This property was great, from the moment we checked in until the day we checked out. Every staff member we interacted with was courteous and helpful! The rooms were clean and modern, the bed was comfortable, the AC was amazing during the heatwave, unlike the hotel we transferred from which had no AC during 90+ degree weather. We didn't eat at the restaurant but had drinks at the bar and they were delicious!! The bar staff was friendly as well. Highly recommend staying here.
The hotel has been renovated and the rooms a beautiful. I have stayed there previously, and it has always been very clean and quiet. The restaurant is very good and the staff are excellent.
We had an excellent overall experience at the Sheraton Commander. We highly recommend this hotel for all visitors to Boston. It was clean, cozy, and in the perfect location.
It was a nice clean area. Staff were nice but my friend and I didn't expect to get 1 queen bed and a pull out of sofa as the 2nd queen bed. We saw it was supposed to be 2 actual queen beds. Besides that it's a nice area and easy to get to
We loved our stay at the Sheraton Commander. The rooms are very spacious as is the bathroom. The shower was also large. Loved the big windows. The thermostat worked well. Everything was clean. The staff was friendly. It was a close walking distance to Harvard. We have no complaints!
