We appreciated the calm in the evenings and Kathy's welcoming nature. All the little necessities are in the apartment (condiments, toiletries, maps,…) Having access to a washing machine and dryer was a great plus. Street parking is available within 15 to 20 minutes of brisk walking.Internet is available, but no phone. Would return without hesitation.

This was our first trip to Boston for my family of 6. Kathy was friendly, courteous, and felt like a friend I'd known all my life. The apartment was clean, easy to locate, and near to parks, subway access, and stores. Parking was a bit stressful, but that is to be expected in Boston and Kathy let me know that prior to our stay. The price was right and it met all our needs. I would reccommend this apartment to any family looking to be away from the crowds of the city. Thanks to Kathy for a memorable stay in Boston!

We chose this unit because of its size, price and location. We were not disappointed! It was very spacious, clean, close to the train, convenient to the airport, and a perfect place for a family of 5. The owner is very hospitable! We would definitely love to stay here again.

BEST big bed, pillows and sheets we have EVER found at a hotel or cottage etc. Everything worked perfectly. Even for the 2 of us the price was better than staying at a hotel near the convention center. And there was room for 4 more people! Highly recommend. Marty and Allyson

La proprétaire, Kathy, aime sa ville de Boston et sait comment nous le faire sentir. Kathy est une mine d'information qui permet de rendre le séjour encore plus agréable. Tout était bien prévue pour notre famille (2 adultes, deux enfants (age 8 et 11). L'appartment était confortable, les lits encore plus et tout était comme promis dans l'annonce. Le déplacement vers le centre-ville prenait environ 15/20 minutes avec nos enfants et se faisait très bien. It was a beautiful stay.

Friendly atmoshphere and location, very nice and helpful owner. May be crowded for more than 4; you do not need a car to get into the center, but it takes at least 30 min. Had a pleasant stay there for a couple of days.
Owner response:Most of our larger parties are families. Happy to have all the kids share a room. We have had up to 4 kids in the living room, on the 2 futons. yes for 2 couples it can be a challenge for privacy.

Kathy and family ~ Thanks so much for providing a lovely, comfortable and convenient apartment! We felt right at home instantly! We did not want for anything - everything was perfect! Your suggestions and directions were great, and it was easy getting around on the T and the bus system - even with a wheelchair! It was also great getting to know you! You always have place to stay in California! Thanks again for making our stay in Boston a wonderful experience! Kurt, Kate, Connor & Jens

Thank you so much Kathy for opening your home to us. We had such a good time and your gracious hospitality made our vacation that much more enjoyable. Potential future guests -- here's what you need to know: The apartment -- plenty of space, so clean, nicely decorated (but won't make you crazy if you are family with small children), well-equipped for cooking and eating-in. We were very sorry we didn't have more time to laze about on the back deck. The location -- easy easy access (1 min walk) to the bus stop, train station a short 10 min walk, easy access to grocery and great little places to eat. The host -- Kathy bent over backward for us, helping us procure museum tickets, providing bus schedules, anything we could have wished for. We now recommend this VRBO for any of our friends headed to the Boston area.
Owner response:You all are welcome... we appreciate being your home away from home! See you all soon. Kathy
