The view is amazing! We were very pleased with the cleanliness, comfort, and size of the room. The bed was very comfortable -- neither too hard nor too soft. The location is outstanding. We brought our bikes with the intent of biking all over Boston. Penny knew that and she left us bike maps and brochures that were super helpful.
We walked to Tres Gatos and had one of the best meals we've ever enjoyed, anywhere (and we come from a foodie city with a very strong restaurant scene). We had some unexpected issues come up that required us to cut our visit short, but we hope to return to Boston and will definitely stay at Penny's house again.
