Brintha's place is super clean, very quiet and really centrally located. We walked to everywhere on five self-guided walking tours (we found them on frommers). Also, the kitchen had what just what we needed - including good pans and knives! The building itself is very quiet, despite being in the heart of it all. Of the nearby places to eat, we really enjoyed Bar Hop Brewco, which is super close on Peter St. - really good food, tap selection and service.
