Renee's place is fantastic and I highly recommend it. The location can't be beat, and you truly feel like you're in historic Boston from the surrounds to the home itself. We were thrilled with this truly unique place. That said, the stairs are high and shallow- totally to be expected from a place of this age, but might not be suitable for elderly or frail guests. The outdoor courtyard is charming, but this being summer at least while we were there, it stank from restaurant trash. This is a busy city and off an alley so this is 100% expected and anticipated by us- but be mindful if you are renting the place for the purposes of entertaining outdoors.
