Pros (+) Location. Nice personne at the entrance. Very clean and original. Confort. Smell good everywhere. Loved our room.
Cons (-) The shower need to offer a better shower system. We were Frozen. Restaurant is more a fast food. À lot of choices in the menu in the elevator...many meal are not present in the menu in the restaurant. The girl didn’t have explanation. We had 4-5 mistakes in our order. No vegetable in our plate. Tones of fries, and your meat choice. Forget it for a romantic dîner a saturday night...
Pros (+) nice pillows and pretty good mattress.
Cons (-) The gym was a little small.
Pros (+) Valet guy. Drawing on room wall. N/A
Cons (-) Front desk staff - rude, unhelpful, not knowledgeable. Literally acted like cared zero shits about your hotel and your guests. Upon check-in they seemed upset, acting like our arrival was imposing on their evening. It was raining and we requested an umbrella, which meant she had to leave the counter, this had her huffing and puffing. No greeting upon entry, ever. Not accommodating, whosoever. Just...

Pros (+) We checked in, headed up to our room, and found a party going on in it. Upon reporting that to the front desk, they were completely confounded. They found another room (supposedly larger than the first) and gave us drink coupons for the inconvenience. No problem. The room was small. 6" between the end of the bed and the desk. But otherwise ok. So we headed down to the bar and ordered two dry marti...

Pros (+) I loved the modern interior design and how friendly and helpful the staff was. My wife and I stayed at the Boxer for two nights for our mini-moon. We told the front desk staff that it was our honeymoon, and then about ten minutes later, a piece of red velvet cake and a bottle of champagne arrived at our door, completely on the house. We were very impressed.
Cons (-) My only complaint is that the rooms in the pictures from the website looked bigger than our actual room.
Pros (+) Beautiful hotel, incredibly friendly staff, old fashioned luxury with modern touches, amazing bed
Pros (+) The staff was extremely helpful and friendly, especially Fred!
Cons (-) I'm not too keen on the standup shower. Sometimes it's nice to soak in a tub while on vacay.
Pros (+) Services was fantastic at this hotel. The room was ready right away, and my request for extra's in the room was honored. Ease of taxi service, and just across the street from the T and garden.
