We booked this suite for a weekend event we had in Boston. Boston prices were that weekend, which led us here. The space was clean and comfortable, with an extra small room for my adult son, giving us room to spread out. Parking in the driveway was a bit tricky, we were lucky to be able to park on the street. Communication with the host was excellent. It was an easy drive into Boston. The suite is on the third floor which was no issue for us, but travelers should be aware.

Private and Secure

With much attention to detail, from Pantene and Olay in the shower to bistro table and chairs on small balcony overlooking a beautifully leafy area, the accommodations are clean and well thought out. The pre-visit video showing the location of stairs, amenities and sleeping arrangements was a real planning bonus!

Just right for us

Traveling from Chicago to Boston with my 10-year-old grandson (from Boise) to visit my brother and show my grandson around the city. With all my brother's children home from college for the summer, we decided it would be most comfortable for my grandson and me to stay elsewhere. This was just right for the two of us - 7 minutes away from my brother's place and convenient to the city for our forays in to town. Quiet, clean, and comfortable. I would stay again.

Clean and convenient

The room was very nice and as advertised. Nice mini fridge with water and snacks provided. Only negative was that air conditioning is listed in amenities but was told there is no cooling system upon arrival. The first night was very hot and sticky.

Response from VrboOwner on 29 March 2020
Thank you for your feedback. Boston weather has been very unpredictable and last weekend was definitely unusually hot. We do have window air conditioning units we install as it gets warmer but did not catch this spike in heat for the weekend in time. There was actually a fan in the second bedroom but you must not have seen it. Had we known you were not comfortable, we would have installed the AC right away. We apologize for the discomfort and thank you again for your feedback.

Our host was very helpful and communicative, both before and during our stay. He made himself available at all times. Both the house and the neighborhood were quiet—high value for us. The parking was free and off-street. The suite was roomy and pleasantly decorated, and had everything we wanted/needed. The bed was very comfortable! The refrigerator was larger than we expected (“small,” not “mini”). That—combined with the microwave, toaster, Keurig, hot pot, and dishes/utensils—made it possible for us to bring our own breakfasts (and one supper) there and eat them at a table. Keypads made entrances easy and we felt safe, especially since there was also an interior chain door latch in the suite. Finally, even though access to the suite goes through a hallway and stairs in the family’s home, at no point did we run across anyone or feel like we were invading their personal space.

Short stay near Boston

This was a great space on the top floor in a quiet neighborhood. Mehmet was very helpful and nice. There is a bus stop close by that makes getting to Harvard or Boston very easy. There are also many small shops and eateries nearby. We loved how we could get the hustle and bustle of the city during the day and the quiet of the burbs at night. We will definitely plan to return!

Wonderful place and people

I would recommend this to anyone. Do be aware that there are stairs, but Mehmet will help you with luggage. Very welcoming, water in the fridge and also youghurt. Snacks and power bars were on a small table that could fit four. Even fresh flowers. Comfortable queen bed and a nice little porch. Basic TV, but certainly good enough. Microwave and plates and cutlery were also there. Right on the bus line between Watertown and Harvard Square. And the owners could not be more helpful and accommodating.

This is located in a nice neighborhood of Watertown, which has good choice of cafes, bakeries and restaurants. If you want a clean place with all basic necessities you will not be disappointed.

Lovely stay

We had a wonderful stay at this property. The apartment was quiet, clean and spacious, just a short drive to Cambridge, and walking distance to several casual, good restaurants. Mehmet and his wife were very helpful and kind. As we were traveling with young children we had a few extra needs including needing to do a load of laundry and freeze an ice pack, which they graciously helped us with on short notice. We were very pleased with our stay and will certainly return if in the area again.
