Boston Hostellit

Plussat: Proximity to tourist destinations..

Miinukset: Too expensive for a dorm-type..

Plussat: I liked how the layout of the room provided some privacy. There were also lots of planned fun activities.

Miinukset: Was a bit pricey, but everything else was good.

Plussat: the location, it was close to downtown and could walk everywhere

Miinukset: it was too expensive to stay there

Plussat: The breakfast is pretty good.

Miinukset: I woke up my first night with red spots on my face. Not sure what it was but the spots stayed there for a long time. They just started to disappear now that I am back home. The sheets had to be changed. It only happened the first night not any other night.

Plussat: Great Location, good facilities. Very clean. Lots of activities going on so you could always socialise with others. Staff were very helpful. Breakfast was basic but much appreciated. Would definitely stay again.

Miinukset: Showers could have been warmer and more powerful but were adequate.

Plussat: Aamiainen oli kyllä kokemus.

Miinukset: Suihkujen veden lämpötilan säätö.

Plussat: Hyvä sijainti keskustassa. Aamiainen riittävä. Vastaanottoauki 24/7. Sänky ok.

Miinukset: Osa henkilökunnasta oli omahyväisiä, mutta suurin osa onneksi ihan asiallisia. Huoneiden väliset seinät ohuet, joten en suosittele herkkäunisille.

Plussat: Sijainti, ystävällinen henkilökunta, kaikki oli sujuvaa vaikka hostelli on iso, asiakkaatkin olivat huomaavaisia ja kohteliaita, järjestettyä ohjelmaa esim opastettuja kävelykierroksia kaupungilla

Plussat: Uusien tuttavuuksien tapaamisesta! Täydellinen valinta yksin liikkuvalle. Aina törmää uusiin ihmisiin ja tutustuu muihin huippuihmisiin.

Miinukset: Aamupala oli melko vaatimaton, mutta kyllä silläkin sai itsensä täyteen.

Plussat: Tapaat toisia matkailijoita. Suomalaisia tosin vähemmän. Hienot kiertokävelyt asian tuntevien oppaiden (kuin ystävä) kanssa. Savuton ja alkoholiton paikka.

Miinukset: Kahvin juojana ei maku ollut niin "suomalainen". Tottumattomana amerikkalaisiin kylpyhuoneiden tekniikoihin suihkun käyttö hiukan haasteellista.

Plussat: Everthing you ask for from hostel is there. Staff is friendly and everything is clean and modern. This was the best hostel I’ve stayed in the US and the UK. The location is pretty good and close to a subway station.

Miinukset: Nothing at all

Plussat: Huone oli järkevästi tehty, sängyt oli peräkkäin ja jokaisella oli oma rauha

Miinukset: Ovet oli kovaäänisiä, yöllä ääni kuului käytävältä

Plussat: Location great in South Boston. Walk it! hotel un-staffed, so coded door entry system. good shared bathroom and kitchen facilities. ( Two rooms share the bathroom ). Nice bar opposite (Stats).If you don't like walking, use Uber or Lyft. 10 mins by car to Logan airport.

Miinukset: Common areas, stairs, passageways, need updating/ new carpets.

Plussat: It was clean, had the basic necessities, easy to access, good kitchen and laundry facilities, safe, convenient location close to buses and downtown, affordable price.

Miinukset: It was across the street from a bar and at night the bar patrons were quite noisy until 2:00 am, making it difficult for me to sleep well. Also, there is no parking close by, so people with vehicles need to know that they will have to park far away and walk for about 20 min. to reach a parking garage from the hotel. There is no dining area, so patrons need to eat in their rooms.

Plussat: It was not dirty.

Miinukset: You can hear all kind of noises from the street all night. If you have to stay here, buy some ear plugins first.

Plussat: Did exactly what I needed from it: an easy bed, and pre given codes meant no trouble getting in to my room late at night.

Miinukset: The heating was blasting in my room with no way to turn it off. So to fall asleep I had to also blast the air conditioning, which was fine, but I can’t imagine anything worse for the environment than two systems together when none would have done.

Plussat: It was definitely cheap, that's for sure. We liked that it has a full kitchen every other floor and also many bathrooms. Since it's a hostel, you do share those with others but that was never a problem for us. Even though there were other people staying in the building, I was never in the kitchen with any one or found myself waiting for a bathroom. Also the bathrooms were decently clean and always well stocked. We also liked that since there is a full kitchen there's are dishes and silverware to use (which of course you should place in the dishwasher when done) which came in handy when we bought a bottle of wine but forgot about the bottle opener and glasses.

Miinukset: Even though it appeared generally clean and well kept, the fact that there were two cockroach traps in our bedroom and then I saw another in the kitchen, kind of really skeeved me out. Luckily never saw any roaches in them though. Also, we thought we would be getting a queen bed but it was definitely just a full and also not as fluffy and comfy as the other hostel from this same company that we had previously stayed at. The worst thing about the place was the location though. The closest T station is a little under 20 minute walk, which was very awful when carrying luggage when it's snowing/sleeting out. Not fun at all. You can easily grab a taxi but the extra $6 each way adds up. There is also a bar right across the street, so with the loud drunken men chatting it up outside all night combined with the constant trucks and other loud vehicles, we found our room was never silent and it was very hard to fall asleep or to sleep in. Wouldnt stay here unless you're really desperate to save a couple bucks. There's another hostel owned by the same company located at 30 West Broadway across from the T station that is the 20 minute walk away from this one. We stayed there last year and loved it, the $30 or so less a night for this one wasn't worth it.

Plussat: The ease of checking in. Just 2 codes to enter the front door and then my room. The Shared bathroom had a good shower.

Miinukset: The area was quite noisy.

Plussat: Checking-in with the provided code was really convenient. Shared bathrooms were no problem at all and pretty clean. The room size was adequate and the kitchen was well equipped. I liked that the house is easy to reach by bus.

Miinukset: The WIFI did not work at all during my two-night stay and because there is a window-mounted AC during summer (until October), the windows cannot be fully shut. The plastic that is next to the AC due to that does sadly not cancel the noise from the bar across the street at all.

Plussat: The location is perfect for access to south Boston.
