We had an incredible stay at this hotel. The staff was friendly and helpful, making us feel right at home. Our room was stylish and modern, with a luxurious king-size bed and a stunning bathroom. The hotel's location couldn't have been better, right in the heart of downtown and close to everything. It was just a short walk to Essex Street, the historic core, and popular attractions like the Peabody Essex Museum and the Witch Museum. We even found it convenient being close to the train station.
