Frommer's Review
The Harborside Inn offers an unbeatable combination of location and value. The renovated 1858 warehouse is across the street from Faneuil Hall Marketplace, on the edge of the Financial District and less than 2 blocks from the harbor. The nicely appointed guest rooms, which have queen-size beds and hardwood floors, underwent renovations in 2007. Rooms surround a sky-lit atrium; units on the top floors of the eight-story building have lower ceilings but better views. Rooms that face out are more expensive but can be noisier; I have a letter here from a reader who could hear garbage trucks. You can't reserve an interior room, with windows that open only to the atrium, but you can request one at check-in if you're a light sleeper.
Facilities:
Lounge; access to nearby health club ($15); concierge; room service until 10pm; laundry service; dry cleaning; rooms for those w/limited mobility

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.
Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.
The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
