Little Pochet Island

The staff were all super friendly and helpful.We did valet our car for 3 nights which was expensive ($60/night) but parking in Boston stinks anywhere and the valet was convenient so we didn't have to drive around looking for a garage.There is also a $40/night "hotel" fee which I know the city puts onto the bill but it is a bit ridiculous money grab. Our room (813) was a nice corner room. We loved the night light in the bathroom under the mirror that was red and on a motion sensor. The shower was clean, with a strong shower head. I'm 6'2" and fit in the shower with ease. The room also had a safe and the service was great. My kids LOVED the fact that snacks and water were included. They are so programmed to never eat anything in the room. There were bikes available in the lobby but my 12 year old was a little nervous riding in the bike lanes so we just walked everywhere. We picked the Godfrey because of it's central location and proximity to Boston Commons. You are near Cheers, the Freedom trail and subway. We walked to Fenway for a game because it was so nice outside (35 minutes) and took the subway back after the game. My only complaint would be the placement of the mini-fridge. It was right next to one of the beds where you lay your head to sleep so it would turn on/off all night. It was loud enough to be quite annoying to the person sleeping in that spot. If they could put it inside of piece of furniture or move it away from the bed that would help.

Safe, friendly staff, garage discount, great location. Easy check in and check out.

I'm 81 years old and carried my own bags to my room as I checked in. No one offered. Therefore, no staff showed certain features in the room as I'm used to when staying at a new hotel. A reminder from young staff to older people checking in that the key is necessary to use elevator. Every traveler is not young and hip.
