I just got back from my trip and I feel totally rested. I had a wonderful time in Boston and Christiane was a great host. I felt welcomed in her home and the private room was more than I expected. If you are looking for the " cookie cutter experience" you might want to go somewhere else. Christiane's home has a cozy charm and I felt totally comfortable there. The Charlestown neighborhood is amazing , full of history and charm. Dining at the historic Warren Tavern is a must do. There is easy access to downtown Boston and Christiane gave me passes to a couple of the Boston museums. I felt sad when I had to leave on Friday, however I will be returning to Boston and I hope to stay at Christiane's place again.
