Some of the best little gems are discovered by accident. For me, Studio Allston is one of them. LOCATION: it is a super quick Uber ride to where I wanted to go in both Boston and Cambridge. STAFF: unbeatable customer service in every aspect. ROOM: Fun art and dang comfy beds. What it lacks in a view out the window it way more than makes up for in countless other ways, including a wonderful lobby you’ll want to hang out in, included breakfast and an outside lounge that had live music during my stay. Go on, book it!
