    We found some dirty plates in the dishwasher left by previous guest. The pool was kinda meh to be honest, a jacuzzi would've been nice ...

    We found plenty of parking spots outside the hotel where you have the meters. The meters run 8 AM to 8 PM so I recommend that if you don't plan on spending too much time inside the hotel. The room offered a lot more than we expected. The Suite with King Bed had an expandable couch that could turn into a comfy bed, toaster, utensils, plates, pans, an electric stove, iron, even dish washer etc ... The price was quite affordable.

    Nothing. It was fabulous.

    Breakfast was extensive and delicious! Rooms were clean and comfortable. I'm not used to my hotel rooms having a stovetop and full fridge, very cool. Not that far a walk from the main Seaport drag.

    Noise insulation in the hotel is not perfect (walls seem okay, but the doors let through sound), but it's always a challenge in an affordable hotel that might not have the most experienced hotel guests. Having a sign by the elevators asking people to be quite in the corridors during sleeping hours... maybe even dimming the lights a little at night in the corridors, might help. It's fundamentally a guest management issue.

    Great experience. Busy hotel, still with that new car smell. It has hard-working staff, excellent facilities for the price and was great value.

    There are times the breakfast area at the reception can be very messy and uncleaned. Overall it did’nt affect our overall experience.

    We love the overall set up of the rooms. We love that it has a mini kitchen and its very homey. We are looking forward to visiting Element again in our future Boston trips

    The property backs on a DHS facility. And parking was outside behind the hotel. They should have EV chargers available there.

    Creative eco friendly atmosphere everywhere. They were even growing lettuce & other greens with compostable bags for guests to collect them in. Breakfasts were delicious & varied, indoor pool was great, staff was warm and helpful! The bed was a real joy to sleep in!

    "2022/2023 Breakfast cooked by chef to your specification. 2023/24 Precooked placed under heated lamps after apparent health inspection found no sink for chef to wash hands. Unable to install sink due to cost. Portable hand wash system available at low cost brought in during COVID could have used one of those. Lame excuse for not cooking breakfast in front of customer.

    Nice apartment large fridge freezer, microwave, coffee machine, dishwasher. Room was adequate for what we needed. Kept clean daily by cleaner. Pool open this year and a good sized gym.

    We didn't love the location - a little further away from the city than we expected. We disliked being charged $54 to park for less than 24 hours. The breakfast was just okay. There were some egg sandwiches that looked really good but... they had corn beef hash on them. Yuck!

    The room was clean and well equipped. It was interesting having essentially a full kitchen in the room - we didn't really need it but it was nice to have. The staff was lovely and we really enjoying staying there.

    The bed was a little hard, and the feather pillows a little flat. Woke on the second morning with a sore back.

    Great location, perfect room set up with the kitchen. Fabulous rain head shower. Front desk staff was super friendly and efficient. Housekeeping staff were all smiles ! And yes, they have daily housekeeping service!!! Also awesome valet parking service, well worth the price! Also loved the extensive breakfast buffet and the cool coffee machine.

    The housekeeping cleaned my room but when I looked under the sheets the crumbs from my ‘breakfast in bed’ were still there. Also, the housekeeping doesn’t tidy your room, e.g. folding away the blanket on the couch or putting back the iron stand.

    Central location, big room, 24 hour free coffee, 24 hour reception desk, great breakfast options

    The staff was very friendly and accommodating. Breakfast was fresh and on the healthier side (Not processed, carb loaded) and the coffee was good. The rooms and hotel overall were very clean. We enjoyed the lemon water in the lobby. It sounded small but it was enjoyable.

    There weren't very many amenities in the room, i.e. bath robe, shower cap. Also the location is a bit out of the city; pretty much had to take a Lyft to get anywhere.

    The facility was clean, the staff was exceptional and it had great amenities! Espresso coffee machine was amazing and a decent continental breakfast. The bed was comfortable. And the room size was prefect. There is a full kitchen in each room! Free bikes to use, which was great fun! Hotel with a pool was great, loved that amenity. Great stay!
