The Royal Sonesta Boston
Insanely small, old rooms. Shower was not cleaned properly, there was still residue on the glass from the previous guest. Very outdated and overpriced.

Harborside Inn Of Boston
Room was clean with a comfortable bed. Basic accomodations in a convenient location right at the Aquarium the subway stop. Easy walk to central Boston/Boston Common and the North End/Harbor areas.

The Revolution Hotel
Location, lobby and staff were all wonderful but the rooms left a bit to be desired. Very small space which, we do understand in metro areas. The shower however, was wild. I get the industrial vibe but it was giving straight gym/dorm shower. Coffee in lobby was a nice convenience.
