We were in the Parlour 1 room. The photos were absolutely accurate and the room was sparkling clean - as was the bathroom. Kathe and Lisa left thoughtful touches like big shampoo and conditioner as well as yoghurts, milk and orange juice for us- much appreciated. The only downside was that this room is right by the front door and right on the street - so there is quite a bit of street noise and people banging the front door when they come and go. This would not be the case in other rooms further back in the house. This said, the area is residential so not “party” noise at night st all.
The location is excellent- an easy 7 minute walk to Back Bay Station and about 20 mins to Boston Common. There are plenty of eateries in Tremont St and Dartmouth Rd- the Indian restaurant in Tremont street is excellent value. We enjoyed our stay and Lisa was a charming host (we did not meet Kathe). This is a great place to stay in a terrific neighbourhood in Boston.
