Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities
Loved the location! I got off the train & it was a 10 min walk to the hostel. It’s located in Chinatown so there were PLENTY of Asian restaurants to try (there were also other type of food to try at different restaurants). Very walkable. The TD Garden stadium was a 25-30 min walk away. I enjoyed trivia night that they offered as well. As for the property & staff itself: def poor!! I went to the counter a few times to check-in/ ask a question & there was no greeting. The workers just continued talking to each other or typing on the computer until I said excuse me smh. It was hot af in the building/ rooms. The mysterious AC was “broken” but it’s funny how the panels in 4 different rooms I was able to poke my head in were unattached. Sleeping in an 80 deg F room is unacceptable!! Someone threw up on a couch, I saw the mess around 12a, went down for breakfast @ 8a & it was still there just covered w/paper towels & a fall risk sign smh. The place may cater to college kids & international students but they still deserve better than that!

Liked: Staff & service
The price was more affordable than a hotel and it was close to lots of public transportation options. The staff was friendly and helpful. The dorm style rooms had lots of bathrooms close by. You do have to bring or buy a lock for your locker space and the bathrooms are about as clean as a dorm bathroom. It can get stuffy if you are there in summer. Overall, it was about what I would expect for a hostel.

When I arrived late at my room there was a person sleeping in my bed; had to go down again to the main desk to ask. Once in the main desk the person there thought I was mistaken and I wasn´t staying where I was saying, I had to have him look for my signed check in document from all the bunch of that day because for some reason the system didn´t show I was staying at the hostel at all. Once they finally found the signed document for the bed I told them was mine they had to check for another bed to give me, hand me my stuff they took from my previous bed and send me to another room; all this process to about an hour. Since it got resolved I didn´t make much of it and went to bed. Bad thing is with all of that happening at 2-3 in the morning and them taking my stuff from my locker I lost a pair of glasses of mine; I have two pairs, I´m always wearing one and I didn´t notice I didn´t have then till I had left the city. I loved those glasses and they are expensive, the hostal lost them because of a mistake from them and I´m really pissed about it.

I knew beforehand that this was a ‘hostel’ rather than a traditional hotel, but I was pleasantly surprised at the cleanliness of the rooms, the cost of the stay, and the fantastic central location in downtown Boston.
