No elevator!
The area of the place is not good very dirty and overcrowded. Not safe if traveling solo. The worst part there is no elevator it was so exhausting carrying our luggage to up to the 6 floor! Finding parking was also such an issue! The room very small! I would not recommend it save yourself stress and get a place with an elevator and cleaner area.

Excellent location and value for $
Great value for money and excellent location. Even without active service staff, I had no trouble accessing my room or other amenities. One minor quibble: since the room did not have a table and chair to sit at, it would be nice to have a lounge in each floor.

All hotel stays should be like this
Absolutely easy and breezy. I love that I didn’t have to talk to one person. My access code immediately worked when it was time to check in and all I ever had to do was tap my phone on the key pad for the building and my room. The room was the perfect size, the shower was great with good water pressure, and I loved the amount of mirrors. I was actually surprised how comfortable the bed was. I slept so well!

Convenient and sterile
It’s great to have a hotel on Capitol Hill, but the room is stunningly sterile for an area with so much personality.

Convenient
The self-service cabinets for tea/coffee and towels took a bit of getting used to, but it was a clean and comfortable room with everything I needed. About a ten minute walk to transport.

Comfortable stay
Lovely stay at the The Boylston Sonder. The only downside was the fact that there was no lift so had to rely on relation to carry cases up 5 flights of stairs. Bed was very comfortable, had coffee machine and refrigerator and if course an air con unit.

They don’t have a front desk. I had trouble entering the building and I had to contact someone from overseas to help me. They couldn’t get me into my room and said they would give me a new code but they didn’t. I have been getting in and out of the building thankfully due to other people letting me in. I would not stay at this property again unless they decided to change things.

Comfy room, no elevator
The room was very nice, clean and comfortable. However, we had just arrived after a week long cruise with a lot of heavy luggage. There is no elevator available to get luggage to the top floor (which we were on). A sign indicated that a service lift was available. I texted the number on the sign and the person who responded didn't seem to know what I was talking about at first. Finally, after about 15-20 minutes of waiting downstairs, someone came and brought our bags up. When we were departing, we had to carry our heavy luggage down 3 flights of steps.
