Daniel was great checking us in, answering questions, etc. Parking was available in the small lot, which was super convenient. Davis Square was about an 7 minute walk - easy access to the subway and all kinds of food. Everything was very clean and the room was a decent size. The neighborhood was very nice and seemed very safe. There was also a 7-11 across the street.

This bed and breakfast is located in Brookline and is 5 km from downtown Boston. This 19th century brownstone bed and breakfast offers free Wi-Fi in every room.

The Beacon Inn offers guest a daily light breakfast and coffee. This bed and breakfast is completely smoke free.

I was so positively surprised by this place. It is what anyone would expect from a bed & breakfast in the Northeast, USA. The staff was extremely helpful. My plane was late and I was able to coordinate the late check-in without any trouble. The room was a great size and the decoration was very homey. Rather than a modern impersonal hotel, this one is a character. Breakfast is included. Even though there is no designated living room to eat it on, you can serve yourself nice pastries, cereals, bananas, and hot drinks, either to go or to take to your room. The place that clean bathrooms ventilation and good heater. The location is GREAT. I will be back.

    A charming, little hotel in a Victorian house. It’s very quiet and close to Harvard square. The rooms were clean and the bed was comfortable. Friendly staff, especially the lady. No breakfast, but there was tea and coffee, and a kitchen in the basement for making your own meal. Would absolutely come back. Good value.

    Location excellent for visiting family and also Harvard. We had a quiet room at the back, so away from street noise which can be irritating in the rooms on the other side of the house. The Pemberton Farms store across the road provides a great choice of food for breakfast, to eat in the communal area with tea and coffee provided in the Guest House. Staff helpful and friendly.

    We stayed in the centre of Boston at the start of our trip and slightly further our at Porter Square at the end of our trip before flying home. Porter square was my favourite as it was cheaper, opposite an excellent thai restaurant and quieter too. Lovely room and location very close to a metro stop to get you easily into the centre of the city.
