Great apartment

Apartment exactly as shown. Nice place in a great location, easy walk to T, restaurants, shops, etc. Management company was excellent with clear communication and made everything easy. The only thing to be aware of with this apartment is the train runs close to the back bedroom - if you're a light sleeper, this may be an issue. Other than that, highly recommend.

Thank you for the thoughtful review, Jeanne. We’re so glad the apartment matched the listing, and that the location made it easy to walk to the T, restaurants, and shops. And we appreciate you noting the train proximity for light sleepers — being near transit is part of what makes the location so convenient, and we always aim to be transparent so guests can choose what fits their preferences best. It was a pleasure hosting you, and we’d be happy to welcome you back anytime.

Family of 3 - came into town to see a show and do some local college tours. This is a good place…clean, comfortable beds, parking available (for extra cost) Easy drive to everything in the city. It’s a little more pricey than I think it’s worth, especially compared to local hotels. But we enjoyed our stay.

We’re thrilled that you enjoyed the cleanliness, comfort, and convenience of our property, Jessica. Regarding the parking, we rent the spot from the owner, and the charge helps ensure its availability for our guests. We understand that pricing is a crucial factor, and we believe our rates are highly competitive. Our pricing reflects the value of the amenities and space we provide, which we feel is a great deal compared to nearby hotel or furnished rentals with actually comparable offerings.

I absolutely loved my stay here. Great neighborhood, great apartment. It was clean and well stocked. The host was amazing at communication and attentiveness. The only tiny issue was the street noise.

Had issues initially getting in but finally did. Outlets in master didn’t work, TV in living room didn’t work. Building itself was dirty but unit was clean. The twin beds were not comfortable and ended up sleeping on the couch. For paying 1,100 for the stay, I was very disappointed. Send a message via VRBO with zero response!!!

Response from VrboOwner on 13 Dec, 2025
Thank you for taking the time to share your feedback, Rocell. During your stay, we did not receive any report regarding the twin beds or the living room TV; these points were raised only after checkout. Had they been communicated at the time, we would have assisted immediately. The TV was inspected following departure and is working properly. Access instructions were provided in advance, and guests routinely enter without difficulty using the same steps. The unit itself was prepared and documented prior to arrival. We remain committed to resolving concerns promptly when they’re shared during a stay.
