It was a lovely antique inn and I really liked it! The floors creaked when I walked and the shower was a little weak, but I enjoyed that as well. I'd like to stay here again when I come to Boston. The only thing I was disappointed about was that the drinking water and tea bags ran out in the middle of the night.
