This was our second year in a row staying at Richard's place for Boston Marathon weekend, and we had another wonderful stay. The North End location is perfect--so many great restaurants, bakeries, and historic sites within a short walk. Having a green line subway stop close by also made it a breeze to get to the bus to Hopkinton (and around the city in general). The place is clean and cozy, particularly with the fireplace after a cold and rainy race (in 2018). Only minor note is that it is located just off of Haymarket Square, which makes it convenient, but also creates a little traffic noise. We would definitely stay here again and recommend to others. Thanks!
