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!

Nice place to stay

We had a great time while we were here. The owners left a cute welcome gift and that was a nice touch. I would stay again. I will say that it would be nice to have cleaning supplies accessible. I know they have a cleaner but I like to touch up and clean prior to leaving, some wipes at the very least.

Disliked: Location
On the whole, it was ok. the beds were very comfortable. There was no dish soap, not enough face cloths, no dish rags to wash the dishes. the floors were sticky. Only one roll of toilet paper for 3 people for 8 days. Fan in bathroom blows out hot air and no grab bars in tub. My adult children were locked out of the house on the porch at 9:30 at night. Luckily I was in the house to let them in the front door. I don't plan on staying there again. Too much traffic in the area.

We left halfway through our trip when my partner and I realized the multitude of problems and health concerns at this property. I can only add 8 pictures, I would add more if it was possible. They also use Midea window AC units that are on Federal recall for an immediate refund from the CFPB, in fact, I actually got a refund because I had one of the units affected, and the ACs at this location are affected also. They will not get back to you, and when they reply, they will send a generic response if any response at all while failing to address concerns. Have yet to hear back from the Host, have been in contact with Vrbo.
