Great place!

This apartment was perfect for our couples weekend trip to Boston: 15 minutes walking to the red line, quiet (for a city) neighbourhood, clean space, and parking. The only downside was the upstairs residents seemed to be the most active from 10 pm to around 4 am every night, heavy footfalls and moving furniture across the floor. Otherwise its the perfect place to stay.

We absolutely loved staying here. It was very homey and comfortable for our family. They left a welcome bag which was very nice! We loved they had a portable bed for our child to sleep in the same room as us. Also, linens being provided was so very convenient. We do trips to the Boston childrens center and will definitely have this on radar for our next trip out!

Great Place!

With the traffic in Boston, you can't hardly beat the location. We loved the ease of driving to get to anywhere. Wifi signal was a bit poor in places and we weren't sure what the extra keys were for, but it was a great place to stay!

Very nice stay for a few days in Boston

Everything was just as David had stated on the website, and he was very responsive to initial inquiries when booking and also upon arrival. Plenty of towels, and though we didn't need, there were extra toiletries in the event you forgot something. Bed was very comfortable and apartment was clean.

First trip to the area

This is our first trip to New England. We wanted to explore Boston and the accommodations were perfect for our needs. My fave key points: On site parking An easy walk to the train for going in town Full size coffee maker (we always bring our own coffee and filters… but there were coffee packets provided) Fridge for our food Hot water for showers and preferably tall shower head which this bathroom shower does have Good communication with easy check in and out. Would recommend.

Beautiful home

The home is spotlessly clean and beautifully furnished. The description of "near downtown Boston" is a bit of a stretch. The property is in Dorchester, a good 30 min. drive from Boston. That being said the neighborhood is quiet and clean, and Uber took care of the distance.
