    I enjoyed my stay at Morgan's Rest very much and will hopefully return in the future. It was like visiting friends and was very comfortable. The room was small but cozy, the breakfasts delicious, and the hospitality first-rate.

    Peace and Pleasure with added Privacy

    My husband and I stayed at Morgan's rest in October of 2012 (I'm a little late writing my review, Lol) and we will surely make it a point to go back in the future. We stayed two nights in a wonderful room with a skylight and pool table ( I can't remember the name right at this moment). The bed was so comfortable I didn't want to get up in the mornings :) Alexandra, the hostess, was such a pleasure to talk to. She gave us good tips about things to do and places to eat, and gave some history about Morgan's rest and their ownership. It was easy to get lost in our conversations with her as well as the other guests. Though Alix was very hospitable, she also made it a point to leave us to our privacy. The home was quiet, peaceful, with the aromas of her most excellent cooking skills! Breakfasts are served buffet style so there's no hurry or rush to get up at any certain time. All in all, Morgan's Rest gets five stars from us!!!!

    Quaint and Fun

    February 15, 2013

    Loved it! We stayed in the 'pool room' and played billiards late into the night. So neat! Room was large and comfortable with eclectic antiquey decor. Such a great value for the Boston area! The owner, Alex, was very accommodating and even provided a crib for our infant that she said she had slept in as a child!

    Great stay!

    January 27, 2013

    We had a great time for a winter weekend at Morgan's Rest. Staying in the Pool Room, we were surprised at how large the room was, and the thought taken to set it up. A large pool table, wi-fi, king sized bed, flat screen TV, full bath, seating area were all within our room, with a fridge, microwave shared by any other guests. We were the only guests that weekend, and were treated to great breakfasts both days. Our hostess was perfect - a life long area resident, she knew what was what and was very helpful. Definitely a great place to stay!

    We will definitely return!

    We stayed at Morgan’s Rest for four days over the Thanksgiving holiday. We believe the first time you stay at Morgan's Rest, it's for the room ... the next time, it's for visiting the friendliest innkeepers you'll ever stay with. Oh, and the breakfast is a good draw too ... We will definitely return!

    Quiet, tree-lined street. Walking distance to public transportation. Fine dining establishments close-by.

    A great place to stay

    October 18, 2012

    These are honest ratings. I thought each one over carefully and cannot find any basis to downgrade Morgan's Rest on anything. The host and hostess were friendly, and got up extra early to fix breakfast for me -- above and beyond. The cost is perfectly reasonable, good restaurants are a short drive away, and the room was considerably bigger than it appears on their website. Most of all, I had an absolutely great night's sleep, which is highly unusual for me, since I don't often sleep well. I would stay at Morgan's Rest again anytime, and recommend it to any and all who needs a quiet place not far from the Alewife T station.
