About the host
Hosted by Dechenla Sherpa
We are healthcare professionals working in Boston with 2 little kids who keep us on our toes. Originally from Nepal, we love to travel, host and meet new people. As a family, our favorite activity is trekking and camping. We have trekked in the high himalayas and we plan to retire there some day.
Why they chose this property
Melrose is a small town just a little north of Boston. It is bustling with restaurants, wining and dining and shopping experience. It also has a couple of train stations. They say Melrose is the best kept secret of MA.
What makes this property unique
This property is ideal for a group of 4. Although just 1 bed room, it has enough space to accommodate more. It is bright, warm and sunny and has a private entrance. What more can you ask for? It has lots of kid friendly amenities.
