Abercrombie's Farrington Inn

The Farrington is a small guest house with air conditioned private rooms and dorm beds (in season). Located right on the Green Train of the Boston Subway system, the Farrington is an economical choice in one of the most expensive cities in the world.
We rent by the night or by the week, we have a nice selection of furnished rooms. We cater to the budget minded, so please don't expect first-class accommodations, but we feel all of our units are an excellent value. We're in a great location to get around the city, two blocks from the subway, and less than a quarter mile from Exit 18 of interstate 90. If you're looking on a map, we're just west of Boston University, and six blocks north of John Kennedy's birthplace.

Boston is a city alive with historical attractions and points of interest. We have seven world-class art museums, the country's oldest naval warship, a huge aquarium, four major league sports teams, forty two colleges of higher learning, the oldest underground subway system in North America, the historic Freedom Trail, and the best seafood in the country.
