Yay Boylston Station :D
Underground green line station. I like the entrances to the station, I think they’re cool. Basically built like two big boxes but it’s more interesting than most of them. The lines are in different entrances so don’t go in the wrong one. I feel like the station is so loud. It’s the MBTA they’re all loud but idk maybe it’s just me.
4/10

Not a bad station but it is not accessible. There are only stairs, there are a lot of steps. The closest station with elevator is ‘Park St’, a minute walk.
Nice historic station except some structural wear. Not accessible for wheelchair.
This is a nice T stop. I went here and was satisfied with my experience. This station is located in Boston Common and very close to China Town, and every green line branch stops here, which is pretty convenient. However, this station is located on a curve, so trains create extremely loud screeching noises as they’re turning here, which probably causes long term hearing damage if you’re exposed to it repeatedly. I gave this station four stars because it’s in a great location, but I took a star off because trains here cause extremely loud screeching noises. It’s also important to note that the east and west bound platforms have separate entrances and are disconnected from each other.
Two different entrances, really? For the same line and they aren’t connected? This’s nonsense. And what about this noise? It’s so loud that wouldn’t have been surprised if I saw the train dragged by bourses like in 19th century. That’s the worst public transport I’ve ever seen.
It gets the job done but there are some things that need addressing. For one as many other here have pointed out the sharp turn means there are extremely loud screeching noises which is not only annoying but I can imagine also can cause long term permanent hearing damage.
Second there are a lot of rusting and deteriorating surfaces, even more than the average T stations. The sanitation, especially on the walls and ceilings, certainly need to be addressed.
One plus is that there are some old streetcars here from the T which are nice to look at but other than that this is just an ordinary stop on the green line.

Due to the sharp turn that the Green Line makes at this station, its trains make unbearably loud screeching sounds here. I'd recommend unless you absolutely cannot that you enter or exit the T at Arlington or Park Street instead.
