Elegante Back Bay Brownstone - Comm Ave - 1+ Cama - Una semana como mínimo

Thank you, Julie. I am so glad you had a wonderful stay.

Thank you, Susan. Much appreciated.

Melissa and her son were lovely guests. Like many of my guests, parents love to stay at my Brownstone when bringing their kids to college, for visits, and graduations.

Thank you, Margaret. Come back any time.

Wonderful to have Sherry and her young grandchild, here from the West Coast for ballet lessons. I welcome them back anytime.

You are most gracious, Tracy. You were wonderful guests at such a special occasion, your daughter's dual college graduation. Thank you!

Oh Patricia, thank you for your review. It was special having you stay in the Brownstone condo with your daughters. And I love the Blue Crab Bay stoneware piece. I'm using it! All the best, Thérèse

Wonderful, enthusiastic guests were excited to be here for the marathon. I welcome them back anytime.

Thanks again, Julie!

Shelly, you, your husband and 7 year old son were such wonderful guests. Everything went so smoothly and I am so pleased to know how great you found the location, near all that Boston has to offer in culture, sports, history and fun. Cheers and all the best, Thérèse

Curtis, Thank you for staying at my Back Bay brownstone during Marathon week, and for noting the location, walkability, rideshare convenience, and communication. I’m glad those parts of the stay worked well for you. I’m sorry that other aspects did not meet your expectations. This is my personal residence, which I make available selectively. While many guests enjoy the character and warmth of staying in a real Back Bay home, I understand that it can feel different from a more traditional vacation rental. Back Bay is a coveted central-city location, and with that can come urban noise — especially during major-event weeks and early-morning service activity. I also appreciate your comments on the sleeping arrangements and comfort, and I’ll review the listing language to ensure future guests have the clearest possible expectations. Thank you again for your feedback. I take guest experiences seriously and appreciate the opportunity to continue improving. Best regards, Thérèse

Thank you for your review. I'm so pleased you had an enjoyable stay and explored Boston. If only it had been a bit warmer. With regard to a couple of downsides you mentioned: 1) Heat: I urge guests to contact me with any questions or issues at any time (e.g., heat) as they are easily and quickly remedied. 2) Bathrooms: There are actually two bathrooms. Powder room upstairs and full bath downstairs, as noted in the description of the property. It takes more than one visit to explore Boston, I'd love the opportunity to once again host you in my brownstone condo if/when you return. Thank you!

Joan, thank you for your lovely review. Much appreciated. You are welcome back anytime, All the best, Therese

Barbara & Michael, It was a true delight to meet and host you at my Back Bay condo - indeed visit with you however briefly during your stay. Knowing that you also host guests at your excuisite Cote d'Azure home, made your review that much more meaningful to me. Thank you and all best, Therese

Lawrence, I appreciate your taking the time to write a review. Rarely do I not get five stars, but you have alerted me on essential features that were lacking or incorrect. Thank you. I didn't think it said two bedrooms; at least the headline is 1 . If a safe was listed, that's dead wrong. If you come in a few months, my new sofa bed will have arrived. These corrections and enhancements will be made, including more drawers. Additionally, I am adding a discount for a week plus stays. Thanks again for your stay.

Katherine, I'm delighted that you enjoyed your stay, your parents too. I greatly enjoyed meeting you on arrival. I always make a point of greeting condo guests when they arrive and be available by phone/text during their stay. On shades, I recently met with a designer to have some them made. It was not an issue until last fall when the 100-foot tree with Muir-woods-like-width in my patio came crashing down. It had provided a lot of shade, blocked light at night. I'll make a point of getting some eyeshades for visitors who sleep on the pull-out until the shades are installed. If you decide to do Boston again, I would be delighted to host you. All the best, Thérèse

Thank you, Eve. So happy you enjoyed a wonderful stay. Seems like you may be making the trip more often if your daughter goes to BU. Have a wonderful rest of the summer, Thérède

Julia, thank you so much for your generous and thoughtful review. It was truly a pleasure to host you for your first trip to Boston, and I’m delighted that the brownstone felt like a comfortable home base for your stay. I’m so glad you enjoyed the neighborhood, the location, and those beautiful walks along Commonwealth Avenue and through the Public Garden — it really is a special part of the city. I also appreciate your kind words about the home and about my hosting. It means a great deal to know you felt welcomed and well cared for. You were wonderful guests, and I would be very happy to welcome you back anytime. Thank you again! Thérèse
