Betsy is a wonderful host! She was very helpful with suggestions during the days before I arrived and was there to greet me at the front door. She recommended a place around the corner for dinner that was perfect - close by and fantastic food and drinks. Her place is convenient to public transportation, however, I also enjoyed the walk (20 mins) to the Back Bay through the old South End neighborhood streets. Meeting Betsy felt like meeting up with an old friend; she was delightful to chat with and is a great source of local information and for sharing traveling stories. Her place is just as she describes - it is a very clean, quiet, comfortable smaller room (with a view of the Back Bay skyline) in a cozy top floor of a nicely modernized Boston brownstone. I would highly recommend staying at Betsy's when visiting Boston!
