We never did get to meet Johnathan as our plane was delayed by an hour and he had plans that evening. Instead we were greeted by Celia, the owner, who is very hospitable and knowledgeable about both the neighborhood and Boston sights and gave us some excellent recommendations.
We stayed in what was described as the penthouse suite. The room was well maintained, spotless clean and well decorated. It has its own modern shower and toilet.
The suite has one room with a sitting area and an alcove where the bed is.
We feel describing this as a converted attic better describes the space. The ceiling height goes from about 2 feet on one side to maybe 8 on the other, consequently about 2/3 of the room is barely accessible to someone 6" tall. Also, 170 square feet is a VERY small room, about half of a kid's bedroom. We felt uncomfortable there and would not book again. Getting out of bed with 4 feet ceiling height in the middle of the night will test your ability for contortion if you are the one sleeping on the far side.
