This townhouse was very clean and in a great location; getting in and out could not have been easier. The host was great in terms of availability and communication.I would just suggest that the description of the townhouse note that the stairs between the upstairs bedrooms and the downstairs (where the bathroom is located) are narrow and steep (perhaps a picture of the stairs could be included; they're not a deal-breaker but good to be aware of) with a step-down from the bedrooms to the landing at the top of the stairs. Had I known that, it would not have discouraged me from staying here because everything else was great, but for an older person (such as myself), using the bathroom in the middle of the night requires caution.

Watertown Stay

The location was convenient for visiting Boston. We appreciated the parking space. Rental was clean and roomy. Comfortable family room. Great nearby restaurants (Halva Kebob, 5-minute walk was excellent.) Cute back deck too!The interior stairs to the bedrooms are very steep. Neighbors share the driveway and their yard is full of junk; it is pretty unsightly. Also the same neighbors have multiple dogs that bark out a window directly across from the bedroom. Kitchen could use a colander but otherwise it was nicely stocked.

Nice stay

This was a nice stay for BC graduation. Not far drive to BC and lots of restaurants nearby. Very clean and great communication from owner. AC units are okay. 1 fan in bedroom. If staying at a hotter time, could use more fans. If owner wanted to make any upgrades I would say to add ceiling fans. Mattresses were great. My daughter said she had a great night’s sleep. Stairs are very steep to bedrooms. Older guests would not do well. Nice deck area but small yard is covered with ant hills. I wouldn’t recommend letting kids play in the yard. Overall I was happy with the stay.

Excellent property for our family

This townhome was excellent for our visit to Boston. The property was very nice, well renovated. The immediate area had a Panera, Dunkin, CVS and many other local restaurants within walking distance. The owner was very responsive. We contacted for a minor issue, she responded within minutes and had it resolved within hours. It was our family of teen kids, wife and I. We were at an event at New Balance Track in Allston, not too far from Harvard. Which was a very inexpensive Uber. Downtown to the townhome too was an inexpensive Uber, as was the airport. The two bedrooms are located on the second floor. First floor had a very nice living room, kitchen with modern appliances and a very nice bathroom. The stairs are a little on the steep side. There was a small deck with table, chairs and a grill with a small yard. We didn’t use, but would be something we would have used during warmer months. All and all, we very much enjoyed one of the nicest cities that I have been to and this townhome was a good part of the enjoyment.
