It was good to stay in this conveniently-located residence. The downtown area is in easy walking distance, as is the theatre area and the MoFA. The "T" could be closer. I didn't get a confirmation of my online booking by email. Was this a hiccup or policy? Breakfast was varied, ample and nutritious. The staff were very helpful and there... More

Not sure what the deal is but there are certainly some people who stay that are not there for a hostel visit. Saw somewhere else that someone claimed it serves as a battered women's shelter which after staying, I may believe. So that portion could make some slightly uncomfortable. Otherwise, nice to have private room, good location and overall good... More

I stayed here with a friend for two nights, after staying in hostel dorm rooms for weeks and weeks the private rooms were a lovely break. Staff here were very helpful and kind and the breakfast was awesome- cooked breakfast and waffles! It is more similar to a hotel than a hostel as we did not really get the hostel... More

What can I say. You just can't find any other place to stay that offers a single bed to yourself and free internet for less than $120. Best of all, it's within the heart of the city. More

I enjoyed my stay at 40 Berkley, the room was comfortable, the free breakfast was delicious and the portions were plentiful. The residence was in the center of all the best cites we wanted to see. Everything was kept very clean and the showers were clean, spacious and well maintainied. I especially enjpoyed the professional staff. More

for a little extra, you can get a hotel. As a business traveler I would recommend paying the extra for a hotel because, the internet access was poor/not working, no phone in room (or wake up call), no tv or bathroom in room, and the room made strange banging sounds all night. I do not plan to come back. More

We were searching for a youth hostel not too far from the downtown and with reasonable prices, xe found it : 40Berkeley! The room was very good for three people and it was well heated in January. The breakfast is just awesome, with all king of food : pancakes, eggs, bacon, cereals, waffles, coffee, tea , several juices... Perfect! Stop... More

40 Berkeley is a very comfortable place to stay in a great central location in Boston. My room, and the shared bathroom across the hall, were clean and functional. Unlike other reviewers I didn't have any issues with heating (the room was hot on arrival, but cooled after turning down the heat). The communal areas were spacious and nicely furnished.... More

We stayed in the hotel in the middle of winter, and the heating didn't work. They had 4 nights to fix it but they never did, the room was freezing! More
