A booster generally not working will give a hard pedal. to test. With the motor off pump up your brake and leave your foot on. Start motor and brake pedal should drop a little bit.

Bad brake hoses can cause problems to but I would start at the mc and work down from there.

I also bleed my brakes like the next day also to see if any more air gets out.There can be other problems but see if that works
I was just thinking of this as a way to verify where the air is. Great suggestion.
