Reserved a standard room through the hotel. We had been travelling for almost three week when we arrived and when entering the room we could not do anything but laugh. The standard rooms are really small and with two big suitcases it was difficult to find space for ourselves. The bathroom small, but big compared to the room itself. If travelling alone or if you do not need much space; for example just for a weekend getaway it might be sufficient. The room itself clean. Nicely furnished and with complimentary internet and water. Complimentary breakfast in the reception area. After two days we decided to ask if they had any other rooms available; and to our surprise we got a complimentary upgrade. A much bigger room with a sofa, a wardrobe and space for two persons and our luggage! The hotel is nice with a lively bar and a thai restaurant next door. The service is personal with a will to make an effort for the guest. The area has plenty of dining options and it is close to the park. Recommended, but make sure to book the right room.

We?ve decided to write to Chalesmark Hotel to plan a travel with others friends in the next May 2009 after to have read the good references left by others travellers. We sent to them 2 emails and they?ve not answered to us. We call for them (from Brazil!) to know if the email address was incorrect and anyway if they have rooms. Who attended to the phone was really ugly saying to me that they are a small hotel and they have only "few" rooms avaliable for the next May (now we?re in July 2008!!!). I think just that they don?t want to reserve to us and this was really unpleasent. Anyway they could answer to our email. In my opinion REALLY overestimated!

We just returned from a weekend stay at the Charlesmark in Downtown Boston. Although the weekend was damp and cold it didn't hamper us from having a great time in this marvellous city. The Charlesmark proved to be everything I expected it to be: 1. Reasonably priced. 2. Excellent location.. 3. Personable staff who were very eager to attend to all our requests. 4. Very clean. The rooms were a little on the small side but this didn't pose a serious problem. The bathrooms were good size and clean. The only real drawback was the parking was further than I would have liked and the price was not as advertised. Next time I'm in Boston I'll definately stay there again.
