Lobby shop has limited stock and hours. Gym sanitizers empty. Tv offers no premium stations. Bar manager was settling cash draw issue with bartender in front of customers. Every one felt uncomfortable, not to mention there was no service. Rooms are old and tired.

Great hotel

We had a fantastic stay this past weekend. Easy check-in, and if you do it online with their email the day before it’s really easier when you get there. Easy walk to Fenway Park and the Prudential Center is literally across the street. Parking was great as well and could be added to the room or handled separately. Would definitely stay again.

Have stayed in the Colonade on numerous occasions. I found check in to be efficient but not friendly. The room was a good size but the shower was impossible to control. The coffee maker did not work and there was a stain on the carpet. We did not complain as we were only staying 1 night . A stop over after a long vacation. These items should be checked before the room is assigned.

Elevators are extremely slow and only one out of three works during checkout time in the morning. And you can only use the stairs up to 5th floor and can't come down all the way to the lobby.
