Wonderful old hotel with some limitations
Perfect location, lovely personnel. Marred by poor charging availability; connections were loose, too few USB-C ports. Lighting in room is too dim; fine for sleeping or TV, but dim for anything else. Poor TV selection; I can't believe a hotel of this caliber doesn't automatically offer Netflix, HBO etc without having to chromecast from one's own subscription. No refrigerator/mini-bar in room - what???

Hotel a Hard pass on future trips to Boston
Arrived at substandard room with a welcome card for a complete stranger. Bath is smallest I’ve seen in my decades of travel with to 18” doors that don’t lock or seal. Very outdated and bath ceiling was bubbling/peeling. Paying double for the lobby which can be seen for free! “City view” room is wall of Westin service. Copley park is under construction. Dogs barking all night. Loud Construction outside on building sounded like maybe also I adjacent room! Urban experience fee” is a scam! Internet if you force it as fee is not an ammenity nor do we use unsecured hotel WiFi! $25 credit for restaurant is per visit despite how many days of fees you pay! They did not want to seat us without reservation but after venting said they would look for an inconsistent spot. We just had experienced an exquisite meal down the street at Abe and Louise and we stopped In Hotel restaurant for coffee and dessert. They said they should not have seated us and refused to serve coffee. Did bring dessert but immediately walked away in huff. They did the same to the family of four sitting next to us who had planned a full meal and ended up leaving (good for them!) Ruined what had been a magical day. I’m usually overly sympathetic to service industry but this experience left me fuming! We stopped at front desk and explained what happened so they were aware, they said they would tell manager but we heard nada. Location is great but several other better options nearby. Loved Boston but hard pass on Copley
No bath fan and failing ceiling under toilet above!
Wheelchair inexplicably left outside our room for 24 hours.
We don’t need that quite yet! Weird. No other rooms  lose by…
Looked like they tried fixing and failing again. Assume active leak or the lack of fan or hvac w interior fan.

Start your Boston Experience
I was disappointed in the wait to check-in, 4:00 pm was rather late. But the decor was festive and your staff very friendly. We were attending a gala in the hotel that evening. Rooms were spacious and very clean. Centrally located- great starting point for a Boston experience. Have stayed here before and will do so again I am sure.

The urban experience fee of USD 35 per day for wi fi and telephone and a bottle of water is outrageous. Include it the tariff and be done with it.
