My girlfriends and I came to Boston for a sight seeing vacation. Barbara was amazingly helpful with giving information about the location of the condo and where things were located in Boston. While in Boston we visited the Freedom Trail, Fenway Park, Boston Common, Faneuil Hall, the aquarium, the Prudential Center, and many restaurants throughout Boston. We were able to walk or take the T to all of those places. The only time we took a taxi the whole time we were in Boston was to and from the airport. The location was amazing and the building was clean and quiet. We never had trouble sleeping at night due to noise and the building was always very clean. The condo itself was definitely big enough for the three of us. We are three woman that went on a trip together and we never felt like we were "bumping" into each other. All of the pictures on this website of this condo are completely accurate except for the picture with the fouton in it. The fouton has been replaced by a couch that was incredibly comfortable and pulls out into a full size bed. Our stay in Boston was wonderful thanks to Barbara and her condo. I would recommend this condo to just about anyone that wants to visit Boston and do all of the sight seeing.

The best location bar none. Everything about this condo is wonderful. My mom and I arrived on Thursday and we left Sunday and were able to experience much of what Boston has to offer because we stayed at this wonderful condo in the Back Bay. It was not only beautiful, but so easy to get around. I would highly recommend this property to anyone wanting to enjoy the beauty and history of this great city. Thanks Barbara for your help in planning and making our trip so memorable.

This was my second stay in this terrific property. Barbara and Derek are wonderful and as is evidenced in previous reviews, are keen that their tenants have a thoroughly enjoyable stay; indeed they are a pleasure to work with. The apartment itself is modern in its furnishings - the current pictures on this site do not display the more recent upgrades in furniture that are currently in the residence - it is very nicely appointed. The property is clean and one feels very safe and at home. The location is excellent and places you at the threshold of the best of what Boston has to offer - particularly by way of walking. If you are not into walking, the T stop [Green line] is around the corner. This is a terrific one-bedroom property that will serve a perfect home away from home. I recommend it highly and would welcome the opportunity to visit again.

From Steve: Everything was great-we are delayed at the airport. Left early today and went to Plymouth Plantation. I knew the location of your place was good, but I didn’t realize how good. Great access to T, jogging, Fenway, Comm Ave, Mall, and the Public Gardens. Enjoy the beer we left behind.

I highly recommend this place to stay. Barbara and Derek were extremely helpful and prompt in their responses. The place is very clean and has everything a person needs for their stay! We had treats, brochures, maps and even weather updates! I can't show my appreciation enough to Barbara and Derek. You went above and beyond to make our stay enjoyable. We were provided with nearby activities, restaurants, and places to visit. It was fantastic! We were worried about getting the keys in time and payments, but it all worked without a glitch!

My husband and I stayed in this very lovely apartment for three days during February, 2010. The location cannot be better. The accommodations are just as pictured. The finishing touches left by Barbara and Derek, such as coffee and snacks, were very thoughtful. We have recommended the apt to friends and will return again. It is a great find!

Thank you Barbara and Derek for the use of your beautiful condo. The location was perfect for us while visiting our daughter at BU. We walked everywhere or used the T. Thanks for the snacks. Your condo is decorated beautifully and it was nice and clean. We really enjoyed our stay there. The location was perfect! Thanks for being so prompt with any questions we had.

Barbara...we loved Boston and renting your condo! Thank you for the treats...I think the chips were gone before we went to bed the first night. The location was exceptional! We took the Fenway tour, walked the entire Freedom Trail and pigged out at Quincey's Market. What a treat for all of us. Sandy P.S. We just got home and the check was waiting for us;)
