Ruma was wonderful. My fiance & I were in and out of her house as we were out exploring Boston. But she always had suggestions on what to do and where to eat. She allowed us to park our car & leave it in the driveway for our whole stay. Urber pool rides from her house to basically anywhere we wanted to go where about the same price or less than it would have been for the 2 of us to buy subway tickets. Ruma was very hospitable, from constantly offering us food or showing us where supplies were in order to make sack lunches if we so desired. We have a rescue dog that was abused & both Ruma & her daughters were great with her, despite our dogs antisocial & fearful personality. This was a wonderful location for sightseeing Boston & a wonderful place to stay if you are traveling with a pet.
