Really nice clean and quiet modern room and bathroom, very comfortable bed. Excellent location steps from Boston commons, right on the freedom trail, just cross the street and follow the red brick path. Convenient valet parking. One complaint is that parking was included with my package but the hotel charged for it anyways. They did promptly remove the charge when I pointed it out to them. Also there was some small extra standard charge of $30, not sure exactly for what but didn’t want to argue. Will stay again.

We rented the presidential suite and 2 additional queen rooms for our July 4 stay. The rooms were good, except the presidential suite smelled like a cigar lounge and had some suspect white powder all over the glass coffee table. Upon departure, I reviewed my charges and discovered they charged me $250 for smoking, even though the smoke was there when I arrived. Furthermore, there was an array of unexplained charges and some credits on my card, the end result of which they overcharged me $535. Despite numerous emails to the front desk staff at the hotel trying to resolve the problem, and promises from them that it would be corrected, it's now 5 weeks since I have checked out and they have not returned my money or explained the overcharges. Good luck if you plan to stay with AKA.

I couldn't find the room darkening blinds so I asked for a $28 eye mask. I wished they would've mentioned that the blinds were not easy to find since that was quite pricey. I also wished the fridge had better space for my own items. Very noisy on a Saturday morning.
