Irene has a lovely home. The room is as advertised, spacious, clean and filled with windows and a retractable skylight. It has a desk and good closets and a bureau for clothes. The deck is large and filled with lovely flowering plants and is a great place for a morning coffee or to read a book. Irene was there to welcome me and is a gracious, warm host. Its very convenient to Harvard and Porter Square. I highly recommend a stay and would come back if I am in Boston.
