I showed up to Storyville at 10p for a birthday party. It notes on their website that they open at 9:30p - but I guess not tonight? The argument was that the DJ was still setting up. After being prompted to pay a $20 cover the minute they opened their doors, I explained I was part of a party. To which the hostess said, "Oh...I dont have a guest list yet so either you can pay $20 or wait here til I have one." A few minute later, the manager arrived to his shift and told her he was going to print out the guest list. After that ordeal, I payed my $10 cover and went into an empty bar. No one was there for the next 15 minutes. the DJ was nowhere to be seen either so Im not sure what he was "setting up." I decided to use the mens bathroom at the beginning of the night and noticed it smelled as if it hadnt been cleaned since the night before...like dry piss to be exact. After a couple of drinks, I went to use the mens bathroom again which was covered in vomit. With the bottom of my shoes covered in throw up, the bathroom attendant wanted me to tip him for squirting soap in my hand. Cant do it. On my way out, i told the hostess about the vomit and she said "I dont even know who I would tell about that" - maybe the manager?!? Seems like a logical first step. Oh wait...he was too busy admitting strings of girls into the club for no charge, so much so that he pushed me out of the way to make room for a line of fresh meat. Why people think this is the best thing Boston has to offer is BEYOND me. Have some respect for yourself and the city, and avoid Storyville at all costs.

Cannot put a 0 cuz i cant ... Really bad experience, spending at least 600 dollars and getting a poor service by a curly stupid blond who doesnt know what shes doing because shes think to do what shes wants to do !!!! Ok so you dont know fuck about hospitality you stupid blondy girl and all of your staff close to you thats insane how you people can manage that place with this all incompetents mind ... Take the money of people quickly and thats it ..why no service ...you deserve only bad review because you are all looking for it ... There is a manager but it looks like a chicken might be better than him .... I never write reviews because no one treat me like you did tonight, dont expect my sympathy about the way you find your own hospitality ... hope youll be close soon, if THIS PLACE CAN STILL OPEN SO EVERYBODY CAN GET A NIGHTCLUB. To this uncerebral girl ...go fuck yourself who the fuck you think you are.... dont give a finger just to insult me because I was telling you the truth about the way you acted and your fucking bad hospitality. I just want you to read this note to be at least better with your own entourage ... cetait une catastrophe ce lieu ....une belle merde.

I went here on a Saturday night for a friends birthday party. We didnt get a table but still had an awesome time. First of all, there is no cover. Secondly, the bartenders are great. The place is kind of pricey ($10 for a cocktail, $5-7 for beer) but the bartenders whipped up some tasty concoctions. The one bartender made lemonade from scratch for my special request of vodka lemonade. I know, not the most difficult of things to make but at many clubs the bartenders do not care to take the time to do special requests. The crowd as mid twenties to early thirties, which is a refreshing change from a college-kid dominated city. I would definitely go back here. Table service would be fun but then I would miss out on the bartenders! Oh and the music was pretty typical club music. Some people were dancing but there wasnt that pressure to dance.

Went here for a bachelorette party and my friend inquired about getting table service for us. They werent particularly nice about it and she questioned the manager when she came by. My friend was tipsy but not at all belligerent or troublesome. The manager, when she realized my friend as arguing (peaceably) with her about getting table service, called security to forcibly escort her out. I said we would take her out and there was no need to grab her as she wasnt causing anyone any harm, and security got upset and said theyd force me out too if we didnt get out. I cant recall ever being treated so poorly and there was absolutely no cause for it.

Great Deals

So, heres the top of iceberg, Storyville/Minibar, has many times over charged my credit card seperate charges, they even fraudulently use someone else debit card to cover others tab. Just recently my friend went there and they threw the credit card in the thrash because she forgot to tip and write totals, after signing her slip. This time she threw away her card after she rung it, because she forgot to tip on her last purchase. You see, when you forget to tip, they throw your card away or swipe your card simultaneously so that you can take it up with their bank. You have been warned, so far it has happened to me and my friend Ratchel.

Very unprofessional and I urge patrons looking for a good night out to choose another club. One bouncer ruined the experience for me and the management was completely unresponsive the next days. I was violently pushed and talked down to by a bouncer as I waited outside too close to the ropes. I was sober and asked the bouncer for an apology but was rejected and shunned. I felt hurt and embarrassed and never received a response from the management/owner team which reflects the attitude it has on its patrons. Better places than this for a night out in Boston.

the greatest thing about this place is that its free to get in. I love the red dim colored lighting as you feel that your in a classy club. what I did not enjoy was that its one of those spots where you get drinks spilled all over you no matter where you go. The floors are wet with alcohol and the drinks are pricey as well. The music is a hit or miss, in one room theres techno/house and the other mostly all over the spectrum. Hip-hop, top 40s, reggae, depends on the DJ really. Above all if you just want to have a decent night with friends this is a good place.

I attended a Private Party in the Basement Space. The sound system and DJ were pretty good this night and the Bartenders were adequate there were enough problems with this place that makes it not the swanky, classy place that it thinks it is. The Mens bathrooms were filthy and there were dozens of black flies in the toilets and in the sinks. The soap dispensers were broken and the paper towels were installed upside down so when you pulled one you got 8. The apps that were being passed around tasted like frozen meals bought from Costco, not in a good way.

Came in on a Wednesday night for one of the parties 6one7 promotes. You can RSVP before 10pm to get free admission otherwise it is $20 to get in. While that seems steep for a Wednesday this place gets really busy and looks like any other clubs Friday or Saturday night does. Drinks seem to run in the $10 - $12 dollar range. The music was great, a mix of hip hop, electronic, with some international stuff mixed in. Overall a great crowd, good service, and music. Next time I have a Thursday off from work I would return.
