Joans Bed & Breakfast

My boyfriend and I had a trip planned to the Boston area for his birthday this year. What we thought to be a good idea of just finding a place to stay when we arrived in town, turned out to be the exact opposite. Every single hotel was fully booked in the city.
We anxiously called places in the surrounding areas to find a place to sleep for the night /​/​after about 30 no’s we found Joan’s Bed and Breakfast and called– thank god we did!!! She had a room waiting for us!
Having never stayed in a B&B before, we were unsure of what to expect. Upon arrival, we were greeted by one of the sweetest women we have ever had the pleasure to meet! She was so welcoming, so accommodating, and her place was ‘home’. It is immaculately clean, well loved, and exactly what we needed! The breakfast was phenomenal/​/​everything Joan made was the comfort food grandmas are always best at. YUMMY!!! I should also add that she asked about food allergies and preferences the night we arrived– which I thought was very kind of her to do!
She gave us the lay of the land as well, and that made the next days adventures quite productive! All in all I can’t say enough wonderful things about our experience in her home. I loved being a part of her guest book and putting my sticker on the map to show where her travelers have visited from! Joan, we wish you all the best!

I stayed at Joan’s for a mid-​week stay when my mom was in the hospital and I was under a lot of stress. I could not have made a better choice!
From the moment we first spoke, when I made my reservation, I felt the warmth and caring that Joan exhibited throughout my stay. I had a twin-​bedded room with a shared bath; everything was immaculately clean and there were even teddy bears on the beds. Her breakfasts were superb-​fluffy omelets, home-​baked banana bread or muffins. Every evening, she took my request for the next morning’s breakfast. She makes her own jams, too. It was nice to come «home» in the evening and have a friendly face to talk to.
Joan obviously has a passion for running her establishment, for sharing her home with her guests. I would definitely stay again!
