Great Place

We were in Boston for the Marathon and this property provided easy access to the trains and downtown. It was clean, comfortable and well-equipped. Susan was very prompt and responsive to any questions and requests we had. Will be on our list the next time we are in Boston.

West Roxbury

Overall, the property was roomy with space to spread out. One bedroom required walking through another which could be awkward but was fine with friends. Patio area was not ready to be used. Lots of debris and no broom to clean off seats. Near to places but got expensive going into town.

Home Away from Home

This property was beautiful and well kept. It was in a lovely old neighborhood and it was a great place to relax and wind down after a long day of sight seeing in Boston. Susan was quick to respond to our questions and needs. The price was reasonable for the area, the beds were comfortable and I loved the sunroom. 5 stars!

Winter holiday reunion in comfy well-appointed home

Our grown kids and friends are in Boston, this well stocked, immaculate home easily sleeps 6 and made a great base for late Dec get-together. Access and good parking front and rear made this corner lot excellent, backyard looks well suited to summer as well. The town center with great shopping and restaurants is very close-by, easy reach to city and suburbs. Susan was a helpful, responsive host. We hope to be back soon

First Boston visit

The house is as shown in pics. It was clean & well equipped. I recommend a car as transit stop is not convenient. Susan was a great host, even when we locked ourselves out, she came over and was very gracious about getting us in. It was my fault. The 4 of us were comfortable for the entire stay. We all agreed we would recommend staying here

Simply beautiful!

This home is the quintessential Boston home. It's old and historic but feels fresh and modern. The host, Susan, was a joy to work with. It was my first time to Boston, and although it was a bit farther from the city life than one might want it was a quick walk to the commuter train then a quick transfer to the orange line into the heart of the city. The home is fresh and immaculate with a variety of coffee, teas and espressos at the waiting. Be wary of the quiet hours. We got back from the Sox game and we're amped up because they won, when we got home the next night we came home to the patio being soaked by the neighbors. Welp, whatcha gonna do. Enjoy this property.

Nice place. Had a nice size kitchen and 2 dinning areas. Each room had a TV and the beds were super comfortable with plenty of pillows. It was chilly in Boston so we had to use the heat and the house heated up quickly. The neighborhood is very quiet and close to many places to eat (and within walking distance). The host was readily available and checked up on us ensuring all our needs were met - this was a nice added touch.

Property clean and well stocked. Plenty of hot water for the showers. Good location-easy to get into Boston. Downtown West Roxbury close by and good supermarket with lots of good selections. Parking area was easy to access. Would stay again. One suggestion is a grab bar for the jetted tub as it has high sides. Would make it more secure for stepping out and over.

This home was immaculately clean, large, and quite comfortable. The immediate neighborhood is a very nice one and we felt really safe. It's about a 20 minute walk from the main street of the town, which is quite nice and not touristy, and we had lots of good food and there's also a great grocery store. We also walked to the train into Boston, which is just a few minutes further from there. One consideration in renting this home is that all of the bedrooms are up steep stairs, so it may not work well for families with younger children or for older people (which we just about are!)

We had a wonderful stay at this home! Communication with the host was excellent from start to finish, and the check-in process was smooth and stress-free. The house itself had everything we needed — the amenities were thoughtful and well-maintained, creating a comfortable and relaxing experience.The environment was peaceful, which made it perfect for a getaway from the busy city life. At the same time, the location was great, with plenty of nearby restaurants and activities to enjoy.The only minor issue we noticed was with the patio furniture. Because of the tree out back, it does get dusty and could use a quick wipe-down, but we completely understand it can be difficult to keep up with. It was not a big problem at all and didn’t affect our overall experience.Overall, this is a fantastic property with a wonderful host who truly provides stellar communication. We would definitely recommend this home to anyone looking for a peaceful retreat with easy access to dining and entertainment. Thank you again for being such a great host!

Great stay

Our family of 4adults and two children had a great stay at Susan’s house. It was super clean and very comfortable for our family. The location is great for easy access into Boston and Centre Street only a mile away, had nice restaurants, bakeries and coffee shops. We loved the PAC Man game too would definitely stay again if we were in the area.
