I just wanted to post how my stay went, as there seems to be a lot of inconsistency of quality. I had a great check in with a very nice staff member, I was staying on cash and points and got upgraded to one of the highest floor rooms over looking the Charles river. It really was an amazing view to wake up to. Overall the room may have been a tad dated yes, but everything was clean and functional and the bed was quite comfortable. The bathroom was quite small as other's have mentioned. But as I was staying alone, it wasn't an issue...the door is challenging to close when you are inside the bathroom because of the space tightness. The location was fantastic, as the T is a minute walk away at Prudential station. The lack of breakfast on "weekends," which includes Mondays, is kind of a let down, but food isn't too far. I would stay here again, as options in Boston are quite pricey. With the platinum upgrade, it's a pretty good deal.
