Excellent Bungalow in a very convenient location. Perfect for families, couples or solo travelers. Hosts were incredibly easy to communicate with and very responsive. The kids loved the air hockey table. We will definitely come again. Perfect spot for visiting Boston!
This was an amazing stay! Not too far from salem and quite close to boston itself!! we loved the ping pong/air hockey and it was a very easy drive to get to. Highly recommend
We were a family of 7 who were lucky enough to find this cozy little gem! We were in town for the weekend and the location was ideal and conveniently located to everything. House was clean and had all the amenities you would need! Communication with the owner was immediate when we had questions! We will be back! :)

It was a real pleasure hosting you and your family. Thank you for being an amazing guest.
We were visiting Boston for graduation and picked this place to stay. We had a really good experience and communication with the Cecile was seamless. She was very quick in her response for anything we needed during the stay. The location is a short drive from Cambridge area but the neighborhood is very nice and quiet. The unit is very clean and functional. We had a wonderful stay and recommend this place. We really appreciate a very prompt response from the property manager for anything we needed in the unit and during our stay.
I only had the issue about my code not working to enter and i couldnt get a hold of anyone in the moment and it was raining, haha. But they responded and let me in! House is very nice!! The only issue is my kids are older, majority of cabinets were childlock and i have NO IDEA how to unlock. So we couldn’t access cabinets and wasnt able to find a broom to clean up. I like to keep clean. But. Othererwisd, it was super nice inside, super responsive, and close to 8min drive to a wegmans! Not bad! :) i’d definitely visit again.

Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, listing accuracy
The house was adequately clean, beds were comfortable though the bedding lacked top sheets. The bathroom was clean but small, no washcloths were provided, a heads up prior to arrival and we would have brought our own. My grandsons ages 10 and 12 enjoyed the air hockey and ping pong table. The round kitchen table provided comfortable seating and encouraged lingering for conversations. The kitchen was adequately supplied with dishes, cups, glasses, utensils, pots and pans.information about the local area restaurants and attractions would have been nice.
We were in town for Head of The Charles and on the morning of the race it was an easy 20 minute drive in. The neighborhood was super quiet and plenty of options nearby for dining out and supermarkets. My teenage boys especially loved the Ping Pong/air hockey table.
