Frommer's Review

In a residential area 3 blocks from the Boston-Brookline border, this well-kept three-story Victorian guesthouse offers comfortable accommodations at modest rates. The interior style is homey, with accents that suit the building's architecture. Rooms were redecorated in 2007, with new furniture and crisp color schemes. Guests have use of a fully equipped kitchen, a common dining room, and a patio furnished with tables and chairs. The apartment has a private bathroom, kitchen, and balcony. Tennis courts, a running track, and a playground at the school next door are open to the public. Public transportation is nearby, and the Longwood Medical Area and busy Coolidge Corner neighborhood are within easy walking distance.

Facilities:
Coin-op laundry

About Our System

Frommer's ranks every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment it reviews for quality, value, service, amenities, and special features using a star-rating scale, an expression of the strong compare-and-contrast opinions that are a brand hallmark.

Other ratings provide stars based primarily on price and amenities; the Frommer's star rating is meant to quantify the kind of intangible, experiential elements that help travelers make informed decisions.

The "baseline" recommendation is zero stars--every hotel, restaurant, attraction, shop, and nightlife establishment that Frommer's chooses to review is recommended; otherwise, we simply wouldn't include it.
