Good value for the money. Very large room with full kitchen. Good water pressure in shower. Great location in heart of city and across from Beacon Hill Park. Cheap parking $10 compared to most local hotels. Pleasant staff. Brewed coffee/tea, apples and filtered water available in lobby. The inn is well taken care of and clean throughout. Only negative is this is an older building and there is a musty old house smell throughout. There were windows open everywhere and that helped. Would stay again.
