our second night they were pretty loud, so we could clearly hear them. Also, there was some construction early in the morning. Otherwise, property is excellent. We really enjoyed our stay at the Oasis (Adams). I would definitely return.

Thank you for your feedback Virgina, we're very happy that you enjoyed your stay with us and would definitely return. Yes, there are many college students in the area (Boston has over 200,000 college students), and as graduations are now starting for many schools, students will be out and about and in a celebratory mood, and sometimes louder than perhaps they should be. Normally we don't have those issues, but graduations of so many students does bring with it an element of noise. It's the nature of Boston at this time of year. Thanks again!

Continental breakfast was really good. Fresh fruit, breads, amazing coffee, hard boiled eggs aplenty. Property was clean and orderly and stepping outside immediately places you in a real Boston neighborhood. Short walk for us to make the Sox game. I would stay here again; the free available daily breakfast made it a solid value.

This guesthouse is in the perfect location for Fenway Park and Prudential. I visited as a baseball fan and it was ideal- this was actually the second time I've stayed here. The front desk staff were all very friendly and helpful. Even though the bathroom was shared I didn't once have to wait to use it, and it was kept incredibly clean. The breakfast was also a nice touch. If you are looking for all the frills and luxury, this might not be the place for you, but if you want a convenient, clean, friendly place to use as a base while you explore the city I thoroughly recommend.

Stayed for one night for a Red Sox game. What a great spot! It was pretty easy to find and the staff was super friendly. Yes the parking is tight, but my vw Jetta fit like a glove and I had someone help me park. The parking area is just behind their building on a side street. Check in and check out was a breeze and breakfast was good too. For the location I was surprised how relatively quiet it was.
