Simple/nice room in a brownstone, easy to get to and Lihua was great--very communicative & responsive, flexible w/check in/out details, reached out ahead of time by text to make sure we were aligned w/check in.
I don't know Boston well enough to compare this location w/others, but it was quiet & nice, near Boston U, felt very safe, a few places nearby to eat/etc. To get to the more central and downtown areas was a good 15-20 minute walk or a few minutes by car, but the general area was still nice.
The room itself was just as advertised, had strong wifi, a tv, shared bathroom on the floor but it was nice and clean.
For a reasonable extra fee, there is also a parking space, which is cheaper/more convenient than finding a garage or risking tickets with street parking.
In the morning there was a nice breakfast spread--croissants/toast/jam/cereal/fruit/coffee/tea.
All in all, a good place to stay, fair price, very nice host, & next trip to Boston I'd definitely consider coming back.
