We were very pleased with our stay and would definitely stay there again. It was very easy to book, check-in/check-out. The house was up-to-date and very clean. It was also very well stocked with everyday commodities such as plenty of cook/servingware, coffee/makers, ice machine, very nice stove/oven and microwave. The bathrooms were fully stocked with plenty of towels, rags, shampoo/conditioners and body wash. The hostess was quick to respond to messages and was very forth coming on important info we needed. It was in a very convenient location for food needs, shopping, restaurants, and the T. I highly recommend this place when you are considering your stay in Boston.

The host was great!, very responsive and accommodating. Property was spotlessly cleaned and completely remodeled inside and out. Very Conveniently located. 2 miles from TD Garden. Also a plus was having parking for 2 cars. Would 100% recommend.

We had such a wonderful stay at this home. It truly checked every box for our family. From the moment we arrived, it was clear this is a thoughtfully maintained, modern space that feels both fresh and welcoming. Everything was spotless, beautifully designed, and incredibly comfortable.The location couldn’t have been better. It’s perfectly situated near great restaurants, grocery stores, and everything you might need during your stay within walking distance, with downtown Boston just a short drive away. It made getting around easy and stress-free, which we really appreciated.The host went above and beyond to make our experience exceptional. Communication was quick, friendly, and helpful from start to finish. They even provided a pack and play for our 3‑month‑old grandson, which made traveling so much easier for our family. The option for a late checkout was another thoughtful touch that we were so grateful for.We felt completely safe in the area, and the home itself was ideal for our group—my husband and me, our son and his wife, and their baby. It had the perfect combination of space, comfort, and modern amenities to make our time together relaxing and memorable.We would absolutely stay here again and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a clean, stylish, and conveniently located place with a host who truly cares about their guests’ experience.
