Room was better equipped than the other places we stayed. We particlarly liked the spacious desk with brochures,TV, and two chairs and room for eating and writing. The bed was very comfortable with a lamp for reading. The location was perfect: safe, diverse neighborhood and you can walk to beach, red line, bus, restaurants, grocery and other stores. (Also friendly neighborhood bar). Christine (aka Killian) was wonderful: friendly, extremely helpful, not at all intrusive, and a good host with local flavor. She had the coffee ready the night before so all we had to do was plug it in! We would definitely stay here again. We highly recommend Christine and her cat, Stanley!.
