I booked last minute and thankfully Boris & Susan had availability because there wasn't much else close to Boston for the weekend (that didn't required a second mortgage payment). I would describe my stay as similar to a hostel/hotel, however, Boris and Susan do a great job of giving it a personal touch by sharing their story and providing very detailed instructions. The rooms/bathrooms are very clean, have individual keypad locks, and included some snacks which was a friendly touch. I recommend staying here for your next trip to Boston.
