We had an excellent weekend stay at the aka. The location is fabulous - right across from Boston Common and the Granary Burial Ground on the Freedom Trail. Great central location to visit all part of the city. Rooms are small as expected but nice, staff was great. Complimentary wine happy hour from 4-5 each day was a nice bonus.

Comfortable room and very helpful staff. Rebecca who was running the bar when we were there was especially lovely and gave us some great advice. Breakfast was plentiful and tasty. The only downside was the lack of a restroom in the ground floor.

Overall hotel was good. Location was fantastic. However, NO coffee for early risers; only available after 0700. And there were bright lights above the bed that would not turn off- the outlet lit up, crazy.

Some of the staff was most helpful. Some forgot to mention we were entitled to a larger discount and didn’t even apologize when we found out randomly. Very long wait for food in the breakfast restaurant, however: most kind staff there and really good food.
