Great Staff

I used to work in a hotel a long, long time ago. Still, whenever I travel I can’t help but compare service to the way I was trained. The Godfrey is one of the very few hotels that I have been to in the past 20+ years where I felt that everyone on staff had been trained to the standards that I learned. Without exception, the staff was courteous, dressed professionally, and seemingly eager to assist in any way they could to make our stay enjoyable. They are doing the little things right and I highly recommend the Godfrey.
Lobby bar. One complementary drink per night.
Elevator atrium. Just kind of nice.

Tv remote was dead in room then tv service was frozen or glitchy for 2 day. Word however was the noise . First 2 nights bad with street noise but then Friday night the music from a club was so loud I could sleep until it stopped at 1am. Had to get up for flight at 4:30. Zero sound dampened from hallway as well.

Wonderful Stay

We had a wonderful stay at the Godfrey. Friendly staff at check in and all round friendly and helpful. We stayed as a family with a seven year old daughter. It was a great location, great vibe, clean and comfortable. If we ever return to Boston, this is where we’d stay.
