The Revolution Hotel
I love this hotel. The rooms are immaculately clean, the staff is great, and the communal bathrooms are always spotless. If you are OK with not having a bathroom in your room, this is an ideal spot -- great neighborhood, awesome restaurant and bar on site, and a really fun/cool vibe. I've stayed ...

The Dagny Boston
Everything was great! The only thing is that this site said room was over 300 sq ft and it was not. Then again- who stays in their room???
