Wonderful stay
I stayed a couple of days at the Davies inn and then moved to the Morrison . It was a wonderful stay . The area is peaceful and a block away from the T that will bring you in central in less than 30 min. The place is very calm and has a homy feel . I had breakfast everyday with perfect strangers and had the most pleasant conversations that I will remember . If I ever come back to Boston I will stay there again

A homely, beautiful, warm, clean and very comfortable place to stay. Ask for a parking pass. Overall an awesome place to stay
dpinder, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Very charming!
This is a charming B&B located in the heart of Davis Square. The service is excellent! There is home made quick bread (e.g., banana) every morning for breakfast, plus a full array of other breakfast items. French press coffee. Because it's an historic home, the bedrooms are of different sizes. No lift, but the manager kindly carried my suitcase upstairs. There are games and books. I would stay again.

A great find, very cozy, but not chintzy at all. Rooms comfortable, very quiet neighborhood, parking available, very close to the T, nice walkable, downtown, easy to get to, nice breakfast, helpful but unintrusive hosts, and an adorable cat!

Morrison House was a lovely place to stay, super convenient to Davis Square and the T. The cat was adorable too!

Quiet, convenient
Great, quiet experience. Loved the housecat (who is not allowed in rooms due to allergy concerns). Really liked Davis Square nearby.

Easy to get to city centre and delicious breskfast
It was a great place to stay but disappointed with the welcome and the “housekeeping” which only entailed emptying the bins.

Cute place; very clean. I liked the French press coffee set up in the morning.

I can’t think of a better or more accommodating place to stay for my first Boston Marathon. It’s relaxing. The breakfast was amazing. The area is lovely. The subway is about 200 ft away. Highly recommended!

A great area in quaint Somerville. Clean, safe and lots of restaurants/coffee shops along with a famous cinema in the neighborhood. Near the Red Line Davis Square subway stop which is only three stops away from Harvard University and MIT.
John, 4-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

We stayed here for a long weekend. It was a short walk to the subway. The owners were helpful in providing information. The property is super cute and a comfortable stay. Somerville is nice area with plenty of food options and obviously quick subway/train stops away from tons of places. I would absolutely choose to stay here again over other options.

I liked the historical nature of the property. The hosts are gracious! Breakfast was delicious! My only suggestion might be stools to get into high beds. Thank you!

Feel like a home and not a hotel
We stayed in Davis room for two nights when we sent my son back to college. Feel like a home and not a hotel!! Nice and clean. Lovely food and fresh fruits for breakfast. Excellent service! Best location, near the Red Line Davis Square subway stop which is only two stops away from Harvard University. Will definitely come back when we are in Boston area. Highly recommended!
