Work trip with friends

Our stay at Misha's place was flawless. We used each of the three bedrooms and found the apartment to be a wonderful respite from the hustle and bustle of the city and our busy work trip. Parking was easy and communicating with Misha was very smooth and helpful. I'll definitely consider staying at the property again when I'm in town. Thank you!

Fantastic place and location.

Michael was very responsive to all of my inquiries and he made sure the place was clean when we arrived. The property was is good condition and very spacious. It is in an excellent location that is near the a T stop, a movie theater, restaurants, and is not on a busy street. My friends and I all had a good time. The beds were also very comfortable. I would recommend this place to anyone staying in the Newton/Boston area.

Sweet local home

This house is eclectic in decor and layout, and super comfortable. The beds were really nice and there was lots of extra bedding if needed. Some things are a bit rundown in appearance, such as the patio and driveway, and the water pressure in the shower was either perfect (or absent if someone else in the apt was using water), but overall the inside space was lovely and we enjoyed our stay.

Clean good neighborhood. Great communication

Very clean place in good neighborhood. Good value. Great communication by property manager. Apartment was well equipped with essentials like towels, kitchen products, and good space. Door knob was a bit tricky to turn. Available parking on driveway. Exterior could use some love (I.e. paint job, garage exterior repair, and landscaping).

Great Stay for College Visits!

Clean, spacious flat with everything you need - comfy beds, parking, fully equipped kitchen, and most hygiene items on hand. Two blocks from Chestnut Hill T station on the green line (D train). Great for visits to BC, BU, and Fenway. Host was attentive and responsive. Not the quietest neighborhood. One day we had exceptionally low water pressure and extra hot, making showers uncomfortable. Overall would stay again if traveling with family. Good price for a launching pad.

Haven for Witchcraft?

There were several issues here. First, when we arrived the apartment was 50 degrees inside. It was so cold that we left and drove around in our warm car for over two hours, waiting for the apartment to heat up. Throughout of two day stay, we had to constantly turn the heat back up because it would always default back to 50 degrees.The toilet seat was dirty and I had to clean it myself.The refrigerator stop working for whatever reason.BUT, the about listed things pales in comparison to the fact that there was an eerie feeling inside the apartment...Each member of my family came to me separately and stated something felt weird and uneasy in the place. The each said that they felt like they, "were being watched." I then started to take a closer look at the residents where I found several items of witchcraft in the home.1. There is an oija board sitting on a bureau in the dining room. 2. There is also a small alter to Ganesha (Indian elephant god). 3. There is a Hindu statue in the same room.4. There are masks on the wall. One looks remarkably like Konshu (Egyptian sun god). The other was a Buddhist mask with an amulet of magic hanging from it.This location was very unsettling. Good location, but not great vibes inside.

Clean, comfortable and convenient!

This was a beautifully decorated place, super clean and well kept. The beds were so comfortable, and the pillows so fluff, we had better sleep there than at home. Also, probably one of the most beautiful towel folding I've seen. The kitchen was complete with appliances, utensils (strangely, apart from teaspoons) and all sorts of dishes and glasses, making cooking and dining in an absolute breeze. Communicating with Michael was seamless and a true pleasure - he was very responsive, helpful, and entirely accommodating. The only slight issue was the location - while the it completely suited our needs, and we felt very safe in the area, it was a bit distant from Boston, at around 45 minutes via public transport - 10 minute walk to the green line, and then about a half an hour to downtown. All in all, I would wholeheartedly recommend this property to other travelers, and would definitely stay again myself if we're ever around.

Why they chose this property

This is an old house with a lot of spirit, while it is hidden away in the quieter neighborhood it's conveniently located to everything in Boston.

What makes this property unique

It is located near the legendary Country Club golf course (the oldest country club in the USA) and within walking distance of the Boston College campus. At the border of Brookline/Chestnut Hill. This is a perfect location near Boston, where you can stay in a quiet, green residential area. D-train (7 minutes walking from the house) is convenient for a fast and easy commute to downtown Boston, including the Longwood medical area. Rt 9 (Boylston St) makes it very easy to drive into Boston. Walking distance to upscale malls, grocery stores, luxury cinema, parks, and Neta- Boston's first recreational cannabis dispensary.
