I loved the theme and getting to stay in a former firehouse. The staff at check in was great!

The service is very good. Everyone at the front desk is funny and friendly. The room is clean. They also gave us chocolate lollipops, fruits and cookies. It is a very unique hotel. It is opposite Google Boston and next to MIT.

Right next to the Kendall subway station. There is a kettle and two bottles of mineral water and snacks. The pre-sale fee of $100 was refunded on time when I checked out. Not bad. An antique hotel. Right next to Massachusetts. Check-in was also smooth. SL1 from the airport is free, and you can get there by transferring to the red line.

酒店就在MIT裏，門口10米左右是地鐵站入口，交通非常方便。早餐有雞蛋、烤土豆、培根、各種麪包、飲料、水果等。我們住了5天，早餐都是一樣的，足夠了。服務非常好，第一天到店有水果放在房間。第二天趕上下雨，酒店有雨傘外借，不需要交按金。非常推薦。

主要為了讓孩子提前感受下名校生活，優先考慮住哈佛或者麻省旁邊步行可達的酒店，來看看去選了麻省產生這家，酒店前身是消防站，而後改建成現在的酒店，很有年代感，走路去麻省遛彎很方便，主打行李比高。
