Marlene's place is great! Super clean and very comfortable--our bed was extra comfy! The location is quiet and there's parking, too. It's near the 66 some other buses, but otherwise it's kind of tucked away from things. The location is central, so if you're planning to have a car you'll be in great shape. Coffee, cereal, water, etc were provided. Plenty of towels, soap, and closet space. If we needed anything, Marlene was immediately available, helpful, and friendly. Definitely would recommend to anyone looking to stay in or around Brookline, Brighton, Allston, or Cambridge.
