The hotel was in a safe area. Also, it was right across the street from the subway. It was nice not to have to walk along way to transportation, especially when it was late in the evening. I would definitely stay there again.

This hotel was super cute, clean, and everyone was very friendly! I called ahead of time and they were able to get us in for an early check in. The bed was extremely comfortable! The room was small, but really didn’t need anything big. My friend and I were going to a concert at TD and just needed a place for the night. Also super convenient if you’re going to TD, the hotel was a 2 min walk from the commuter rail that takes you right into North Station.

Excellent spot for easy access to transit and urban but not too urban. Only housekeeping when requested. Fitness center way above average, especially for a small property. My room was super small but only needed for one person so manageable. Wish the “desk” was slightly bigger..just a shelf with stool.

Great Stay!
We stayed at Hotel 1868 for one night. The hotel was immaculate with nice design details throughout. Our bed was very comfortable and we loved the rain shower head in the bathroom. The location was in walking distance to many restaurants and cafes, wish we had more time to explore the area.
