10/10 Excellent
"I had a terrific 3 night stay. I requested a room that did not have a connecting door. My room was so quiet. Double pane windows took care of any traffic noise from Front Street. My last stay at the Dorchester was 15 years ago. It has been very nicely renovated. Very friendly and helpful staff!"
