Very cozy spot located in central Boston, close to everything interesting. It has an antique feel, which you have to appreciate, and a very friendly atmosphere at a good price. Great staff, that easily accommodated special needs, without us even asking for it. The room was clean, comfortable and we slept well, just the bathroom was a little cold.|Would love to stay there again.

It was the worst hotel I've ever been to in my life. I'm so angry with myself for making me experience this. Don't waste your money and don't go to this hotel.

Traveled for 2 nights to race at a track meet close by. The inn was perfect in terms of a great place to stay near the track while also being affordable. Obviously it isn’t some super fancy hotel, I wouldn’t pay to stay here if I was looking for that. It has its flaws but it was perfect for what I was looking for. We also got upgraded when we got there to have the private bath which was great. I had my doubts going in, but it was much better than I anticipated. I also would highly recommend the private bath room as it isn’t that much more expensive and was pretty well kept.

Hostel vibes except you have the room to yourself...house is older, rooms are simple, shared bathroom, but proximity to the airport is great and the rooms were clean. I needed a last minute place to stay when it was already after midnight, and I was able to still book online for a good price. I felt safe as a solo traveler.

If you ever lived in Boston in your 20's trying your best to make it on your own, staying at the Farrington Inn is like stepping into a time machine. Shared Bathrooms, strangely shaped bedrooms, and old architecture that makes you wonder what the place was like when it first opened. This is not the place to bring your wife and kids for a weekend in the city. This is the place you stay when you want to get away for a day or 2 to see a punk show and see a side of Boston they don't tell you about on the tourist sites. Super cheap too!
