Location was good for my work travel. It was easy to access Boston (especially destinations on the south side). Dan was friendly and helpful, and provided more basic items than I needed (breakfast cereal, etc.) The room was comfortable and functional for my needs.

Located 5 minutes’ walk from Symphony Hall, this Boston guest house features shared outdoor terraces. Fenway Park, home of the Boston Red Sox, is 1 mile away.

A satellite TV and alarm clock are included in the air conditioned rooms at Oasis Guest House. Select rooms include an en suite bathroom. All rooms are non-smoking.

The interior is simple and a bit old style, but it’s impeccably clean, and cozy, like visiting your Irish or British grandma. It’s great value for money. I was a bit hesitant as it’s only two stars and I didn’t know what to expect, and it was great. I also like that it’s a small place, which makes it cozy and gives a totally different feel to these huge hotel chains

    The 4 bed room was quite okay in size. Overall hostel looks clean. However, bathrooms are limited, maybe in rush time, you could have to line up (I didn't have to but just saying). The breakfast was bit late at 8 AM, and was only bare essential, but I guess you can bring and eat your own food? It is close to 7 Eleven and within walking distance of Boston Common. I would say it was one of the good hostels I have seen in US, like European standards.

    A nice and cozy house with a great host. The location is situated in a quiet neighborhood, not so close to Boston downtown, but you can easily go there by bus (station is 2 minutes walk) and the the metro.
