We have stayed at this delightful B&B a couple of times a year for the last couple of years whenever we come to visit family who live nearby. It is such a lovely place to stay! The host has thought of every detail. Very comfortable beds and quiet rooms. Sharing a bathroom has never been an issue. The breakfast is... More

This place was so great it finally got me to sign up for TripAdvisor. I stayed here one night because my inlaws were coming to town and I live in a very small apartment nearby. So basically I just needed a bed. It was perfect for that, but would be great for so much more. The attention to detail for... More

We loved staying in Sarah's clean and whimsical home for 4 nights....Our third floor room was cozy and clean, and it was just fine having the bathroom across the hall (didn't ever seem to run into anyone). The shower is great, and Sarah has loads of shampoos, soaps, toothbrushes, toothpaste, tissues, Qtips, extra towels, or anything else one may have... More

The house is set back from the road and has a very leafy, garden feeling. The serve-yourself breakfast was good - with many teas to choose from, and fresh brewed coffee. The bathroom was stocked with everything you might need or have forgotten - toothbrushes, tissues, cotton swabs etc. The host is helpful and friendly, but not intrusive. We would... More

Nice, clean and affordable. You feel at home included the freedom of being on your own if you want to even though Sarah is a wonderful host...if you get to know her! She cares a lot about details and you are going to find everything you need there and more! I highly recommend this place. More

I seem to manage to get to Boston each year lately and I always stay at this B & B - it's clean and the beds are supremely comfortable and the owner, Sarah, is so welcoming and helpful. There is now a bathroom on the third floor which means that you only ever share a bathroom with one other room.... More

I have been staying here for six or so years. My four little grandkids live in Cambridge and Boston, and I make this my base for visits. It is charming, old-fashioned, immaculate and very comfortable and comforting. Sarah is delightful, a great breakfast companion if you want one, and generous and friendly and helpful. I live in a rural place,... More

There's free Wi-Fi which is fast and easy to connect to. Its in walking distance to both Harvard and Central Square but very... More
