The Boylston Hotel Capitol Hill, Sonder

very satisfied with the stay! very clean and the location is good.

They were able to accommodate a room change on short notice when my husband broke his leg the day before we arrived and needed a ground floor room.

Our tv didn’t work. Stayed 4 nights. On last night a nice guy came to look at it, who stated this room 606, is out of contact with the router and never gets internet, or tv so why put us in there?

this is not a hotel. It is a poorly appointed B&B. If, like me, you’re the sort of weirdo who travels with a suitcase, you’re going to love being lodged on the sixth floor of a building with no elevator. If, also like me, you walk with a cane, those 70 stairs up to your room should provide ample opportunity to think about your many bad choices. I trust reserving this place will be near the top of your list. If you want a cup of water, there is a broken dispenser on the sixth floor. There is (was?) a working one on the fifth floor. At 1:30 am, a guest came onto our floor and began screaming, in a never-ending chorus, “mother f’er,” “what the f did you say to me?” and “what the f is this?” He then smashed the metal bins and made various other fun sounds (everything is music!”) I immediately called down to the front desk— just kidding! There is no front desk, or any employees of any kind. Or a phone! There was a number to text, which I did. At 2am. no response. The establishment has many thoughtful details. It provides body wash and shampoo and conditioner. Unfortunately, it has mounted these in such a way as to make their dispensers inoperable. Cost effective! Also cost effective is their outsourcing of other tasks to their guests. Run out of toilet paper? waddle down the hallway and grab a roll, assuming that drunk guy didn’t already smash it. Blow a fuse? There’s a handy how-to sign affixed to the wall! You know where I do household errands? In my house.

Great location For one person, the room we had would have been fine, but it was very cramped for two. The shower was also clearly designed with a couple in mind (clear glass). With that said, the bed was comfortable; the hotel was clean; and it was well maintained. The location was excellent - easy to access the airport; close to the Capitol Hill neighborhood; and relatively close to downtown Portland and the adjacent tourist areas.
