I really like the bag of towers, slippers, pajamas etc hanging on the wall in my room. The front desk provided umbrellas for guests to borrow. They gave me a sense of home. But the shower was broken and needed to be replaced.

This was my first time in Boston for my niece's graduation from Boston University. I was fortunate to come across the Revolution Hotel while looking to make hotel reservations. I was there for three nights and I truly enjoyed my room with a beautiful tree top view. I highly recommend the Hotel Revolution. I plan to stay there in my future visits to Boston!

I really loved the decor and lounge area. I had a room with king bed with shared bathroom - very cozy and beautifully appointed. The shared bathroom down the hall was very convenient and each was an individual toilet/shower - cleaned multiple times throughout the day so always felt fresh and clean. This will now be my go-to hotel when I visit my daughter! Great diversity in the clientele.

In my entire life, this was the worst hotel experience ever. The only reason why I made the reservation with this hotel knowing that it was a shared bathroom was because they said on the internet and themselves that the bathrooms are constantly cleaned 24 hours... Sure right. They would only show up when you call them and during my stay, my wife couldn't take 1 shower because there has not been once we can find a bathroom that was cleaned for use. And on the second day, if you keep complaining about a clean bathroom, you will summon the manager who will come up and give you an attitude confronting you that he will show you a video clip that they are cleaning. Ok, Genius, yes I see your staff cleaning but did you ever think that when is the time your staff should keep up with customers using the bathroom? morning peak and evening peak. and on top of that, you have 2/6 bathrooms out of order. And at times, you will find a bathroom that says clean and when you walk in, you will find it full of curly facial hair all over the sink which will gross you out. You will also find a "ready" bathroom with a woman's period pad with blood in a trash can as you walk in. Since I can't post any pictures here, I will give this review on Yelp as well. And then when you tell the front desk, they will evade and tells you we'll give you discount each day and when you check out you pay the full price. Thanks to Revolution, I will not be visiting Boston ever again. Purely disgusting place.
