    Shower was a bit low pressure and didn't have a wand. Tough to rince off.

    Nice layout with everything you need for a good stay. Nespresso machine with frother and hard boiled eggs were nice touched

    Lighting in room could be better Didn't tell me the blind in bedroom was broken Need more hooks in bathroom to hang clothes/towels Noisy fan with air-conditioning system so I turned it off. Only has 2 settings - auto or on. Front door keypad not well lit - had to use my phone torch light and get my glasses out at 11pm to key in the 9 digit code.

    Spacious room Very helpful staff - offered me use of a good umbrella to go out in the rain.

    No full buffet breakfast. But you can buy groceries at the local supermarkets and cook in the small (fully equipped) kitchen in your room.

    I came to Boston for a conference at the Sheraton-Marriott. Opted for the Inn at St Botolph as it was afordable and very close. The staff and the hotel are wonderful. Breaksast is served in a small common room and includes muffins, fruits, yogurt, and hot drinks - lovingly and generously served. I would love to come back to Boston and to this hotel, which feels like a hybrid between a boutique hotel and a family home.

    The carpets could use some cleaning, but I was able to ignore it mostly.

    I love the quaint brownstone neighborhood that this inn is in. The rooms were updated and comfortable. It had a small kitchen area. I liked that I didn't feel like I was staying in a stuffy business suite.

    There are two keypads by the front door, and it took me many tries to get them right the first time. I also had trouble with the thermostat settings. Maybe posting an explanation in the room would take care of it.

    The suite was large and had an excellent kitchen. The bathroom had lots of hot water. The location couldn't have been more perfect for me. I liked the breakfast in the morning. Thomas, the manager, was helpful and very pleasant. My bed was comfortable with lovely linens.

    Not sure whether the absence of human contact would be agreeable for a single woman. Would she have a source of safety if needed?
