Harborside Inn Of Boston, Boston

Shower from pictures was different. I was lead to believe that we would have a walk in shower. Also-vent did not work.

My girlfriend and I decided to go down to see Boston for the first time and decided that from the pictures the Harbourside Inn was the perfect spot to stay - and it would have been. It is next to the harbor, bars, and is right in front of an entrance to the subway station. Unfortunately the Hotel was under some construction. 1 Elevator out of 2 worked however that was nothing compared to the mortaring and power drilling happening in the hall outside our room (#409) at 7:50 in the morning (Monday). The work continued on Tuesday and If I could upload a video I would but it won't let me on this website. We called the front desk to ask what was going on and they said it was the building next door. tried to sleep through the noise but I'd like for you to try and sleep through a power drill. turns out that they were installign a beam and drilling into the brick. the work was done around 10 and then the vacuuming commenced. The hotel did not offer to move us even though they knew that this work was taking place in the hallway outside out room. Really do your research and inquiries before booking this as your stay of choice because the potential was there however from a service standpoint - the ball was dropped. The picture below is an image of the construction taking place right outside our room.

Staff let us check in early very helpful with questions about the area. Fantastic neighborhood lots of pubs and history. Room was super expensive 680.00 US for 2 nights and little outdated. Bed was quite uncomfortable.

We stayed in the king basement room, it was larger than the rooms with windows. The bed was firm, I prefer a softer bed. But that wouldn’t stop us from re-booking in the future. The only thing that I did not like, was not having a window in the morning… You have no idea when it’s morning. It was clean and quiet and very reasonably priced for the area, we were able to walk to many places without taking a cab/uber. Staff was helpful and nice. If we come back to Boston we will be checking in here again.

The hotel is in a good location for walking in Boston to see all the sights. The room was quiet. One suggestion is for darkening drapes on window.
