Spent a Friday night in October at the Chandler. My room (306) was small, but ample for just myself. Spotless bathroom, Nice room with wide window and nice view of street. VERY comfortable bed and nice clean sheets and linens. HDTV with plenty of local and satellite/cable channels via DirecTV. Very friendly front desk clerk who knew where to go for local activities. My only complaint, which isn't really the hotel's, is the lack of parking. Most streetside parking in the immediate area is for local South End residents only. I did park in a vacant spot, and saw the sign, but figured I would take a chance;. Next morning there was a $40 ticket on my windshield. But that was my doing, and considering the price to park at a couple of local garages, and the distance from the hotel, I actually thought it was a bargain!!
Chandler is very convenient to South End/Back Bay activities; an easy walk.
Highly recommended, but reserve early. I had been trying since July to get a room here and they were booked solid. Only a couple of days before my visit was i able to find a vacancy by chance at 2AM on their website.
One other note. The Chandler is located above Fritz bar, which tends to be quite popular on weekends. When they close at 2AM, you may hear somenoise! It woke me up, but wasn't especially loud, and didn't last long.
