Right on Davis Square with parking, new bathrooms, new kitchen that is well stocked. Everything is spotless. Christina couldn't have been more helpful. Terrific and convenient.

I don't want to share the secret diamond in the rough that is the Bowers House, but I feel, for Christina, I should. This place is wonderful. It's small and personal, and very cozy. Christina, the owner, sat with my husband and I while we had our morning coffee and we learned about how the B&B came to be, her... More

I was extremely pleased with this B&B. The location was very convenient and still quiet, the room and kitchen were spotless, the bed was very comfortable, and the wifi was free and worked! Those in themselves would have been enough to make it a great choice, but Christina went out of her way to be helpful and couldn't have been... More

My sister and I went on a little road trip to Boston. On our first two nights we stayed at a 4 star hotel, where we paid $70 extra to park and $30 extra for WiFi and the water in our room was $5 a bottle. Our second two nights we stayed at "Bowers House Bed and Breakfast" in Somerville... More

Christina was such a warm and accommodating host, she really went out of her way to make sure that we were comfortable and had everything we needed to enjoy our stay. Our room with private bath across the hall was very comfortable and nicely decorated. We slept well in the comfy king bed. We enjoyed the flexibility of the serve-yourself... More

Christina is a wonderful innkeeper and very hospitable. My daughter who is relocating to Boston and I spent 3 nights. Our first day, Christina walked us up to Davis Square to point out places that may be of interest to us. Our room and bath were spotless. Neither of us desire a hot breakfast so the items provided were fine.... More

Christina and Steven are wonderful hosts with a great location! Just a block from Davis Square, which has lots of shops, restaurants, and a small movie theater. Easy 4-block walk to the T, and Harvard University (in Cambridge) is just 2 stops away. We purchased the 7 day T pass for $15 and used it to get all over Boston.... More

An excellent B&B in the heart of Davis Square. Within minutes of the T and all the wonderful restaurants and shops that make Davis Sq. such a charming locale. The house is beautifully renovated, the kitchen is always open and very well stocked, the rooms are immaculate, and best of all, the hostess, Christina Li, is by far the warmest... More

This B&B is located on a side street which is really quiet for a city street. It's within 1 minute of the main street which is loaded with stores and restaurants. It's also close to the T which makes it convenient for touring Boston. The room was modern, extremely clean and comfortable. I must admit, I love B&B's for their... More
