Coolidge Corner South Side

4.5/5(47 area reviews)

Centered around Beacon and Harvard Streets, this Brookline neighborhood boasts a pedestrian-friendly atmosphere, diverse dining options like crêperies and falafel joints, and cultural gems such as the Art Deco Coolidge Corner Theatre. Easily accessible via the Green Line C branch and #66 bus route.

Coolidge Corner South Side
Don’t tell the locals, but this is my secret FREE PARKING place for Fenway Park for their 7 pm games or Sunday all day.  It’s 2 hour parking until 8 pm so technically you shouldn’t arrive earlier than 6:00
PM, but I arrived at 5:30 ish and nary a ticket officer to see.  Saved $40-$50 on parking in an overcrowded lot and traded hassling with ticket vouchers and crowds for an enjoyable and easy and most important safe walk.   You just have to be out by 2:00 am.

Longwood

4.5/5(26 area reviews)

While you're strolling through Longwood, you may want to check out the coffeehouses and architecture. If you want to see more of the area, hop on the metro at Longwood Station or Hawes St. Station.

"Easy to find and access. Room was clean and tastefully decorated. Bed was comfortable. Only negative is because it’s an older building it has beautiful original wood floors that cream when you walk around. I was woken up several times thru the night from other guests walking on creaky floors."

Night manager was kind and helpful and apologized about the garbage and dirty room and gave us a new room right away. Morning manager seemed annoyed with us when the gate in the car garage was broken, we sat there for about 10 minutes.

ANGELICA

For the price they charge they should remodel that whole buliding and out the pool back. Don't advertise you have a pool and it's not there! And why charge the guests who stay at your hotel a parking fee. plus their extra facility fee..rip off
