Definitely recommend

Great location for our mother/daughter weekend! We were within walking distance to The Track at New Balance which saved us time and money every day of our stay. We also had easy access to the harbor and downtown areas via car. The hosts were easily accessible and responded quickly to questions I had before and during our stay.

Sister trip to Boston

My sister and I came to Boston to visit my daughter for several days. We had a great time and saw so much! The apartment was the perfect size for us and walking distance to my daughter's apartment. It could use a small microwave but otherwise was great.

Perfect location to Harvard!

Within walking distance of so many things you could need and the T. Only problem is you don't have control over the room temperature. Otherwise everything about the stay was perfect. Many amenities within the place if you forgot something! So thoughtful.

Great Place to Stay; Highly Responsive

Kevin was a great host. The place was great and at a very reasonable price. What really set Kevin apart as a host was we were getting ready to go to a meeting and, when we plugged in a space heater, it flipped the breaker for the unit. Kevin answered immediately and assisted us with getting the power back on. Very impressed!

Great comfy studio space

This stay is wonderful for 1-2 people! My sibling and I stayed here and it was quite nice. It was clean, cozy, and secure. The only things that I didn’t find absolutely perfect are the shower rack and the shower handle. The rack was a bit rusty, which turned us away from using it. The shower handle was difficult for me to figure out. I couldn’t figure out how to make the heat work in it, my sibling did though, and said that they just messed around with it until the water was hot. Keep in mind, we did not contact the owners about this, as we tend to shower either super early in the morning, or really late at night; we honestly forgot about the shower when we weren’t about to shower. I am sure the hosts would help us figure it out if we had messaged them about it, they were great with communication and information. All in all, this is a fantastic place to stay with great communication, comfort, and security. Would definitely visit again.

Not quite what it is advertised

From the pictures, you can't tell that this is a converted basement in a rather tired neighborhood. It is clean and fresh inside but you can hear literally every noise made by other people living in the house.

Had a real good stay here.

Rented this room for my day off of work. And I have to say, I'm glad that I rented this room and even for a small room it was still really spacious to get around. Thanks Kevin for allowing me to have that experience for the nights I was staying.

Good enough

Stay was good but not necessarily worth the cost. Room is small as advertised and bathroom nicely renovated. Mini fridge made noises the entire night making sleeping difficult. Comfortable and easy to get around with the parking but could have been cheaper for location and size.

Stay in Boston

This rental was fine. We weren’t there much. It is very small, more like a motel room. A few improvements would make it much more enjoyable for guests. 1. Adding a microwave 2. Fixing the very squeaky bathroom door 3. More hooks for towels Overall, it was fine for our needs. We were able to park the rental car without any extra fees. We appreciated that. The owner was quick to respond to our questions. It’s within walking distance to the train but not the subway.

Just what we needed for the week…

Clean, quiet neighborhood. Good for a morning jog at the park near the river. Proximal to all transit, so if you’re not leaving the city you don’t really need a car. Nearby grocery store. The breakfast club is the breakfast spot, and big daddy’s pizza is the pizza spot 🍳🍕🙌🏼

Nice Property, Needs Some Maintenance

The apartment was nice and comfortable. It was easy to get to the commuter rail and to the bus stop around the corner to get into Boston. It could use a dustpan and a shoe rack/mat and the bathroom needs some work but is still nice. The one complaint I have is the cleaning and service fee was quite high I feel but that may not be the properties issue and it might be VRBO. I would stay here again if I was in the area.
