Great location of near Boston common, vicinity of both greens and many activities, such as experiencing history & arts, shopping and dinning’s in walking distance.

This was one of the best hostels! Great location and great gathering & lounging spaces. Convenient to the Orange line T, good restaurants, Boston Commons, and BlueBike depots. My only complaint would be the cleaners banging garbage cans at 5 am.
