The Coolidge Corner Guest House is a great place to stay if you are visiting Boston. It is one block off Brookline which has the "T" metro line that runs every fifteen minutes. The fare is waived if you are running the Boston Marathon. I really enjoyed the way the people in Boston treated the Marathoners, it is like nowhere else in the world. I hope I get an opportunity to run the Marathon again.

Cute place for a short stay
I had to cancel and rebook a hotel room after my surgery at MGB got delayed and this was the best rate and they had one room left, so I snagged it. The check in was easy, the communication with the owner was good, I unfortunately ended up having to stay overnight at the hospital, but I was glad my husband had somewhere to rest while he waiting for me. He did say it was pretty loud at night, very thin walls.

The rooms need to be freshened up. Kitchen area very tiny with everyone trying to prepare their bagels, tea and coffee at the same time. Tip, get to the kitchen before 7:15 to avoid the rush. Location is good. Easy walk to the green line

Overall the house was very comfortable and our room was nice. It's located in a quiet neighborhood within walking distance from the Green line, a Trader Joe's, and plenty of restaurants and shops. Our only issue was with the creaking floors and stairs. The home is a beautiful old Victorian that's been lovingly kept up, but the stairs and floors desperately need to be fixed. That being said the house was clean and well furnished, the bed was very comfortable, the staff friendly, and we were very happy with our stay.

Lots of character! It is an old squeaky place but it has charm and a social environment. I would stay there again.

Nice location and the exterior of the home is very nice bu it has seen better days once you get inside and the bed in room 17 where I stayed was terrible. I did not get any sleep and I had to lead a workshop the next day. Not recommended if you have anything important to do the next day.

Cozy BnB. You get the charm of a vintage home. Staff is amazing. All is super clean. Be mindful that you can hear others in the house. The biggest problem was my room, #16, which is adjacent to a bathroom for two other rooms. When the guests were respectful and quiet, at there’s nothing quiet about a 3:30am toilet flush. Don’t get room 16! No desk space, so no working in the room. The bathroom mirror was so high up, I couldn’t use it to put in makeup (I’m 5’4”.) There was a larger mirror in the main room, but with the light overhead, it doesn’t work for applying makeup. There’s a neighborhood “Main Street “ nearby to grab food, Trader Joe’s, hair salons, etc. very good location. Safe, quaint neighborhood. 4/5

Nice little place to stay!
Coolidge Corner guest house is a lovely, convenient place to stay when in the Boston area. It’s convenient to shops, restaurants, grocery store, parks, and transit. It’s not a hotel in the conventional sense and it’s a little different than a typical B&B, but it’s clean, convenient, there’s a nice breakfast, and the staff are all lovely. I’ll take that!

This stately Victorian “Bed and Bagle” was perfect for our overnight stay for a concert at Fenway. It’s a 1.3 mile walk from the venue, easy enough to walk as we couldn’t get a taxi. The route was well lite and safe. We had a private room and bathroom. The bed was comfortable. We also enjoyed a glass of wine in the sitting room. I’d definitely stay here again. The self serve breakfast included bagels, hard boiled eggs, yogurt, oatmeal, fruit, breakfast bars with coffee, tea and juice.
