Fodor's Review:

If you prefer quiet and old-fashioned, you'll feel right at home in this historic, antiques-laden inn, within walking distance to lively Cleveland Circle. Built in 1907 as a wedding present for a wealthy Boston merchant's daughter, the Victorian-style building retains some original elements, like wood floors, paneled walls, and marble fireplaces. Each room is unique; one has hummingbird wallpaper, another a high canopy bed with steps. The room off the large living room is a favorite, with a four-poster bed, Oriental rug, cherry paneling, and working fireplace. Mix and match your favorite features. Some rooms have ultradeluxe (and superexpensive) Duxiana mattresses; some have workstations. Pros: fresh fruit, pastries, snacks, and drinks are available all day; large living room with fireplace and leather couches and porch with wicker cushioned rockers are nice places to relax. Cons: dust balls in the corners and ashes in the fireplaces, it's a walk and a T ride to downtown Boston.
