Hostelworld says
Hostelling International Boston – Chinatown is a new hostel, just opened in June 2012 in a great central location near Boston Common, Chinatown, the subway and most of the city’s sights. This clean, modern and purpose-built hostel offers personal lights and power sockets at each bed and a ‘great atmosphere and lots of kitchen and common space for socialising, cooking, playing games or doing work on the free Wi-Fi’, according to one Hostelworld user. We like that this hostel is actively environmentally friendly.
Property Description
In 2021, Hostelling International became a signatory of the Global Tourism Plastics Initiative (GTPI), led by the UN Environment Programme (UNEP) and the World Tourism Organization (WTO), in collaboration with the Ellen MacArthur Foundation.

The room was uncomfortably hot during my stay, and unfortunately, there was no way to adjust the temperature as the lower key was missing. The lack of temperature control forced me to check out one day earlier than planned, as I needed proper sleep. It's clear from previous reviews that this issue is not new, yet it has not been resolved.
Another issue was with the door key, which randomly failed to work several times, causing inconvenience.
Furthermore, the staff didn't give any tour of the facility, re
