Beacon Inn 1750

The location is convenient for getting around Brookline, but guests should be warned about the many stairs in the building. Getting to the top floor rooms is not for the faint of heart. And, at least in the winter, the room I was given was quite cold. When I asked about heat, I was told I had the warmest room in the house and that I should keep the heat in by closing the blinds and curtains.

The property is only 19 rooms in a 3 floor walkup. The building is old and although my room was clean, the conditiona are a bit shabby. The front desk person was capable and nice enough.

Very convenient place to stay. Reminded me of a rooming house...older property with some charm but for most people who are looking for a modern facility, this is not it. If the property's price is a primary factor, go for it. Everything was in working order and was clean and neat. Cute light breakfast left at reception. Heat during the early evening but not overnight and you can't control heat in room. Ask about air conditioning...I didn't see it. Again, you get a room, comfortable bed, bathroom and everything is clean. But not for me. Sorry.

We had a late check-in, well after the staff had left, but the thoroughness with which they anticipated my needs was above and beyond. Alternative ways to get the keys, instructions on how to use the property, and the continental breakfast were furnished. The room was clean and beautiful, and the beds were extremely comfortable.

Ok-ish It was overall ok, however there were few issues. The first day the cleaning staff left our room open, I assume they forgot, but our belongings were left exposed, not nice. The second day they didn’t make up the room, maybe we woke up too late and the cleaning staff had already left (we left the room around 10:45), they changed the towels though. The mattresses were old and deformed, quite uncomfortable.

I hang "Do not disturb" sign, but each day someone enter the room just take a trah and go. I think they do not know the sign meaning

Room comfortable and clean. Love the location and parking on site. Would certainly stay there again.
