Meco Hotels

Really enjoyed my stay at Meco. I'd never done a capsule-style hotel before so I wasn't sure how I'd feel about it, but it won me over pretty quickly. The pods are cozy and well set up, with individual lighting, power outlets, and enough privacy. The storage under the bed was a nice touch too, easy to access and felt secure. Overall it was way more comfortable than I expected. Location is genuinely great. North Station is basically at your door, and TD Garden, Beacon Hill, and the North End are all easy walks. Transit was also easy to use. For what you pay, it's incredible value. Boston hotels can get pricey fast, and Meco kept things affordable without any real trade-offs. Everything was clean and well maintained throughout my stay too. One thing worth knowing: bring earplugs. Not everyone is aware of pod room etiquette, and during the day there was pretty much always someone on their phone or talking in the pod room. That's on fellow guests, not the hotel, but it's good to come prepared. Solid choice if you want a comfortable, central place to stay without spending a fortune. I would definitely go back.

For 3 days/2 nights during which the bathroom wasn’t cleaned once and two full trash cans weren’t emptied. I had booked the 4 person female dorm, so it was a little more expensive than the 17 bed dorm, but still very pricey. The location is fantastic and walkable, the service at the front desk was good, and the beds were all right. It worked for what I wanted - a bed for 2 nights in a good location in Boston. The owner did reach out later and make things right.

I love this hostel/hotel. I’ve stayed in hostels around the world, and there is nothing quite like a good pod hostel. I stayed here quite frequently because I have to fly in for my job and I always choose here. The pod is spacious and it’s the little touches that make it great. For example, I run hot, and at a lot of hostels you don’t have control over the temperature, but all of their pods have a fan, and I’m able to sleep well. You also have individual lighting, and multiple outlets. There are even hooks for your jacket and a mesh net to hold your belongings. It also feels more private than a normal hostel. Overall a great place to stay if you need something more affordable.

Pod in the large men's room. Clever conviences everywhere! Easy to navigate and good options - top floor is community space & serves well for having a place to set up for remoting. Large, lockable personal storage to boot! Recommended!

The pod space is small but clean and tidy. Considering how expensive the nearby hotels are, being able to stay for less than half the price is a huge plus. That said, the walls are thin, so your peace and quiet really depends on how considerate your neighbors are.
