We booked this B &B over a standard hotel because it was within walking distance to our event, and as a previous innkeeper I know the price was very reasonable. Due to the current rating on various sites, I read every review for Bunker Hill B & B I could find.
If you are looking for a modern guest room with all the amenities, then keep searching, because this B & B may not be for you. The items that seemed to bother previous reviewers, I felt we could live with as an older couple who love antiques, appreciate a home from the 1880s and like the historical flavor of this area.
Our hostess was accommodating and full of valuable information about the Boston area. She is a wee bit eccentric and very chatty, however, her intentions are good. It felt as though we were visiting an Aunt in Boston and staying in her upstairs area, so I felt at home. The accommodations had some glitches and there are a lot of knick knacks about, but nothing we want to complain about.
We appreciated some of the beautiful antiques in the home and the charm of this extremely quaint neighborhood full of nicely kept homes and well-mannered young families. The 93 bus and a great breakfast cafe are convenient and just around the corner too.
