FOUND Hotel Boston Common

Great location. HOWEVER. We stayed in the summer and used the air conditioning. The a/c unit made the worst noise and we couldn't sleep properly because even if we turned it off there was a pump that ran about every hour or so and woke us up. It was awful. We complained to the staff and they said that they were aware of the issue (!!!) and that even if they gave us another room all of the airconditioning units have the same issue. We were supposed to be staying for two nights for my husband to go to job interviews on Monday and Tuesday and so we ended up checking out a day early to get some sleep. We told the staff why and asked if they could refund the charge for the second night. They said okay. Then the hotel charged us anyway. Thank goodness for credit card charge backs. Also, I tried to upload a video of the noise and it won't let me so here's a photo of the a/c unit taken from a still of the video.

It's a very tiny room, enough for two to sleep but you need to crawl on to the bed if you're by the wall. Small but watchable TV, bathroom has sliding door and fan stand up shower no tub. No fridge, theres a safe and small standing closet. Windiw with black out curtain, "most" light blocked. There's pump bottles of body wash & shampoo. The front desk 2 of the 3 were super friendly and very helpful in general. Coffee, tea water available in lobby. You can doordash to the lobby. Lighting was good but don't bother with the overhead USB outlet over night it shuts off with the light switch. Use your own plug bring a couple long usb cords. All in all it was a nice experience comparable to glamping / camping experience. I saw one ant in our room.. but not a big deal. Everything else clean and not skeevy. Food is kind of pricey in area. Still overall I'd say it was a decent stay.

I was skeptical of this stay based on the reviews but we had a positive experience here at the found hotel. The room was small but that was shown in the pictures so we were already aware. The room was clean and stocked with towels, hand soap, lotion, body wash and shampoo. It was pretty noisy as you can hear all the sounds outside, people walking in the hall, and the elevator is loud but luckily I brought a sound machine. I do recommend that for more peaceful sleep. The staff was friendly during check in and check out. This was a nice stay just for one night where all we did was sleep in the room.

Review as an International Traveller Location - Super safe at night, accessible (<5-10 mins walk) by subway and near the beautiful Boston Common park. Staff - Front Desk - Super helpful Dorm Rooms (Shared Accommodation) - Room was clean, each room had its own bathroom, bunk beds had curtain and it felt great. Lounge - There is an underground lounge area to sit and work Con - No Kitchen or laundry but there is a laundromat nearby Overall no complaints.

It’s a perfect location an overall a cool vibe inside. It’s a no nonsense sorta downstairs, a small check in desk and coffee bar and then right to rooms. Only reason I didn’t give it 5 stars is because it just doesn’t feel like a super nice hotel. But it is nice if that makes any sense. I would totally stay here again if nothing else because it’s in a good location. You can walk to some great restaurants and shops right nearby. Last thought, which I think is the coolest feature. The two queen room we stayed in had two beds but separated by a curtain. So it felt almost like having two rooms. Easy and nice addition

Fair bargain for a good location hotel like this. The staff are really nice and friendly. Rooms are clean and the hotel is few minutes walk from the underground station. Note: the building is old and there is A LOT of noise! Day and night! From the elevator, the pipes and the guests walking in the corridors. But all in all this is quite good hotel for the budget tourist.

We chose the Found Hotel because we wanted a hotel close to Boston Common that was not overly expensive. The location was convenient and the room was ok but awfully basic.|Do you want to put your suitcase somewhere other than on the floor? Too bad. No dresser, no bedside table, no bench, no luggage rack. No couch, no upholstered chair. There was a small “desk” (no drawers) just big enough for the phone and a small lamp. The desk chair was not usable because the seat was not fastened to the legs.|The room is large but the bed is built in with only about 3 inches of clearance between the far side of the bed and the wall. Therefore I had a choice of climbing over my husband or wriggling up from the end of the bed. The mattress was a little lumpy but ok. Adequate lighting for reading in bed. Electric outlet for charging in a cubby hole on one side of the bed. The closet is tiny, with space for 5 hangers; it did have a safe.|The air conditioning was better than expected, because it had an actual temperature setting, not just high/low/off. I enjoyed the bathroom’s rainwater shower head. The bathroom also had an effective fan to remove steam and nice-enough towels.|There was coffee available in the lobby, which we did not try. There are several excellent coffee shops (Tatte and Café Nero) near the Arlington T (subway) stop.|Our room’s windows looked onto a wall not very far away, so no problem with noise from outside.|We parked in the garage across the street that the hotel advised, at a good discounted rate.|The art in our room and in the hallways was framed photos of ugly road underpasses, graffiti, etc.|When we got home, I read the reviews on Tripadvisor more carefully and was pleased that we had not experienced the problems some other guests had with mice, cockroaches, and double-billing.|In conclusion, I would choose another hotel on our next trip to Boston.

If you are looking for somewhere to lay you head and shower whilst visiting Boston this place is ideal. The rooms are small but perfectly formed with lovely bathrooms. We stayed as part of a 3 week trip, and so had a ton of luggage, and had no worries.|I did read some negative reviews but they all seem to be people who did not know what they were booking it is a lovely and interesting old place with great staff. The location is ideal with all the touristy bits of Boston in walking distance.
