This is a very charming small hotel close to Longwood Gardens (10 minute drive). We received a text shortly before arriving with our room and passcode to get in. The front desk was very welcoming and friendly. We reserved the honeymoon suite for the grand sum of $222/night. The room was beautiful and had a working gas fireplace, which was perfect given very low temps when we visited. There is a very full complimentary continental breakfast (waffles, pastries, bagels, cereal, yogurt, hard boiled eggs, donuts, coffee, tea and juice, etc.). The hotel is also close to a number of restaurants (some within walking distance.). We thoroughly enjoyed our stay and would stay here again if we are back this way.

Look no further. If you are in the area...STAY HERE. Everything you need for a night of a few days. Clean, convenient, great location, walkable restaurants, and priced below what I would expect to pay. I would 1000% stay here again. In fact my wife and I discussed coming back to the area to visit partly because of this great place to stay.

The hotel had a bed and breakfast feel. No crowds to fight at breakfast and the room was very clean and comfortable. The location was very convenient to Longwood Gardens.
