tripadvisorI was visiting Boston, where I had lived for a long time. My preference was for a B&B, convenient to punlic transportation and amenities. My stay was peaceful and comfortable. On arriving, I met Ron, one of the couple who live on site and run the business. My room was very comfortable and well laid out. The cat is extremely sweet. Breakfast was good, sufficient. I liked that I got to make my own coffee fresh using a hot water tap and a French Press. The owners are present, but inconspicuous. To cap it off, I saw a book on the shelf in the living room that prompted me to order it for my Kindle! Morrison House is my kind of B&B.
MoreWe had a nice stay here, where everything was fine though not amazing. The room was good but not great, the breakfast was adequate but not special (though they were kind enough to make sure there was something vegan and plant milk), Lydia the cat did her thing as cats do, and the other guests (European) were friendly, though the email exchange with the proprietor was somewhat cold.
MoreGenerally enjoyed our stay here, although the place has a few quirks. The location is great (quiet neighborhood, 5 min walk to the T and Davis Sq) and we enjoyed the outdoor seating areas. Breakfast was fairly basic but did the job. We hardly saw the hosts, and it didn't seem to be the kind of B&B where you receive a personal welcome or make lots of small talk with the owners. It seemed to be easier to reach them via email (which was answered promptly) than to find them in person.The bed was comfortable and we enjoyed being able to open the windows for fresh air. Internet worked well and we enjoyed meeting the resident cat. Our room was fairly tidy but despite the b&b being described as ultra-clean we found long hairs on the shower wall and a dried up cookie on the carpet by the nightstand. Not deal breakers, but the room could've been cleaned better. The website could also be updated to show more current images and room descriptions. For example. there was no antique secretary in our room, just a basic desk, and less floor space than depicted in the photos due to other furniture now being in the room (larger chair, fridge, etc). The closet now had a curtain rather than a door. We heard quite a bit of noise from the neighboring room (talking, coughing, child crying) but guess that is to be expected in a house. Overall, a convenient and comfortable place to stay, but could use a little freshening up and may not be to everyone's taste.
MoreWe booked easily over the phone We were greeted by owner when we arrived They have a vaccination Covid 19 policy which we appreciated We booked the king size bedroom downstairs and it was very clean quiet and comfortable Breakfast was basic and many choices Owner seemed interested to make sure all questions were answered about the area We walked to dinner It is in a safe neighborhood
MoreAwesome B&B! Comfortable, relaxing, clean, great location! Hosts are very accommodating. I used public transportation to get around and the station was only a 2 minute walk away. There are plenty of places to eat; also just a couple minute walk!
