This is our second time staying at the Newbury Guest House and again, we were quite pleased with our stay, though it was too short. Our room was simple, well appointed and clean; the bath has been updated and well maintained. What we like most about the Newbury Guest house is the very friendly and welcoming staff, from those at the front desk to those sweeping the carpets or changing the rooms. It is a small and intimate place where guests gather in the living room to enjoy a drink, read, chat or play chess. Overall, there is a great vibe in this warm, traditional space which is hard to replicate elsewhere.

The hotel is in a great location, right on Newbury St, almost right in the middle, walking-wise, of the Common one way and Fenway the other (about 15-minutes to either). The room was comfortable, and the place has that 'old but nice' vibe that is appealing. The only downside was that the shower had a clump of hair from the previous guest in the corner, which brings up the question of whether it was cleaned at all. Sometimes things get missed, and the rest of the bathroom and room seemed clean, but I can certainly say the Newbury staff was lucky it was just me in town and my wife was not with me.
