AT LEAST IT WAS CHEAP...
We planned to stay here for the weekend while shopping for apartments in the Brookline area. When making arrangements, I specified that we were taking a red eye and were arriving early Friday morning. When we got there Friday morning, there were a number of envelopes (with what I'm assuming were keys to various rooms available). None with our names on them, however. We called to see if we could get a room (granted, it was 6:30, so I'm sure I pissed somebody off), we were told nothing would be available until 9am. Fair enough.
When we came back at 9, we were told our room would not be available, but they were able to put us in another room while we grabbed a few hours of shut eye. We got a sizeable room with a tiny private shower (and a shower head that sandblasted us awake).
All in all, the place itself was ok, but service was lacking. The inn keeper wasn't the most engaging individual and the night manager was less than friendly.
Location was perfect for where we wanted to be, but I'd recommend looking elsewhere before checking this place out.

Cheaper alternative to the Best Western Inn at Longwood. It is located a couple of blocks further away from the medical area though, so it's not as convenient. It does put it only a couple blocks away from Coolidge Corner which is a great place to catch dinner. Unless you get the one private room, you'll have to share a bathroom. There's a common kitchen for everyone's use which is pretty clean. This is a 3 story Victorian house that's converted to a hotel. There is only someone there certain hours of the week, otherwise, you pick up and drop off your keys on your own. The front door is kept unlocked, but it's a pretty safe neighborhood.
