      Pawsitive Experience

      The staff was very friendly and helpful when our Great Dane was timid to enter the building. The rooms are lovely, plenty of space for Chief to move around and the windows were just the right height for him to see the view of Beacon Street. XVB was accommodating with attractive dog bowls, bottle water and a dog bed placed near the fireplace. I had hoped for a welcome treat or toy, or at least something for purchase, but no one inquired when I booked the connecting rooms what breed of dog we were bringing. Granted our check-in was a bit chaotic, but details in our welcome packets with instructions about where pets should relieve themselves would have been extra helpful in addition to the myriad of food menus. Chief settled in after a while and we had a nice time at XVB, but for our next visit to this particular property, we will leave the dog and kids at home. We are still looking for the best dog-friendly hotel experience in Boston.
