Lovely weeks stay at the Hancock. Great facilities in the apartment and excellent location. The only suggestion I'd make is to add a floor length mirror and have some English tea bags available.

Liked: Cleanliness, amenities
The tables look dirty due to spots that don’t come off. Also there were bread crumbs on the second to the top plate and some of the silverware needed to be washed before using. There were no sponges or washcloths to clean dishes. There were soap no washcloths for the bathroom. We loved the location- really close to Subway and the parks.

Great location, apartment not well described
Location great. Apartment ok, but description and pictures didn't match reality. We were not aware that our unit (#3) had a cellar-like feeling, without much daylight coming in. Moreover, the possibility to store luggage after check-out on the day of departure was not there and would have been very helpful for us.

William

Location was lovely. The toilet “whined” regularly. It seemed whenever any water was used in the building we knew. The steep, narrow curving stairs made luggage carrying a challenge. Two hand towels and two wash clothes for 7 days was skimpy. We would have preferred regular TV options. Again, the location was excellent.

There was no salt, only one soap. It was difficult to get help. In general, a great place, close to different tourist spots, close to the T. Very pretty apartment and furniture

The location is unbeatable, easy walking to some of Boston's best tourist sites and T stops. We loved the keyless entry and easy text communications about check-in/check out details. Our apt had just the right amount of supplies for what we wanted to do. There is zero parking, but we knew that going in and chose not to rent a car while we were in town, which worked out fine.

Boston Vacation
Our room (#1) was amazing. It was very clean, comfortable and had everything we wanted. Great location, most of the main attractions were 10-15 minute walk. Before we arrived I had all of the information that I needed to gain access to the building and room. We were in room #1 which is located on the main floor, we were able to get to our room by entering under the main stairs. My only issue were the pillows, the bed was very comfortable but the pillows were thin wafers. We had to use the decorative pillows for comfort. I highly recommend booking a room with them. Next time we are in Boston we will defiantly book this place again.

Stephanie

Disliked: Amenities, property conditions & facilities
There was no soap in either the kitchen, the bathroom sink or the shower. We washed our hands using shampoo. The condition of the unit was far, FAR below what one assumed from the photos - multiple layers of paint, chipped paint, and none of the amenities listed on various postings in the unit - earplugs, white noise machine? Nowhere to be found. I’ll assume the high price we paid for one night was strictly because of the location. Overall, it was not worth near what we paid. I don’t recommend it.

Beautiful little spot to stay in the heart of old Boston. It is a basement/ground level studio so everyone could see in but it isn't too busy of a street, and there are big shutters inside that close when you want more privacy. When we arrived we couldn’t figure out how to use the lock which led to some confusion and frustration at first, but you just have to place your entire palm over the lock screen. Not very intuitive in my opinion but we figured it out. Overall a great stay especially for the price.
