Guest Reviews

• Fiona (8/5): -
• Frédérique (9/5): Bon séjour dans cette auberge bien placée. Je m’y suis sentie en sécurité - Le calme, la propreté, l’emplacement
• Xander (10/5): -
• Renato (10/5): Conforto e comodidade - É um hostel completo e de alto padrão. A cozinha bem equipada e você nem precisa lavar a louça porque tem uma equipe (achei um grande diferencial). Eu esqueci uma garrafa térmica de água dentro do banheiro logo que cheguei e, infelizmente, não foi encontrada. Também, deixei o cabo do carregador e foi furtado na minha cama (nada disso tem haver com o hostel e sim com os hóspedes) mas foi um ponto negativo. O cabo, eu até sei qual foi o hóspede, mas não quis causar uma discussão.
• Lucie (8/5): -
• Romain (8/5): -
• Anna (2/5): - The location is great and the staff was helpful after I became aware of the problem and refunded my stay. The lobby is comfortable. My room was not cleaned properly and the AC was being renovated during my stay on an extremely hot day, which I only found out after checking in. I found the room impossible to stay in due to the heat and had to spontaneously find something else.
• Maxwell (5/5): Decent experience with great room to improve. - Like the friendliness of the staff; in general the env is clean AC is out of order during my two night stay. It’s unbearable when the ambient temperature is over 80. Fortunately, the staff lended me a floor fan. That helped a lot.
• Martin (9/5): Great International Vibe In the Heart of Boston. - Location and proximity to public transportation. Chinatown food and people are wonderful. Nice safe vibe inside the community kitchen with street view. Great Bakery and Cafe within walking distance. No loud music blasting across generational lines. Bathrooms and showers could have been a little more attended to with soap and shower mats. Bagels / Toast and Jelly would have been a nice touch for breakfast for those not yet situated to the area. The area at night could be a challenge if traveling alone.
• Marco (7/5): Close to everything in downtown Boston - Great location - everything is within walking distance or a couple of T stops. Quaint building. The private suite I booked covered all my basic needs but still felt a bit like a hostel room: eg no desk, small sink in the bathroom, cement flooring, …
• Mikołaj (9/5): -
• Alexandra (8/5): Good place for a budget holiday - The hostel was very clean, with an industrial look to it. Unfortunately the thermostats had been recently replaced and the one in our room wasn't working, which meant that it was chilly during the night. Overall the room was nice, clean, good size. Bed was comfortable and the bathroom was a very good size. The hostel was offering some activities as well, but sadly we could not take part as we had our own itinerary, but I think it's a great thing for those travelling alone or in pairs to meet new people and experience the city at the same time.
• Um (10/5): - 침대가 푹신해서 좋았어요. 락커가 많이 끽끽거려서 같은 방을 쓰는 사람들을 깨울까봐 좀 걱정이 되었어요.
• Jordi (8/5): -
• Shukri (10/5): -
• Gustavo (8/5): - Colchão
• Gustavo (9/5): - Colchão!
• EMELINE (8/5): Reposant - L’emplacement et les visites touristiques Le partage des sanitaires
• glicia (8/5): -
• Karlo (10/5): -
• Azzoug (8/5): - L'emplacement, le service, la cuisine full équipée et la propreté des lieux communs
• Joe (8/5): - The price the location greet !
• Andrew Spears (10/5): Will stay there again. - Clean Some outlets didn't work.
• YUHSUAN (8/5): The location is very convenient. - The location is very convenient, there are many places in the common areas where you can relax, and the front desk staff are also very nice. I couldn’t find a hair dryer, and the guest in the lower bunk was yelling loudly at 1 a.m., which was very noisy.
• Daming (10/5): -
• Suraj (10/5): -
• Mikko (10/5): -
• Taizo (7/5): -
• Jeroen (7/5): - Great location and friendly staff. You could store your luggage after checkout too. Rooms were clean and beds comfortable. Walls are paper thin and you hear other rooms through the ventilation.
• Ana Luisa (10/5): - C’est génial avoir des rideaux pour les lits et un toilette particulier pour chaque chambre, vraiment plus privé Le check out c’est vraiment tôt
• Michael (8/5): Definitely worth it; will do it again! - Pleasantly surprised by the experience, degree of privacy and comfort. Shower/toilet facilities are very private rooms (not congregate) - this is unclear and should be made so, as it will positively attract more clientele who may have misgivings about “locker room” style facilities. Cleanliness of shower/toilet rooms varied and wasn’t always up to minimum standards.
• Cabariti (7/5): -
• Samiksha (9/5): Worth it. - It’s at peak location yet very affordable. Every tourist spot was at walking distance from the hotel. Didn’t expect it to be this clean! Staff was polite. They had arranged movie nights trivia games etc. Plus they also had lockers arranged to keep luggage after you have checked out, that too for free. I was impressed.Def recommend it Wish they had also provided locks for the lockers in the room
• Enrique (9/5): - Como nosxatendio Victor Muy cordial No funcionaba el secador
• Ruth (8/5): It is a good place to stay - The localization is good! Also very easy to get it from the airport. I little bit messy the bathroom
• Josep (9/5): -
• James (7/5): -
• gautham (9/5): -
• Orozco (9/5): Muy buena experiencia - El personal fue extremadamente amable. Las instalaciones están significativamente bien. La facilidad del check in, entrar o salir es muy alta. Fue una muy buena experiencia. Tal vez sería ideal que las duchas y baños estuviesen separados eso ralentiza mucho en horas poco, pero todo es de ir con calma.
• Patricio (10/5): Asombroso - Todo Nada
• Jonathan (10/5): Pleasant stay and roommates were curtious overall great experience will definitely be rebooking when I’m in Boston again - It was near all the places I need to visit. N/a
• Catherine (10/5): -
• Fernando (10/5): -
• Sang Keun (9/5): -
• 02 (9/5): - Everything is good Nothing
• Hope (7/5): It's good for just a place to sleep for one night - No breakfast included. The location is great None. It e only one night stay before my cruise trip. I was looking for convinence. This hostel suits me well
• Jia Xuan (7/5): - very close to interesting parts of Boston there’s very little room next to the beds
• TK (10/5): I had fun. - It’s an expansive property and quite huge for a hostel. There are about a million bathrooms on each floor (all private) which made it a lot easier to do things in the morning and late at night while feeling safe. It’s very close to public transport which I enjoyed and right down the street from Boston Common. N/A
• yujin (9/5): Loud Door Noises but Friendly Staff and a Great Atmosphere - The staff were friendly, the quiet hours were well respected, and the kitchen area was spacious and nice. I had a great stay. The noise from the doors closing, both in the room and the bathroom, was very loud and startled me at times.
• DaSilva (10/5): - Staffs are always good and helpful.
• Romsil (10/5): Best stay to understand and experience the city! - The Chinatown location was great - lots of food options and the tourist attractions were of walking distance. But what truly exceeded my expectations were the free activities organized by the hotel. I participated in 5 of them - and all were great! The MIT architecture, East Boston Skyline, and the Freedom Trail tours were so good, I would do them again. None.

• Stefanie (10/5): -
• Haris (10/5): -
• Martina (8/5): -
• Graham (5/5): Okay. - Location of hotel was good. Room was okay. It was clean. Most staff were friendly and helpful except one who was more interested in her paperwork. Paid for a Junior Suite, the room was a reasonable size but there was no carpet, just a stone floor and the room was very cold. After bringing this to the attention of the front desk they put the heating up a little but I wouldn't recommend staying during the winter. I thought it was over-priced for what it was.
• Mushfig Mammadov (10/5): -
• Maria de Jesus Rodrigues (2/5): Cansativo e decepcionada - A localização muito boa e a recepção para guardar malas são Muito atenciosos e consegui descansar Os lençóis de cama estava a cheirar mal queria quarto com mulheres e fiquei e Um quarto com 4 camas sendo só eu de mulher não consegui dormir nem por 1 minuto
• Dominique (10/5): -
• Vikki (10/5): Comfy bed, good location - This isn’t the first time I’ve stayed here - generally always a nice experience. N/A
• Souradeep (10/5): Exceptional - Location from South station or Chinatown, lots of restaurants around, comfortable bed, has storage.
• Rich (10/5): -
• Leglobtrotter (9/5): -
• Wenting (7/5): 厨房不错，调料多，床铺有帘子 - 距离火车南站步行10分钟左右，穿过唐人街，二楼厨房设备完美，有10多个食品存放柜子（写上你的名字), 灶台和水池在中央操作区，还有两个大型冷柜，用餐区干净整洁，早晚都有工作人员清洁锅具和灶台。 最可喜的是，二楼公共厨房有很多调料，有橄榄油，有醋和酱油，还有几个小的香料罐，这些调料给大家做饭带来很多欢乐和便利，青旅马路对面有华人超市嘉和超市，里面的菠菜不错，我们还买了皮蛋煲粥，煮了蘑菇菜汤面。味道好极了！！ 5月5日凌晨有个光头老外不知如何跑到323女生宿舍（8个铺），我们被他的高分贝呼噜声吵醒吓到，我下楼找前台未果， 回到房间，鼓起勇气开灯，让他回他自己房间，虚惊一场，同屋德国女生感谢了我两次，希望前台严格把关，不要发错门卡。

• Julie (8/5): -
• Juan David (10/5): Nice affordable place - Location is great, the room was cleans and quite. I was having a bad night due to the cold temperature but they gave me a extra blanket and that helps me a lot. There are no curtains on some of the windows in the room, this allows a lot of light to enter.
• mei-chi (8/5): not bad , but with higher price in general hostels stay, provide breakfast or even coffee or tea - no breakfast provide is really inconvenient. clean bathroom. the place has elevator ! nice

• RUI (3/5): 不好，不是一个人不推荐住！性价比低！ - 没有满意的地方 我6人间，价钱本来就贵，我自己买贵了不说，被安排的地方居然没有灯，头顶没有灯！！！前台冷冰冰没有纽约的那家好，整体都不如纽约！对波士顿的印象最差！脏乱差！
• JIANGTAO (10/5): Very nice! -

• James (8/5): -
• Chee Chen (10/5): -
• Rodney (10/5): excellent. - everything. nothing.
• Colett (9/5): Very nice staff and great customer service. - I felt safe in the hostel. The china town area left something to be desired
• Catherine (9/5): - L'emplacement, le personnel et l'accès rapide aux salles de bains Le bruit entre les chambres, mauvaise insonorisation
• Iao (9/5): -
• Dichiara Rizzo (10/5): It was great, close to everything and super quiet. Highly recommended. -

• Soner (8/5): stay here, you will not regret it. - facility was clean. location is good. room was quite. Staff could smile little more though. They were usually nice but could have smiled little more. The city tour and the tour guide, Fred was fantastic. Check in is after 3pm which is kind of too late for someone travel from long distance. It could be earlier. the curtain which covers bunker or bed does not cover the bunker completely all the way. The little part at the end of bed stays open. It would have been much better if the curtains go all the way to the end.
• okan (10/5): -
• Miguel (9/5): Muy bueno - La cadena Hi tiene varios hostels en diferentes ciudades, todos son buenos. Las habitaciones amplias, con cortinas en las camas lo que da más privacidad. Buena limpieza. Te dan toallas y hay dispenser de jabón en la ducha. En los pasillos hay bebederos y podes recargar agua gratis pero con muy poca presión.
• David (7/5): Double check your suite. - Location is good, within walking distance of chinatown, freedom trail and other sites to see. It was by no stretch of imagination "'clean". The sheets had some dark streaks on them and that prompted us to check with a UV light to see splatters of liquid along certain areas of the edges of the bed. After showing that to the staff downstairs they were appalled and immediately sent housekeeping to change sheets after which no stains were found. The switches and doorframe - under good lighting were filthy anyway, but under UV light it was appealing how much smudges it had on it. We did not dare to touch anything until we went - bought Clorox wipes and wiped anything we interact with.
• Abdul Majid Syed (6/5): it was ok - based on the cost and expectation. - There was no Wi-Fi signal towards my bed (520-5). This was completely out of range.
• RUEI-JHE (8/5): 不錯，不過青旅會吵 - 廁所很多也乾淨，服務人員友善 跟別人合住且有許多學生較吵
• Oshra (6/5): תמורה ירודה - מיקום מצויין, נקי מאוד בסיס המיטה לא מותאם למזרן, מה שגורם למזרן לגלוש קדימה ולכרית ליפול למרווח. המזרן ישן ועקום. החדר קטן וצפוף. האורות נכבים כל כמה דקות. המחיר יקר לתמורה הדלה.
• Wayne (8/5): Nice location and facilities considering the price. - Hi Boston Hostel is located near Chinatown and is just a few minutes' walk away from the closest subway station. The Hotel features a lot of different activities every day, including an interesting tour in Harvard. I live on the 4th floor, and none of the washrooms have a working hair dryer. Most of the washrooms don't even have a working socket where I can plug in my own hair dryer.
