Guest Reviews

• Otalora (10/5): -
• David (4/5): They could have made this place super cool, just seems extremely neglected, to be honest. - I liked the location, the rest felt like false advertisement. Wish I could get my money back. Bathroom doors don’t close all the way, some don’t lock at all. Mold in the shower. Towels that had dust and residue on them. Crack in the single bed pod where you could see into the other pod. Soap dispensers were disgusting and the metal was rotted on them, soap in the shower shampoo and body wash dispensers were just the same blue soap that they used for hand soap. Carpet was foul. The actual locker in the bottom of the bed is extremely difficult to access, you have to push it all of the way back and then you’ll see where the latch connects which is what they give you the padlock for. Staff was kind, but seemed burnt out and I feel for them, they deserve better. Basically all of the pictures are false advertising. I’m surprised Booking even allows the hostel to use their service with how bad the false advertising is. God speed to those employees, they deserve much, much better.
• JHON (9/5): -
• Nikola (8/5): - The kind person, chip.. /
• Samuel (9/5): -
• Ryan (8/5): The hotel was a great location & our stay was pleasant. - The location was a stone throw to TD garden & all the restos we like. I just want to commend the receptionist last may 25, when we check out, he is really accommodating & really help me since one of my friend forgot her ring, I called the receptionist & thanks to him & found the ring, we were driving going back to ny. We returned again to get the ring. I did not get his name, hope this would reach to him that we appreciate his help. Nothing I could give a bad feedback about the property.
• Érica (10/5): Superou minhas expectativas! - Minha primeira experiência em hotel cápsula e posso dizer que superou minhas expectativas, cheguei sendo muito bem recebida pelos funcionários da recepção que são muito prestativos e atenciosos. Os quartos são organizados e a capsula é confortável e privativa, os banheiros são limpos e grandes! Sem falar na localização, perto dos melhores pontos turisticos e do metrô! Eu voltarei com certeza, se eu precisar! Quero deixar meu agradecimento especial ao Matheus da recepção que me ajudou em tudo o que eu precisei, com certeza um funcionário diferenciado!
• Sonia Cervera (10/5): I was very satisfied I went with 3 kids and they loved it - The kids loved the beds the location is great Nothing everything was great

• Laura (7/5): -
• James (10/5): Nice place to stay and highly recommended - The property is good. A great place for a travelers to stay. The staffs are so nice and we really appreciate the complimentary tea and breakfast and the 7th floor is the best place in the building.
• Romina (10/5): Excelente opción. - Excelente todo . Mateo el recepcionista muy amable y dispuesto a resolver lo que necesitaba . Nada
• David (9/5): -
• Karen (5/5): - It was convenient for staying close to Big night Live venue for concert. Sheets were stained. Couldn't find towels until day after of taking shower. Woke up to construction right in front of building at 6am with no warning.
• Helene (9/5): Prima hostel met zeer goede service - Uitstekende locatie en wat je nodig hebt is er. Zeer vriendelijke en behulpzame receptionist. Het is eenvoudig maar dat is logisch in een hostel. Voor meer luxe betaal je ook veel meer.
• Tobias (6/5): - Super zentrale Lage Kissen unbequem und dünn, Decken ebenso viel zu dünn und kalt
• Colleen (10/5): -
• Eleni (8/5): Perfect for Boston Marathon weekend. Location, fellow marathon guests and having a wonderful lounge to relax in - It was in a fantastic position, walking distance to the Esplanade and Boston Commons and Gardens as well as to the T. Very easy access to the airport too. There wasn’t a lot of hot water when showering but there were many guests so it was understandable.
• Johnatan (10/5): - La atención del personal fue genial, la ubicación del hostal es excelente.
• Guest (8/5): -
• R (6/5): - me quedaba cerca del sitio de la carrera 5k boston en la noche del viernes me pareció un sector muy pesado, y el olor del producto de limpieza muy fuerte , cuando no tomabas ascensor las escaleras muy sucias, el estilo de seguridad para las cosas en la cama muy pésimo, no habia agua en recepcion ni baño.
• Nikhila (10/5): -
• Sara (8/5): -
• George (9/5): - I was running the Marathon and they offer me a shower after checkout
• Paul (10/5): I recommend Meco to anyone seeking a great affordable place to stay in Boston - I came to run the Boston Marathon. Meco is very close to North Station T, making it easy to go places and get back. The staff were friendly. I had great roommates. The eating area was open 24/7. N/A
• Rebecca (7/5): -
• TAKAKO (8/5): - 今日は室内の温度を上げてくれたようで過ごしやすかった 相変わらず１つのバスルームの電気が切れていて使えなかった
• TAKAKO (8/5): - スタッフが親切で思ったより快適でした。共有スペース良かったです。朝には飲み物や小さいドーナツなどが無料でいただけます シャワーの水圧と温度がいまひとつです。お部屋も寒いのでブランケット追加でかりました。
• Feichtlbauer (8/5): -
• Kevin (10/5): Une grande capsule confortable, propre et sécurisée, idéale pour les voyageurs ! - Propreté, facile d'accès et sécurisé, avec un espace de rangement des valises/sacs Rien, tout était conforme aux attentes
• Rory (8/5): - Great price and location. My roommates were all quiet, and I slept well. The beds are comfortable and large.
• Hafelin (7/5): - I liked that it was exactly what was depicted through the app. The staff were very nice and the facilities useful and mostly clean. The bathroom were not super clean and neither were the towels, but overall it was a great place to stay.
• MICHAEL (10/5): Best deal to watch a Celtics game - Close to TD Garden My locker was way under the bed, hard to reach
• Tatiana (9/5): Volvería a alojarme ahí definitivamente - Hermosa experiencia. Muy cómodo el lugar y super limpio. Todo divino en líneas generales!
• Bethel (8/5): -
• Szu-an (8/5): - The location is great. The single bed pod is spacious enough, with easy-to-use lighting and air-con (fan only, not temperature). The shower and restroom are also clean and comfortable. Though you can control the fan speed, the temperature is fixed. It was a bit cold, so I had to wear more clothes on while sleeping. As it's a shared room, the room occasionally had a strong scent. Better ventilation would make the experience even more comfortable.
• van Wyk (6/5): -
• Adehmar (9/5): - The atmosphere was surprisingly comfortable. The place was very clean. I felt the cold air draft from the window next to my bed. I found the locker under my bed a bit difficult to secure.
• Elisabeth (8/5): -
• Saimanasa (10/5): -
• John (7/5): - Location was excellent, perfect if you are attending a concert at TD Garden & close enough to the T to get anywhere you need, but perfectly walkable. The bathroom was clean, the rooms were quiet, check in was easy. The main selling point, though, is the price for the location you get. The beds are extremely stiff. If you must have a soft bed to rest well, this may not be the place for you. Booking was easy, however, somewhat confusing in how you get the type of bed you prefer.

• Prato (8/5): Hoping this place remain nice as it is! - It’s comfortable and super clean. Beds are properly separated so you can have your privacy during sleep. Bathroom cleaned!! The guy at the check-in was super helpful, friendly and he helped me changing my bed and room randomly during the night, because I needed it. I was glad he could help me and so fast. Really! I had the necessity to change room because I didn’t feel safe because of a woman I didn’t trust. But wasn’t property’s fault.
• Kinoshita (10/5): - 値段の割にかなり快適でした。 12ポッドある部屋で、2人しかいなかったのも良かったです。 共用部も快適で、水やコーヒー、朝ごはんのクッキー、レンジや冷蔵庫など、必要なものは揃っていた印象です。 特にないですが、12ポッドで周りに人が結構いたら、寝るのも含め大変だったろうなと。 そういう意味で、繁閑の当たり外れはあると思います。
• Martin Vincent (8/5): -
• Louise (8/5): - L'emplacement est incroyable, juste à côté du TD Garden, donc super si vous avez un évènement là-bas et de North Station donc pratique pour les transports en commun. Permet de faire pas mal de choses à pied. Personnel très sympathique et aidant. Le ménage aurait pu être une peu plus soigné mais ça reste très largement correct.
• Madeleine (10/5): -
• Yudai (9/5): -
• Delfina (7/5): Personal amable y buena ubicación -
• Johanson (10/5): -
• Marta (10/5): - The staff was really helpful and the rooms were modern and nice
• Carolina (6/5): Just fine. - This property is clean… up to date. The location is great. They have all female rooms which is a plus for solo travelers. They allow us to leave our luggage while we wait for the room etc. they offer tea and coffee in the morning. I paid $155 for the night and got a bed that did not meet my needs. I asked for a change and the front desk gave me two options that did not meet my expectations taking in to consideration what I paid. There was defective bed available and I took it because I had no good options. I honestly did not feel they cared. I am not sure if it’s Boston culture but front desk person in the morning did not seem open and friendly. We are tourists and not from Boston so a bit more warmth would feel like they want us there paying for their services. It is also a hostel with curtains so expect noise etc.

• YOU YOEN (9/5): 가성비 좋은 숙소 - 우선 조용해요 하나하나 블라인드를 내릴 수 있는 캡슐형태예요 문이 급하게 닫히지 않아서 소리가 거의 안납니다 화장실에 수건도 넉넉하게 주고 시설이 비교적 새로워서 깨끗하게 느껴져요 아침에 커피와 과자같은 것을 주는데 저는 먹지 않아서 모르겠어요 싱글베드였는데 당연히 엄청 작고 좁아요 전 어떤지 궁금해서 HI Hostel 도 체크인했는데 정말 도로 돌아가고 싶을 정도였기 때문에 아쉽다고 할 수 있는것을 꼽자면 조금이라도 빠른 체크인을 안해줬어요
• Chenai (8/5): -
• Marcus (8/5): Great, awesome time - The area was nice
• Roderick (7/5): It was a brief one night stay. Accommodations great. Staff... poor! - I liked the privacy of the beds, the comfort and cleanliness. The beds were spacious and accommodating. I would be willing to stay there another time if needed. What I did not like was after paying for the Meco through your services, they attempted to charge me an ADDITIONAL $150 for insurance. There was nothing on the website about because, as nice as the room and bed were; no hostel is worth $250! PLEASE!

• Pasha (1/5): - Non I never recommend this hotel because they changed the extra $25 and staff are not good
• Ophélie (8/5): Really good stay - Really well located
• Nancy (9/5): -
• Jonhatan (10/5): -
• Joel (10/5): In general, it was very practical and nice and how I expected. - I had every detail that I needed in my bed. Clean of the bathroom. Under the bed, on the cabinet, there is a need to be cleaner, too much dust, and the bed is very hard. Add some memory foam.
• Stephanie (8/5): Wenn man alleine reist ist es für 3-4 Tage perfekt - Liegt sehr zentral Könnte etwas sauberer sein aber ist ein Hostel daher dafür kein Problem da einfach sehr viele Leute ein und ausgehen. Das Schloss wo man seine Sachen aufbewahren kann ist sehr umständlich finde ich da gibt es einfachere Optionen. Man könnte nich 1-2 mehr Ablagen anbringen damit man mehr Sachen abstellen kann
