Lori's yellow room was a great place to relax after spending my days exploring Boston! There was a desk, which was great, because I was able to have a work meeting there even though I wasn't expecting to need it. I recommend this stay if you don't mind sharing common spaces with others--I didn't interact with the other guests, and my room locked with a key (which I really appreciated), but Lori does live here and you may encounter other people in passing, so respecting the house rules is pretty important. Lori herself is very kind and friendly, and she offered me fresh coffee multiple mornings! I loved the neighborhood her house was in and the proximity to the orange line was great as well.
