The Godfrey Hotel Boston
The lobby is gorgeous but, for the price, the state of the rooms is very basic. It's perfectly clean, and if not for the price it would be fine, but it's touted as a luxury hotel and the the room was not luxury.

The Revolution Hotel
Nice location, quiet street next to many good back bay restaurants/bars. Stylish hotel. The room was on the smaller side with no refrigerator or microwave.

The Langham, Boston
There were bags of garbage outside our window. Disappointed there was no high tea served while touting high tea in a book for sale at the front desk. No mini bar in the room. Requires room service.

Four Points by Sheraton Boston Newton
Normal Hotel Breakfast Buffet (crappy), but is $20. You can just walk up and make yourself whatever, but then you’re hit with a $20 charge even though there isn’t a sign saying so.
