"The only interactions I had with staff was after checking in, someone directed us to the elevator. Didn’t realize anyone was nearby because I would have loved help checking in. And I called the front desk to have the expensive buffet removed after regrettably opting in while checking in. That person was nice. Otherwise, the hotel was basically STAFF-LESS. Ghost town.
The room was incredibly small! I didn’t expect that. The M in Citizen M mist stand for Macro? I hope you’re not expecting privacy while you use the bathroom and shower. And the bed is pushed against the wall, so someone has to climb over the other person. Hope you don’t get up in the middle of the night for the bathroom.
I didn’t enjoy the ipad to control the room either. No information on things to do in the area, or information about the hotel itself.
One of the elevators got stick on the third floor twice.
The location was great, as it’s across the street from the T, and there is Wendy’s, Dunkin, and Whole Foods nearby. That was probably the best part about staying here.
Designed for young couples- I’m not sure myself as a young couple would have enjoyed it, and as a parent traveling with a teen, we definitely did not enjoy it. It was clean, and it was the cheaper hotel we found, but we would have been happier paying double to stay elsewhere. Lesson learned! I would not recommend this hotel."
