    We loved our stay and the Beechtree Inn. I am also an inn owner and I got great ideas from our hostesses. They provide non-stop snacks morning and night. The breakfast was delicious and adventurous with great coffee, baked goods, granola and great company. Walking at night in the neighborhood felt very safe with lots of restaurants nearby that were fun to visit. I will always use Beechtree Inn as my Boston home away from home.

    Want to visit again soon!

    The beech tree inn is the first bed and breakfast we've ever been to, and every other B&B we visit will be measured against it. It made me think of my childhood home in Cleveland. My daughter and I got lost twice and one of the staff helped us find our way back both times. The coffee was so good, not to mention the freshly baked goods and breakfast. Truly a wonderful place!

    Excellent value for money

    My wife and I stayed in the Beech Tree for 3 nights during October 2010. The place is very clean and located in a comfortable, quite place not far from shops and restaurants. The staff is very friendly and efficient. Cakes, coffee and assortment of cakes is available at all time. Highly recommended! Y. & S. Yom-Yov Israel

    Rooms are very pretty and clean. Breakfast was okay, nothing outstanding. Borownies, cookies and muffins availables through out afternoon and evening which is very pleasant. Innkeeper was absent most of the time, we could have used a little more presence to give us advice on where to eat, where to shop, etc. Overall a nice pace to stay !

    ch habe kurz hintereinander in zwei der völlig unterschiedlichen Zimmer des Beetree Inns übernachtet. Nein, übernachtet ist nicht das richtige Wort - gewohnt habe ich und das ganz wunderbar gemütlich. Die Atmosphäre dieses kleinen B&B ist familiär, entspannt und persönlich. Wie viele vor mir war ich beeindruckt vom tollen Frühstück, das mitten in der Küche serviert wird. Der Duft von frisch gebackenen Muffins hat mir das Aufstehen sehr erleichtert. Das Team ist ausgesprochen freundlich und zuvorkommend. Je nach Anspruch sind die Zimmer vielleicht etwas klein, was aber in einem Haus von 1884 auch nicht anderes zu erwarten ist. Die Lage ist sehr praktisch, da nahe zur T und zu Fuß in 5 min in der Longwood Medical Area.
