I was very unsure which area to stay in, but I'm so happy I chose CCB because the location is absolutely perfect. Back Bay is very nice and safe. You even have a wonderful park just outside the doorstep to walk around, and the lovely Boston Commons only two blocks away. Check-in/out was one of the most seamless experiences I've had with hotels/airbnbs. I didn't have to check in with anyone, and I received the door code a few days before. They have a lovely dining room for guests with homemade cookies, fruit, coffee and tea. Unfortunately I didn't take advantage of the breakfast, but I'm sure it's great too. CCB is really the perfect mix of a hotel and bed/breakfast. I was unsure about doing the solo room with a shared bathroom, but other than having to wait for the other guest to finish his shower so I could take an urgent bio break, it was no issue at all and I would hands down do it again. I'm pretty sure the other floors have a bathroom if you absolutely need it though. For the location, price, comfort, and amenities, College Club of Boston is a no brainer. I got the please to quickly meet the GM on my way out, and she is super sweet. I even left my airpods in the room, and without hesitation they are shipping them back to me. 5 starts forsure.

The venue itself was breathtakingly beautiful, clean, and presentable. We requested a charcuterie board, champagne, and fruit platter, and it was stunningly displayed and high quality.

It's easy to get to (right near Coolidge Corner), and easy to check in (even if you're after hours). They have breakfast for you every morning, and you can either eat in your room or eat at the big dining table downstairs. Downstairs is a great opportunity to chat with the other people that are staying at the BTI. I would recommend trying to get a room with your own bathroom to prevent the awkward walking through the halls in a towel moments with strangers. My favorite part about BTI was the freshly baked cookies and snacks they had every afternoon. It was like coming back to a home with all the great smells of food cooking and people happy to see you. The staff here was wonderful - so friendly, helpful and accommodating. They didn't mind that I hung out with my parents at the Inn and even ate some of their food. Another plus is the VHS library they have. They have tons of movies you can watch for free, and they have tons of guidebooks for those visiting and unfamiliar with Boston. Tell all your friends and family to stay at the Beech Tree Inn.

It was significantly cheaper than the Best Western by the medical school, and much, much nicer. What could be better? It is very nicely decorated and clean. The breakfast was an excellent continental breakfast that included home-baked sweets and plenty of healthy options. When returning in the evening, I often had tea and a freshly baked cookie or brownie. It's close to Coolidge Corner, which has plenty of places to eat out. It's near the T. The wifi was free and fast. I was delighted to stay at the Beech Tree Inn, and highly recommend it.

My husband had a recent injury limiting his mobility, but it was very easy for him to walk from our car parked in their lot and up to our room. Check-in was a breeze. Rachele B. at the front desk greeted us warmly with her winning smile. She was efficient, kind, and covered all the essentials. She is one of a dwindling group of people who know how to do their job well and take pride in doing it well. She takes ownership, treats guests as though they had selected her hotel, and she does her best to try to make them happy and comfortable. I wish every hotel had a Rachele or a Rachele in charge of training.

My shower had some sort of residue on the handle, there was an open safety pin on the floor that I nearly stepped on. I mean, it's not the worst but it needs some attention. In addition, there were sooo many kids in this hotel - what's going on with the kids?! They were in the halls, I could hear them running up and down, some were sitting in the hall outside my door, reading books. I think there were a lot of people living there, maybe a weird timing thing. ‍

The place is just as cozy and warm as the website says it is. Our bedroom was awesome and I slept great. The common rooms are really cool, especially the Great Room with its pool table and dimly lit interior, like something out of a film noir. The breakfast was just right although Heidi burnt our croissants, but she promised to make us a double if we came back. There is a yard with a mini-forest with fruit trees and wut-not and the best part, a hammock! Service, in the form of Heidi, was perfect. Good information, good food, good rooms. A+!

Clarendon Square is well-appointed, but not fussy. The furnishings are modern, and the dress code…read moreis somewhere between 'shabby chic' and casual. No one batted an eye at my partner's Looney Tunes t-shirt and shorts. I was better dressed (...definitely the Odd Couple), and we were both made to feel welcome. The cocktails were made well, and the table service was at a good pace--not rushed, but not dragged-on unnecessarily. The food was also quite good. The portions were right-sized, which was appreciated since our B&B did not have a refrigerator in the room. Though I no longer remember what we had (...probably lamb for me and Bolognese for my partner), I do remember that it was a good representation of the advertised dish--not some high concept, deconstructed bullsh*t. The desert martinis were more memorable than whatever cake we chose, but--again--I can't remember the desert being bad, just forgettable. The price was comparable to restaurants in the surrounding area, and the staff were 'easy on the eyes', so we'll be back the next time we're up that way.

Everything reasonable was really far outside of Boston, but then we stumbled across Anthony's Townhouse online. It is right in the heart of everything. You are extremely close to all the sights and restaurants. All of their rooms are extremely spacious with very big closets. Each one has its own unique decor. The whole place is extremely clean and housekeeping comes every morning. There is a fridge, microwave and bathroom on each floor. The owners are the most helpful people ever! They helped us find parking, get our T passes and even went through the map with us. There is a T stop right outside their house so you can take it everywhere downtown! I loved not having to take the truck anywhere. There are a few restaurants right across the street. There is also a whole foods. You cannot beat the price and location!! We will definitely be coming back to stay again.

It is in the historic neighborhood of Coolidge Corner and Brookline. Although it's not central to all the sightseeing locations or restaurants, it's in a peaceful neighborhood that's quiet and great to come back to after a long day.

The staff is very friendly, attentive to concerns. There is free parking in the front as well!
