The Charlesmark could not be better located. It's right in the heart of the swankiest shopping and residential district in Boston, a short and beautiful walk from the magnificent Boston Common, all of the top restaurants in town at your fingertips. It's also 50 yds from a T stop that can get you anywhere you can't walk. In terms of the property itself... One can't help but get the impression that this used to be a college dorm. The rooms are small and spartan, albeit pristinely clean. The bathrooms are tiny. The artwork on the walls screams dorm art. Since I was in town, partly, to visit my alma mater, this aesthetic seemed somewhat appropriate. But the term 'boutique hotel' clearly means something different at the Charlesmark than it does in a place like New York or Paris. Amenities are all a la carte, there's no on-site gym or spa. I'm not at all upset that I stayed there, but I think for the money I would probably make another choice next time.

(NO breakfast) The breakfast was very minimal — just a small croissant and coffee. No juice, fruit, or variety. There was also no tea or coffee in the room, and nothing available in a common area, which was disappointing. That said, the location is excellent — right in Back Bay, across from the Boston Public Library and steps from Copley Station. The staff at reception were warm and helpful, and check-in was smooth and pleasant.

We spent good money to stay at a hotel within walking distance of the venue we were going to. The first thing is that they put us on different floors. Not a big deal, but inconvenient. Then we saw a mouse run into one of the rooms we booked. When we complained, they did nothing. We also found blood all over the bathroom and stains on the bedding. When we brought this up to the front desk, they assured us we would be contacted for a refund of some kind. They have not called, and when we call to speak to them, they send us to voicemail. Not worth the money.

Great customer service - even the lady that was on overnight was very pleasant! Quick to help and provide us with what we needed. Close to Fanway Music Hall, great dining options, and lots to see and do around them. Small botique but comfy, cute, and would stay again.
