The Morrison House

Although the owners of the Morrison House seem to be a little shy around their guests (maybe not a bad thing at a B and B) the setup they provide is absolutely wonderful and I would definitely stay here again. We booked a room for 4 nights to go college-​visiting in Boston and got a big, comfortable room with a king bed and two intriguingly-​designed pullout wallbed singles. This was perfect for our family.
The house is really spotless – most clean bathrooms I have ever experienced in any kind of hotel setting. The parking is very convenient, the B and B is steps from the Davis Square T and the excellent restaurants on Elm Street, and the breakfast is as advertised, basically a continental breakfast but with eggs provided. Everything is thoughtfully laid out, and there are even extra umbrellas by the front door, which, being from a non-​wet climate, we really appreciated.
Coming from a house with two cats, I can say confidently that the house doesn’t smell like cat, cat pee, cat litter, or anything else untoward. I really liked having Sebastian the cat around to remind me of home.

A great, affordable place to stay near Boston. Rooms (and beds) are comfortable with a homey New England atmosphere. The breakfasts are communal with plenty of interesting people from around the country/​world, good conversation, and excellent baked goods! We have stayed at the Morrison House several times over the last few years, and always find Ron and Linde to be welcoming, helpful and attentive. Highly recommended.

I stayed for three nights. It was my first time staying by myself while traveling in the US. I had a wonderful time — I thought that the lock system that does not require keys was very clever (I don’t know if I can mention it in detail, so I will keep my description this way) — it allows the guests to enter whenever they want. I flew in late to Boston so I entered the house really late, but there was no problem!
At the Morrison House, I stayed at the Little Room — it was very cozy and cute, perfect size for a young girl like myself. The bed was nice and I slept very well. It was also nice to have a heating system that I can adjust perfectly. I shared a bathroom with the guests in the Davis Room, which was no problem because I shower at night and no one else did. The bathroom was kept very clean and, also very cute.
I also liked how the guests have chance to meet each other when they all come down for breakfast between 8 – 9 am. Since I mostly get to talk with people of my age back in school, it was a refreshing feeling to get to know older couples, etc.
The Morrison House is in a perfect little college town too. I got to enjoy some great foods, including the hamburger shop that was introduced in Diners, Drive-​ins and Dives, one of my favorite TV show! :D
The fee was also reasonable, so I would like to give Morrison House a five-​star! I would definitely come back if there is an occasion.

Morrison house has powerful, hot showers, spacious rooms with comfortable beds, and delicious breakfasts. The hosts are attentive and ready to help out, and the rooms are clean and stocked with towels and (very soft) robes. Sebastian the cat is welcoming and happy to follow you around to be rubbed or scratched behind the ears!
Just a minute or two’s walk from the Davis subway station and bus stop, the centre of Boston is accessible, without the need for a car, which can be left parked at the B&B. Davis Square’s restaurants and cafés will suit any taste (I would highly recommend the Mexican ‘The Painted Burro’), and are ideally placed to provide an evening meal after a day in the city.

I recently stayed at this lovely BandB two weeks ago. Ron and Linde were so lovely and accommodating and their new staff member Maria was so lovely as well. I stayed in the B and B during an impending blizzard and the staff was so concerned and cared so much for their guests it was really lovely.
My room was clean and nicely decorated and the breakfast was delicious. I felt right at home and am so thankful for the great experience!

I heartily recommend this place. Very charming, and the owners are knowledgeable about 2 of Boston’s biggest «industries,» tech and early music. Bathrooms are spacious and clean, and sound doesn’t carry between the rooms. There’s a lovely back yard, and ample parking (v. important in Boston). Steps from the subway. Two thumbs up.
Oh, I forgot to mention: their cat, Sebastian, is very friendly and wants you to enjoy your stay. If you’re feeling down, he may follow you up to your room so you can scratch him behind the ears and rub his tummy.
