Frommer's Review
In an excellent location overlooking the Boston Marathon finish line, the Charlesmark has a boutique feel and great prices. It's both luxurious and -- literally, not figuratively -- no frills. The sleek, contemporary design uses custom furnishings to maximize the 1892 building's compact spaces. Guest rooms are small, but they have pillow-top mattresses and enough space to hold a comfortable chair. The Charlesmark's amenities don't challenge the perks of the neighborhood's large hotels, but they're more than sufficient for most business or leisure travelers. The second-floor lobby holds a computer and printer for guests' use. Rates include breakfast, light refreshments such as bottled water and fruit, and local phone calls, all part of management's policy not to pad your bill with incidentals. The only real drawback is that the building has just one elevator -- and if that's your biggest problem, you're doing pretty well.
Facilities:
Lounge; access to nearby health club ($10); laundry service; rooms for those w/limited mobility
