Pros:

Perfekte Lage im Zentrum, nah bei allen Touristenattraktionen. Es dringt kein Lärm von draußen rein. Jeden Tag Wasser und Knabbbereien aufgefüllt.
Mit den öffentlichen Verkehrsmitteln vom Flughafen ans Hotel geht sehr schnell und ist kostenlos. Frühstückempfehlung vom Hotel auch sehr gut. Es gäbe aber diverse Alternativen in der Nähe. Zimmer und Bad geräumig.

Beautiful hotel with excellent location
Pros:

The proximity to so many places I wanted to visit was ideal, very central. The hotel itself also looked very beautiful even the furniture was older - it contributed to the dainty charm. I also loved that they gave you sooo many snacks free of charge every day: potato chips, cookies, all sorts of goodies. The staff were also great and the cleaning was good.

Cons:

Since I visited during the World Cup, there was a bit of noise coming from outside the hotel during the first night. However, it stopped and didn’t happen again in the following nights.

Don't stay here if you have a choice.
Pros:

It was generally clean.

Cons:

I asked for a quiet room and was put in a room at the back with no natural light, right by all of the air conditioning units, which made a racket 24/7.

Wonderful!!!
Pros:

The location of The Godfrey is fantastic, 2/3 minute stroll to the Boston Common! The Staff are amazing, rooms have so many extras as standard, housekeeping is impeccable, hotel spotless, the connecting Cafe is perfect for light breakfast eat in or take out.
We booked a Superior King and were offered an inner quiet one on checkin which we took, perfect room if a little dark, but definitely did not take away from the overall experience.
Would highly recommend The Godfrey, it’s within walking distance of everything, again excellent staff and housekeeping.
We look forward to returning

I enjoyed our stay and would use the Hotel again if i was in the area.
Pros:

Hotel was centrally located. It was clean and met our needs. All of the staff from front desk, bellman and valet was all very pleasant and accommodating

Cons:

The cost to valet park, but i guess it comes with the territory
