I stayed at the Samuel Sewall Inn in Brookline this week and I highly recommend it. It's a very nice B&B in the best of all possible neighborhoods. You can park your car and forget it - the T stop at Coolidge Corner is a short walk away, as is a great movie theater that shows independent & foreign films, lots of good eats, cheap and otherwise, groceries and drug stores for the things you forgot, etc. I paid a lot less for this than I would have at a cookie-cutter chain much farther out of town. Oh, and they bake their own goodies for breakfast & snacks.

Thanks for the report, MsTea. I will keep it in mind.

Since this is your only posting - it is possible this is an AD?

Certainly looks like an ad to me.

No, my post was not an AD. I liked the place. And yes, it was my first post in several years. You are free to ignore it and stay at the Holiday Inn.
