8/17/25 - Got a room on the fifth floor, pretty interesting. - A little dusty with some cobwebs in the lamps. Room very colorful with pleasant sofas and a large TV. - They have some paint supplies on main floor, attendants were nice.

Convenient location near Soldiers Field and Harvard. Rooms are comfortable enough but parts of the hotel could benefit from updating. The funky/artist vibe mostly works giving the place a quirky feel in all the right ways.

First of all, the only reason I said the rooms were 4 stars is because I wanted to be sure and highlight the service as 5 stars. Rooms were fine. Nothing fancy, but comfortable and clean with plenty of space. The people were the secret ingredient here.They could not have been more helpful and accommodating. Parking was easy self-parking (though watch the height if you have a taller vehicle or a roof rack!). Breakfast was good enough. Coffee, pastries, waffles...the usual. They also have a really nice outside space for dining and happy hour. And it's across the street from a nice park that sits on the Charles River. My new go-to place to stay in Boston.

The lobby is very nice— there’s pool tables, ping pong tables, and beer taps. The art across the hotel gives a great vibe and separates it from other hotels. The rooms on the other hand are terrible. The bathroom is falling apart. Everything in the room is worn down. The barn door for the bathroom is awful. There’s a 1 inch gap where you can see into the bathroom which is very annoying. Also the shower curtain didn’t work and caused the whole floor to get wet. There’s also little crevices in the ceiling in the closet where mildew is growing. The staff are nice, but there aren’t many people there. Also, the layout is very weird and confusing. If you’re in the back section, you have to go up the elevator, down a few hallways, down stairs, down more hallways… The hotel is a good concept, but needs help.

I had a really enjoyable stay at Studio Allston Hotel! One of the standout features is definitely the decor—each room has its own unique, artistic vibe, which makes the experience feel fun and different from your typical hotel stay. The rooms were comfortable, and I appreciated the plenty of parking and the complimentary breakfast, which was a nice bonus. The property also has a great outdoor beer garden/restaurant area, which adds to the overall experience and gives it a lively atmosphere. The hotel itself is starting to show its age in some areas and could use a bit of refreshing, but it didn’t take away from the stay. One thing to note is that there isn’t much security when it comes to accessing the rooms. The only real issue I had was the temperature—it stayed pretty warm (around 70°), which was a bit much for me. Thankfully, the windows open, which helped a lot. Overall, for the price, this is a great place to stay if you’re looking for something a little more creative and different with a relaxed vibe. I’d definitely consider staying here again

I stayed at this hotel recently. Location-wise, it is a good hotel for visiting local universities such a Boston Univ., Harvard and Boston College, and it is a short commute into Boston. The room was clean and room service was good. One major drawback had to do with the loud, sanitation depot next door. I woke up to the sounds of loud sanitation trucks at 5:00AM two of the days I was there. The hotel also tacked on a daily $35 facility fee, which was not listed when I booked my reservation. I would have preferred to see this fee upfront when I booked the room instead of being made aware of the charge and when I checked in. Finally, there are 2 wings to the hotel. If your room is located on a higher floor in the south wing, you'll have a tedious commute to the front desk and dining area, having to take one elevator to the second floor, walk down a long corridor and then take a second elevator to a higher floor of the south wing.

I found the hotel relatively difficult to find but that was mainly due to how Google Maps works in Boston. Once there, the parking lot walk to the main entrance is shabby. The parking lot sits across from a run down warehouse with broken windows and dumpsters which lowers the first impression. The lobby is cute and the pool table and restaurant area along with the patio (which we could not access due to weather) were clean, comfortable, and stylized. Upon checking in I learned that there was a parking fee in addition to the amount I booked the room for. My room was in the south studio all the way on the other end and there is no one there to offer to assist with luggage. Once in our room we found it to be tidy and the decor fit the vibe of the hotel. The bathtub was painted white and had gray stains on it which my daughter thought was dirt. (Room 240). The next morning we had to get in touch with guest services to ask a few questions. It took 5 separate calls because the previous attempts either went unanswered or the line was busy. Once we reached someone the gentleman was very kind. Breakfast was ok. Nothing special. Baked goods that came from a package, yogurt, bagels, etc.. No table service. It was an average experience. If you want an above average rating provide an above average experience.

This was my first stay at Studio Allston, and it a was a great experience! I travel a lot, and don’t usually write reviews but everyone was incredibly helpful and welcoming. Parking was super convenient and the location was perfect for my needs. Shout out to all of the amazing staff who helped with recommendations, directions, and making my stay super comfortable as a solo traveler. Thank you to Jonathan and Melissa who were the managers who assisted me. Klara was incredibly warm and welcoming upon check in. Shout outs to Mollidy, Dezarae, Ashleigh, Lucas, and Ervens who were ready and willing to lend a helping hand whenever I had a question, or got turned around on my way to the lobby. Traveling alone can be nerve racking but these guys made my stay great! Will definitely be back.

Stayed here for a fencing tournament this weekend. The rooms, elevators, hallways are dated. Feels very dingy. Charged $115 for a pet fee. It’s extremely expensive considering how much other hotels are charging. The front desk staff members are friendly. We had some construction noise issues the second night and they waived the facilities fee when I complained. They said it’s winter maintenance. The complimentary breakfast was the worst I experienced in a hotel. The only hot food item was the hard boiled eggs. Considering they have an on site restaurant I wonder why they don’t provide better breakfast. We stayed here because it is walking distance from the fencing tournament. Location is great for that. I won’t stay here again though. It’s just too dingy.

What a find! Clean, spacious, attractive, comfortable, safe, and in an excellent location. Easily accessible from Mass Pike. Walkable area with plenty of reasonably priced ($15) onsite parking. Ample breakfast. Onsite Craft Food Halls a nice bonus. Weekend social hour provided free wine and charcuterie cups! Staff was friendly and honored our early check-in request. Perfect overnight for our recent trip to see a show at nearby (20 minute easy walk) Roadrunner. Will definitely return!
