Phyllis’s place is on a lovely side street in north Brighton, right by a stop for Bus 64, which will take you directly to the red line at Central Square, where you can easily access the rest of the city. There are several steep stairs that go up to the room, as the description states, so be aware if you’re toting lots of luggage. It does have a shared bathroom, but accessing it is easy; as long as the door’s open, its all yours. Phyllis does a good job of keeping it clean between guests. Breakfast is plentiful and easy to access whenever; she has a nice supply of k-cups for fresh coffee. You can even eat your breakfast in the lovely garden out back! A welcome addition to my stay was Bobby, an incredibly sweet and friendly 1-year old Bichon Frise who greeted me outside my bedroom door one morning, which made my day! Overall, it was a wonderful stay. Phyllis is great at suggesting routes to different places in the city, and for little side trips. I recommend her place!
