The room was located on the third floor and could be accessed by staircase . I only mention this because if you have any physical limitations this may not be the place for you. the building itself is very beautiful and I enjoyed walking the spiral staircase every day . it is located in a great area and it was easy to walk anywhere we wanted to go. the hosts got back to very promptly when I had a question. there is no parking here so if you rented a car ( which you won't need if staying in the city) then account for having to park in a garage. the room had beautiful hard wood floors and an updated bathroom. The room itself is small so if you are expected a huge space you will be in for a surprise. I highly recommend this room if you are coming to the Boston area. It made my trip so easy because of the location. there is a cool little bar called the red hat within a min walk which makes it a nice place to cap the night off and you don't have to go far at the end of the night
