Le Merdian: going downhill, next time: The Charles
We have stayed here multiple times and the service has really gone downhill. The rooms are not as clean. The service isn’t as good. The staff is limited and the people who do work there are a bit odd. There’s a Koehli bartender who never smiles or interacts with other humans except to fulfill their orders in the least pleasant way possible. The room wasn’t particularly clean. We were checked in by a lovely man who I believe is typically the door person and not the front desk person. The front desk staff was extremely odd and not particularly personable nor helpful.

Small broken room
Heat pump ventilation was broken. Very hot at night. Noise from next room due to shared passage door. Banging door at Ice and water station room kept us awake at night.
Small temporary armoire instead of real closet. Ironing board stored in room.

This is incredibly convenient to explore both the MIT and Harvard campuses and the staff was delightfully helpful. The rooms are a tad tired and the bath/showers old-fashioned for the top tier price we paid. But the beds were comfortable, it was quiet and we loved it as a walking base for Cambridge.
