Everything was wonderful. It was a little farther outside the city than I would have liked but uber/lyft were always around and cost about $20 to get into the city. There is local commuter rail but we didn't use it uber/lyft was just easier for us. Daniel was easy to get in touch with and was very kind. I would recommend this place over and over again and hopefully will be able to make it back one day!! Thank you for a great stay in Boston.
We enjoyed our stay here. Close to Forest Hills Transit Station, good restaurants and walkability. Very quiet neighborhood, good beds and both of us slept well.
This was a great property, very clean. I had wished that it would be located a little closer to Boston as we didn't drive a car and used Uber to get to Downtown. Given that, we would still stay here again without hesitation. The owners live downstairs and are there if you need them. Everything was laid out so well, we never needed to contact them. Great stay
We enjoyed our stay in this comfortable and well equipped cabin. The neighborhood is quiet. The location is appropriate for visiting Boston and the environment. Highly recommended.
Everything seemed very clean. The hardwood floors may even have been shinier than shown in the pics! We were in town for a college graduation and essentially only there to sleep, and eat breakfast and spend our days with the graduate visiting Boston. No issues to report. A typical suburban neighborhood; my fiance was comfortable taking a walk outside after dark with no hesitations. The kitchen seemed stocked with anything needed to make a basic meal. Lots of fluffy bath towels, and plenty of blankets if needed. We had no need for heat or A/C (the window units were not yet installed) so I cannot comment on either. It also was not quite warm enough to sit outside on porch, but it gets plenty of sun in the front. If our graduate were staying in the Boston area, I would not hesitate to stay here again.

Convenient to Faulkner Hospital and restaurants
This was a very convenient place to stay for visits to Faulkner hospital. The kitchen supplies were plentiful and made it easy to do meals at the apartment. Beds were comfortable and the whole place was very clean. The living room furniture could use a refresh. It wasn’t a place for sitting around or lounging, but not too bad if spending most of the time out and about rather than in the apartment.
The stairs up to the apartment were a challenge for my mom, so that should be considered. We didn’t meet the owners, but they were quick to answer questions via the app. Decks would be more usable with some seating. Warm weather made us grateful for the AC. WiFi worked well. Overall a comfortable stay.

Good experience
Our stay was good. Except some minor issues, it was a good experience. I would recommend the owner to spend atleast 5-10 minutes before handing over to the renter.

Response from VrboOwner on 27 March 2020
Hi Sundar,
Sorry to hear you experienced minor issues. Not sure what you mean by the owner spending 5-10 minutes before handing it over to the renter? Could you please explain? As owners we try to ensure the place is spotless and ready to use. You requested to check in earlier than the normal check in time but since we had a renter the night before it gave us a small window of time to clean. You arrived a little earlier than our agreed time which we understand since you were coming from the airport but we were still wrapping up by putting some finishing touches and mopping the floor— which is why we asked for you to wait downstairs for a few minutes. Sorry if this was an inconvenience but we had very limited time to clean and we were expecting another 15 minutes before your arrival. Thanks for your patience and we hope you had a good time in Boston!

A wonderful apartment in a perfect neighborhood
This place was perfect for our family. The neighborhood was cute and quiet. There was a beautiful shaded playground at the end of the road. And it was a short walk to restaurants, shops, etc. for dinner or quick meals. The apartment itself is spacious and clean. The beds were comfortable. If I am being super picky, we didn’t love the couch too much, but overall the place was honestly above any expectations!

Magical fun-filled stay
We stayed at our home away from home for three days and it was perfect. The closeness to the bus line and connecting subway was just what we needed. After a long day exploring Boston it was nice to come back to a quiet home with the most comfortable beds. I will definitely plan on staying here again for my next trip to Boston. Daniel and Sophia were always so prompt and willing to help out. This place is a true gem!!!

Quiet neighbors and clean and convenient for our visit to Boston.
Close enough to downtown but far enough to be able to relax The house was clean and everything was just as promised. The owners were very kind and friendly. If we are ever in the area again we will stay here again.

Very comfortable stay in a sweet neighborhood
We enjoyed our stay in the Brook Farm apartment. It is well equipped, clean, cute and well maintained. The neighborhood is very pleasant and centrally located. The air conditioning is key (and much appreciated) during the summer! I would definitely recommend this apartment to my friends.

Extremely clean, safe neighborhood, great host.
Easy to navigate to and from city of Boston and surrounding activities. We stayed five nights and it was ideal. It is a second floor apartment if stairs are a problem for you. We found several interesting local restaurants.
