Sonder 907 Main
4.0 star property
8.2 out of 10, Very good, (401)
"Check in and out were both fast and easy thanks to the app. My only gripe is if you happen to be staying on the 4th floor like I did, be warned that there is a rooftop bar on the 5th floor so you’ll hear chairs pulling in and out until they close at midnight, followed by what I’m assuming is a garbage or mop bucket rolling around for a few hours after that. The patio from the adjoined restaurant Althea can get a little noisy as well, but it does die down around 10pm. "

Maverick Suites at 28 Fenway
3.0 star property
9.0 out of 10, Wonderful, (148)
"The facility looks amazing and exceeded our expectations. The communication was clear and seamless. The location is great; however, every morning around 5-6 a.m., there was a very loud garbage pickup just under our window. The view from the window was a brick wall from the building across. The insulation of the unit is poor. The room was very cold, despite the AC set to 75F and with the additional portable heater (which was a very welcome addition). It took 2 days to warm the unit up."
