About this property

🎖The Ashmont Apartment - Close to Subway & Downtown Boston🎖

This stunning 2 bedroom/2 bath apartment is brand spanking new - along with all of the furnishings. It includes one queen & one full size ensuite bedrooms. The unit is extremely clean and very nicely decorated. Only a 5 minute walk to Ashmont station (red line), which will take you directly to downtown Boston, Harvard Square, South Boston, Kendall/MIT, U Mass. There are two great restaurants nearby - Via Cannuccia and Tavolo Ristorante, as well as a local coffee shop + a Dunkin just across the T station.

The Space

The historical property was built in 1894. It is located in Ashmont Hill, which is an area within Boston's Dorchester neighborhood that is known for their beautiful victorian homes, and its diverse and eclectic neighborhood.

The house is located only about a five minute walk from Ashmont T station, which is the first or last station on the red line. Extremely convenient.

The Ashmont Apartment is Unit 1 (First Floor) of our two family home to which we have converted the entire property into a unique Guest House and Outdoor Living Space that is open year round, with the exception of The Office - which is closed during the winter months. The Ashmont Suite or Unit 2 is in the second and third Floor, while @ The Boiler Room is located in the garden level.

***IF YOU ARE PLANNING OR LOOKING FOR A SPACE TO HOST A PARTY/EVENT/FRIENDS, OR TO BE IN A SPACE TO BE LOUD, THIS IS NOT THE SPACE FOR YOU.

Our host was greatly communicative and offered recommendations. The stay was completely homey for our conference we attended over a weeks plus some time.

Really conveniently close to a couple of subway and bus stations. Cozy apartment, with a really nice backyard.

This was a lovely apartment with great amenities and well equipped kitchen. It was sparkling clean with comfortable beds. Just an FYI, it was farther from downtown than I expected; a 20-25 Uber/Lyft or 25-30 minute train ride, and there is not much within walking distance. Knowing that, it was a nice apartment with good outdoor patio

About the host

Hosted by Eddie Romo

Hi There!

We're Eddie and Elizabeth ! A young and fun loving couple currently living and working in the great City of Boston.

However, we're both originally from Texas. But met and got married in China just before repatriating back to the U.S. in 2016. We both absolutely love to eat, drink, host, mingle, and travel. We are always thinking, planning or dreaming of new adventures close and afar. And anywhere we travel, we usually seek the latest culinary experience, or are in search for that perfect cocktail anywhere we go.

And right behind traveling, we both absolutely love to host! We believe that hospitality is really an acquired art form for making others feel welcome, comfortable, and at home. We believe that it is the talent for spreading warmth and kindness that will be remembered always!

We both lived abroad for a great part of our lives. Elizabeth spent time in Africa and went to school in France before moving to Asia. I, on the other hand - spent time in Europe before moving to Beijing in 2000, right after graduating from college.

Our paths crossed in China in 2010, and in 2015 we tied the knot in Shanghai. Shortly thereafter, In 2016, we repatriate back to the US - and now call Boston home.

We both had great experiences traveling in Asia, and we felt compelled to return back to the Americas and try to replicate the same adventures here at home. We are now both very happy to be back in the US - and even more so when we have the opportunity to live in this great city.

We look forward to hosting you! 🫡
