Can't beat this location! Right in the heart of the North End but tucked into a private little side street. It was bigger than expected and very tidy.

This was an ideal apartment for a 4-week stay in Boston.  The location is fantastic, crawling with excellent restaurants (Coppa and B&G Oysters were my favorite) bakeries (Cafe Nero and Blackbird Donuts) and tree-lined streets.  A 10 minute walk to the Back Bay station (connecting to commuter trains and the T), and a nice walk through Chinatown to the Common, or North to the Symphony and Northeastern University.  This unit faces away from Tremont St., so it is quiet and sunny.  Laura was very responsive in dealing with my requests.  Would gladly stay here again.

Location, location, location! What a lovely apartment in the heart of beautiful Beacon Hill. Jay was a gracious host, very accommodating and willing to help to make our stay the most enjoyable possible.

First off, I'll say all of us, (three adults, one infant), agreed - our five days in Boston were significantly improved by staying at this apartment.  Our hosts were gracious, and welcoming; we enjoyed our contact with them and appreciated their sincere efforts to share information and their help with negotiating details with our stay.
<br/>The apartment was exactly as described and was outfitted with everything we might need to make us feel "at home."
<br/>The neighborhood was wonderful.  We did a good bit of walking.  The homes were fascinating in their colors, style, elaboration and settings.  We felt completely at ease walking to the T or for breakfast, walking to the pond or making a run to the drug store.
<br/>This was the nicest stay of all my visits, (which are many), to Boston.

We chose to stay at this apartment because it is close to Boston University where we were attending a conference. The apartment is so spacious and light but also cosy and inviting at the same time. It was really easy to get to from Logan airport, and even more so with the directions that Jacklyn gave us. I'm so glad that we chose to stay at Jacklyn and Joel's place because we felt right at home! The apartment was spotlessly clean - I can't fault it at all. Jacklyn even dropped by to check that we had everything we needed.  Contact with her and Joel was also always super easy. If I ever go back to Boston, I'll definitely stay here again.

Thanks to Katharine and Scott, my first airbnb stay was a real pleasure. It was great to be welcomed after a straightforward trip from the airport using the free airport shuttle bus and then the blue and orange T (subway) lines. 
<br/>It was a treat to have almost the whole of the upstairs floor to myself even though I only spent the hours of 11pm - 10am there because there were so many things I wanted to pack into my Boston visit.
<br/>I enjoyed the coffee, fresh fruit, granola, yogurt and a variety of baked treats at breakfast time. Travelling on my own it was nice to have Scott to talk to. He could answer my questions about local buildings and the history of this interesting neighbourhood. As I had a Samuel Adams brewery tour (10 minutes walk away) booked for the Friday morning it was interesting to learn that the house was originally built for brewery workers. 
<br/>The Hedges is also within walking distance from the Wonder Spice Cafe, Doyle's Cafe and the Brendan Behan pub providing good local food and drink options in Jamaica Plain.
<br/>With Green Street T station stop nearby, it is also easy to visit downtown Boston and art museums near Fenway (Ruggles stop) without changing. Even museums at M.I.T. and Harvard are easy to reach by changing / transferring to the Red line at Downtown Crossing. The MBTA 7 day link pass on a Charlie ticket is a bargain for $19 (2015) and can be purchased from ticket machines at T (subway) stations. 
<br/>For a scenic change from the city I can also recommend a trip by commuter rail to Rockport and Gloucester (Cape Anne) from North station (Orange line). Salem would be a closer option on the Rockport line but I will have to save that and Boston's Museum of Fine Arts for my next trip to Boston. I know where I want to stay already!

We had a great time ! Our main reason to come to Boston was to watch the Bruins play and we were in perfect walking distance to stadium.  The location was great ! Right around the corner from stores and restaurants galore ! Everything you would need.  The apartment was great ! So much better than worrying with hotels and other guests.   We hope we get to come back again soon !

Great location.  If you come by car, there's a place to park, and if you take public transportation, it's about a 15 second walk from the Red line.  Manuela is very hospitable and kind (she bought me some fruit for breakfast), and she has led an interesting life and it's fun talking with her.  She's both interesting and interested.  This was my second time here, and if I find myself in town again, I'd come back.

Very good stay at Ricardo's place! Ricardo was not there but answered to our questions very quickly and gave clear instructions ! His roomates were very welcoming and friendly and gave us wise advices about Boston hotspots for tourists. The room was exacly as expected ! The place is not in central Boston but the centre is very easy to reach with the orange line which is not far from the appartment!

The apartment is well located. We parked the car for the week-end and did not use it as we walked to anywhere we wanted to go. We had an issue with the heating system but Dror was understanding and we resolved the situation in a timely manner. Although can easily host 6 persons (2 in each bed) the apartment is not adapted for a baby as there is no bath nor a microwave.

Tiffany was a great host!  She was very prompt in answering any questions we had.  Also very flexible with our check in and check out times.  The train is about a 10 min walk which was very convenient for us since we did not have a car.  The space was very clean and the pictures are very accurate of the place.  The location is not very far from the airport either, which was a big plus.

Yi's place is very clean. All the other roommates were very nice as well. He's also a great host and tried to provide me with everything that I needed. 3 min walk to the bus that can get you to Harvard University. 15 min walk to HBS. Great value for anyone who is visiting HBS.

The Rosenberg family provided us a warm welcome to their beautiful family house in a quiet neighborhood close to Boston College. We enjoyed a lot of privacy, a spacious room with it's adjacent bath room and were given detailed and informative introduction to activity close by and in the city. Light breakfast was available.

The room was simple and had everything we needed. Miriam was very nice and gave us space while at the same time making sure we knew she was available if we needed anything. She provided juice and bagels in the fridge for breakfast the following day which was very thoughtful. The bed was very comfortable and we felt very cozy. Overall a great experience and we would love to stay here again.

Victor was amazing! He's so nice and hospitable, he even has an array of snacks for you to choose from. The place was even more adorable than the pictures, and conveniently located between a pizza place and a cvs. Access to the T was a great plus. Only a 3 minute walk and all of Boston is at your fingertips.

My partner and I used this service for our recent visit to Boston from Canada, with her father joining us for some of the days as well. It was my first AirBNB experience, so I was a little nervous, but it ended up being a wholly positive experience.  
<br/>
<br/>Marie and Gerard were very quick to answer enquiries after we made the booking.  Once we were there, they were very accommodating, including when due to airport logistics we arrived for check-in hours later than we claimed we would be. 
<br/>
<br/>The apartment itself is clean and well-maintained. The pictures fail to highlight the high ceilings and beautiful hardwood floors. There are enough dishes, pans, appliances, etc. in the kitchen to prepare your own meals there if you wish, and the personal washer/dryer was a nice bonus. It was late November, so it was too cold to use the patio area, but the heating in the apartment worked great.
<br/>
<br/>The provided sheets and blankets were nice and soft. Beds are on the firm side, so it wasn't the most comfortable for us as we like things a little softer, but that is down to personal preference. We also got a good night's sleep on them all week regardless of this fact.
<br/>
<br/>As the listing and many reviews already confirm, this location is a friendly, beautiful neighbourhood that is accessible to areas of downtown Boston in little time, even if you are using public transit. If you want to be extremely close to downtown Boston but want to come back to a quiet, relaxing neighbourhood, this is pretty much the ideal spot. It's also very close to one end of the Freedom Trail for tourists.  Also nearby are several great restaurants (great meals were had at Warren's Tavern and Figs), a 24-hour convenience store, a grocery store, and a liquor shop should you not want to go downtown.
<br/>
<br/>We had a great time being tourists in Boston, and part of it was due to this wonderful little place to come back to every night. I would recommend this apartment to others and depending on the circumstances could see myself staying here again in the future.

This house suited our trip perfectly! Such a beautiful Colonial home in a great neighborhood.
<br/>
<br/>Nicolo was a very informative and communicative host. The house guide answered any questions we had and the house--from the space to the location--was more than accommodating. 
<br/>
<br/>Highly recommended. And thank you!

Lovely stay in a pleasant room and a quiet neighborhood made this a most enjoyable trip. My hostess was gracious and kindly kept a full supply of drinks and supplies for a continental breakfast at hand. I loved the smell of muffins baking in the morning. There was always room on the street to park (but I did tend to return with my car before 7:30 in the evening). There is a stop on the red line not too far away, which was very convenient for getting to Cambridge and downtown Boston. If you can climb stairs without any problem, I highly recommend this host.  You *must* be able to climb stairs to stay here!

James and Pierre, I enjoyed staying at your place so much! It felt like home ( granted a bit more luxurious). I loved the heated floors and the seltzer out of the fridge!

Meine Frau und ich hatten eine sehr schöne Zeit in der Wohnung. Sie war groß, sehr sauber und bestens eingerichtet. Auch Besuch konnte empfangen werden. Alles funktionierte gut. Das Schlafzimmer im Untergeschoss war zweckmäßig und das Bett sehr bequem, lediglich die Heizung bzw. Klimaanlage störte etwas. Die Wohnung befindet sich in einer ruhigen Sackgasse, trotzdem ist man mit der TUBE rasch im Geschehen. Über die durch Codes gesicherten Eingangstüren konnte man selbständig die Wohnung betreten, sodass wir anfangs keinen Kontakt zu Alex hatten. Später konnten wir ihn jedoch als Gastgeber kennen lernen, der sich sicherlich auch bei Fragen um Antworten kümmern würde; wir hatten aber keine Fragen. Wenn wir mal wieder nach Boston kommen, werden wir gerne erneut bei Alex wohnen.

The directions Hilary gave us to her beautiful home were spot on. We got there without a hitch, and although she wasn't there for the first couple of days of our stay, she'd left us pumpkin bread as a treat and a lovely letter to welcome us.
<br/>Her home is full of arts and crafts and is a really welcoming and homey environment to come back to after exploring Boston. 
<br/>The location is well connected to anywhere you could want to go to in Boston, and the neighbourhood is full of interesting streets, homes, shops and restaurants. 
<br/>We were sad to leave Hilary's home and we would recommend it to anyone going to stay in Boston!

Shawn was very helpful with accommodating my late arrival. The lockbox can be a trick but as long as you have Internet to google how to open it, you'll be set. The room wasn't was clean as i though, rubbish in the room, the floor wasn't swept. The room was big and comfortable though.

This was the perfect crash pad for a week-long Boston work trip.  Plenty of space, all the amenities you need (kitchen, private bath, laundry, cable TV, WiFi), and a at reasonable price (compared to most of the hotels downtown).  The location was ideal too-- right on Newbury Street, steps away from the Prudential Center, or the Hynes or Copley T stops.  And even though we never met in person, Alicia was always prompt to respond to messages and problems. I'd highly recommend this unit for business or long-term visitors.

What an a extraordinary experience to stay here!!<br/>This was my second time staying at Todd's place.  When I decided to come back to Boston I had no doubts in staying  in the same place due to their kindness and helpfulness<br/>Todd and Elisa were the most wonderful of hosts ! They helped me and took care of me in the best way. <br/>I am very thankful  for everything you  done for me and it was a very nice experience.. I couldn't have asked for more! <br/> The house has everything I needed and more. Everything looks newly furnished. It has 3 bedrooms, 1 bathroom very clean that had all the amenities and a kitchen very well equipped. My room was very spacious with a big closet and my bed was so comfortable with tons of pillows!<br/> <br/>It is located in a charming neighborhood closed to Harvard Business, and there is a bus that takes you to Harvard square <br/> If you are looking for a place which is nice,  welcoming  and very clean you definitely will be very happy with your stay here!!

Hermina的家周围餐厅、便利店比较多，就餐、买日用品比较方便。交通特别便利，走几分钟的路就可以到地铁站很快就可以进城。Hermina的家只有一个卫生间，然而大约有4队人马合住，所以用卫生间会有些不方便。她的家很整洁，大概是因为她对房客的要求很高。我们住在阁楼上，房间里面很温暖，楼梯很狭窄所以行李都不能搬上房间只有放在一楼客厅。Hermina对安静度要求很高，在她的家里不可以发出很大的噪音～总体来说，Hermina的家还是不错的。Thank you, Hermina.

I had a wonderful stay with Kit & Scott. Their bright, historic home is full of character, charm, color, and sunlight. The upstairs living quarters are private and easy to access right from the front door. The bedroom is spacious with a comfortable bed and all the necessaries (closet, desk, wi-fi, drawers, etc); and the bathroom is also spacious with excellent water temperature/pressure—both were quite clean. The neighborhood itself is very convenient to the Green St station (five minute walk) and downtown (15 minutes on the Orange Line). I enjoyed all the shops and restaurants on Centre Street and the beautiful homes around Jamaica Pond.
<br/>
<br/>The best part of the stay is Kit, Scott, and their family. They were so welcoming, striking the perfect balance between warm, informative conversation and allowing for privacy. Chatting with Scott over breakfast (so delicious!) and with Kit around the house made my stay very special. I felt like I was staying with friends and would happily return.

The listing was super accurate, lots of snacks and drinks, and Polly even came to pick me up at the station after I got lost. There were also face cleansers, shampoos, etc. in the bathroom so that was extremely convenient. There was lots of privacy, and the neighborhood was safe too. Great experience, definitely recommend.

The location of the apartment was great. It was a very short walk to the Charlie, and from there a very short bus ride to the airport. There was also a wonderful pub one block down that we went to almost every night for drinks and appetizers. The apartment was small and cozy, but we noticed a lingering odor of old smoke or something equally strong when we first entered the apartment and couldn't get rid of through our whole stay (we even used an aerosol air freshener). The bathroom wasn't thoroughly cleaned either. Overall our experience wasn't bad, but it wasn't the greatest. We would definitely stay there again if they fixed a few things.

I thought the room and neighborhood was really clean. All the necessary bedding was provided. Dan was out of town for work but he was always available thru mobile. Everything went right. There's also a kitchen available with all the necessary utensils, pots, pans, etc.

<br/>The neighborhood seemed pretty safe.

As a group of four university professors visiting Boston for a conference, Gloria's apartment was both more economical and much grander than staying in a hotel would have been. It has lots of different areas to spread out - the cosy kitchen, the quiet study, the grand upstairs, and the amazing roof terrace. It's also in a beautiful neighbourhood, which is safe, central, and wonderfully served for coffee houses, restaurants, bars and shops. We were all very pleased we found Gloria's place.

This was our first AirBnB rental and we were so impressed. Riyo, the Host, was very nice and accommodating. The neighborhood feels very safe and it's a short walk to the T. (only 12 mins to China Town). What makes this rental great is the privacy with the separate entrance and private bath. Also, Riyo provided water and snacks for the room which was so appreciated. The studio itself was spotless, stylish, and comfortable.

Elisangela was a wonderful host.  She was in constant communication with me on our arrival day and accomodated our last minute request for an early arrival.  When we arrived, we were pleased to find a clean and well-stocked apartment that comfortably fit four people and our two dogs.  The building was secure and located close to Angela's Cafe, Santarpios and provided easy access to downtown Boston.  Elisangela was friendly in all communications and quick to respond.  Our family could not have asked for a nicer place to spend a weekend.

Our stay at the Garden Apartment was a fantastic experience, this was our first time using air bnb Peirre was an amazing host. My partner and I were just taking a weekend away and enjoyed this space! Everything is beautifully done, and very comfortable.  The neighborhood was great, surrounded by one of the colleges however super quiet and welcoming. We were able to enjoy a couple local restaurants that Peirre suggested! Our evening walk around the area was very nice in the crisp fall air.  El Pelon and Devlins were great local places, probably the best Taco we have had in a long time!  We used Uber to travel into downtown, which was also super easy! There is so much this area has to offer, and we look forward to booking for another weekend in the future!  This space was wonderful and truly hard to leave. The kitchen has everything you need and a great cup of coffee!  We loved the seltzer in the fridge door!

The home is in a great neighborhood with excellent access to the North End, Fanuiel Hall, and downtown Boston.  Home is very clean and well maintained. This was a good value for our family that needed 3 bedrooms in the downtown Boston area.  The living room, large kitchen, and front porch are great socializing areas, which greatly enhanced our enjoyment of our 4 day Boston visit. Having a washer and dryer was also a plus as several in our group were on extended vacation/business trips. We were able to "Uber" everywhere on this trip, but we normally rent a car when we visit Boston, and having the dedicated parking space would have been tremendous for us on a typical trip.

Jamaica Plain is a great launching point and this house is quintessential Boston. Helen and Stuart both went out of their way to greet us and made our time more enjoyable. They were in no way obtrusive during our stay. The house is about two blocks from a T stop which made getting around a breeze. We loved the space, the location, and the hosts. Everything said in the previous reviews is absolutely true, right down to the delicous baked goods and homemade granola. We would not hesitate to rebook with Helen and Stuart on a return trip.

We loved our stay in Boston. The area is amazing with so much good Italian food and deli's! Apartment is clean and comfortable and Jose was great. Responsive and allowed us to leave our bags while we waited for our late flight. Wish we had more time in Boston now!

I have spent awesome three days with this house and family. The house was clean and spacious more than I expected. Besides I could use facilities such as fridge shower include towel. Although this was my first time to use Airbnb, this family gave me detailed instruction.

The room was really clean and comfortable. Even with the extra bed set up in it, it was roomy and there was plenty of space for three people. The private bath was also very good. The living room area is easy to access, and the muffins in the morning were delicious! Barney makes you feel very welcome, and we had great conversations about music and family. The house is very unique and it was fun to explore. It was our first time here at the CarneyFamily house, but we will definitely come again whenever we visit Boston.

We arrived after 8PM and Vivianne was waiting for us.  She was pleasant and showed us in.  Kevin gave me directions from the airport to the apartment using the train which was very easy to do.  The apartment was neat and clean and I liked the artwork.  It was nice to have information about local restaurants and directions to train lines/bus lines.  We were there for an interview/audition at Berklee and the walk was easy and a perfect distance to work off a little before audition stress.  Thanks for hosting us.  The place was in a nice neighborhood and it was very quiet. Nelda Murphy

Tiffany was our host this past weekend while our party of four traveled to Boston for the Shamrock Series football game at Fenway Park.  We loved our South Boston location. Within easy walking distance we found all of the essentials:  Coffee shop/Bakery, grocery store, package liquor store and a very nice restaurant, Shenanigans. It appears to be a vibrant area and we felt safe walking to places after dark. There were always people out on their bicycles, walking their dogs or exercising. 
<br/>Tiffany's home is very much as advertised and the photos accurately depict it's condition.  Our party of four was quite comfortable in the two bedrooms with the queen beds.  The living area on the first floor was spacious and the kitchen was well appointed.  We especially enjoyed our nightcaps out on the deck in the evenings. 
<br/>In no time, we were experts at finding the Broadway "T" station and found our way to the North End, Copley Square, Boylston Street and Fenway.  We did take Uber on a couple of short trips out of the south end and their service was excellent.  Trattoria Il Panino is highly recommended for a great dinner.
<br/>Tiffany was a wonderful host and made the booking, checking in and checking out process very simple. The information packet she sent to us prior to our trip was very detailed and helped us plan our trip before we arrived. She has done a marvelous job renovating her home and we would not hesitate to contact her again if we were to head back to Boston.

I stayed at Hilary's place on weekends. She answered all the questions I asked kindly before arriving there. Her house is so pretty and amazing!!!!! I was fascinated by the artistic things all over the house. Although we could not have a chance to see each other, I would recommend everyone stay and explore in Boston.
<br/>Thank you very much for having us.

What a fantastic home.  Very convenient (within walking distance) of our event at Fenway part.  Pictures were extremely accurate and the home was in fantastic shape.

I was in Boston for a conference and stayed there for 3 nights, sharing with a colleague. It was close to the subway and reasonably quiet. Good value for money compared to hotels (which are ridiculously expensive in Boston). The flat is not very bright but that was not an issue for me.

We really enjoyed staying with the Buckner family! They were always friendly and at the same time respectful of our privacy. We enjoyed having dinner with Susan, Mark, Grace and Jiyoung! <br/>The little cottage was cozy with beautiful and serene woods right there! We were welcomed with fresh fruit and bread; and enjoyed sights and sounds of squirrels in the woods, fish in the pond, and rustling leaves in the wind. This was the perfect place to recharge our batteries, and the most hospitable and loving hosts to make it a lifetime memory.<br/>Thank you Suzan and Mark!

Tyree accommodated our early arrival and  the apt itself was as expected. Public trans to Boston took longer than expected due to out of service line and a few inexperience mistakes, so I recommend taking an uber. We had trouble with the wifi and Tyree was very responsive to communicating a fix.

This is an amazing value listing for the amenities, great location, and level of comfort we received. I feel lucky I was able to get this place on such short notice. The bed and bathroom were great, the kitchen supplies were well stocked and the whole place was very clean and well taken care of. We did find a microwave and coffee grounds available in the kitchen when we got there, and there was other small details that made the place very welcoming. Sanjay was very hands off, which was great, but he also was readily available when we reached out for assistance. Would definitely try to get this place again if I was visiting the Boston area, highly recommend!

My husband and I spent a weekend at Marc's place.  The place looked exactly like the pictures; it was cozy and clean.  Marc was very accommodating in making us feel welcomed and provided recommendation on restaurants nearby.  We discovered a street of restaurants in a 15 minute walk.  Also, his house is right in front of the 64 bus route, so easy access to Cambridge on a 10 minute bus ride.  Overall, we had a great stay at Marc's place!

The North End was absolutely delightful! Plenty of delicious Italian and seafood  (Neptune Oyster!) restaurants within walking distance and a 24-hour bakery a block away satisfied our sweet tooth after hours. The apartment was so quaint and lovely - the bedroom was cozy and all appliances worked well. It was a short walk to Haymarket where you could catch a train to anywhere in Boston! We didn't even realize how close the apartment was to the airport and grabbed a Lyft instead on the way out (only $12 or so!). Jose was very attentive and accommodating, and we had no issues with our stay. Would definitely stay at this airbnb again!

Miriam and her husband are a perfect host. I reached her home at midnight and they waited for me to help me open the door and show me everything. They are very welcoming and make every effort to make your arrival and stay comfortable.
<br/>
<br/>The descriptions are perfectly accurate. Acutally, it was much beyond my expectations.
<br/>
<br/>The neighborhood is great. So peaceful. I will definitely stay at Miriam's place next time I go to Boston.
<br/>
<br/>Miriam is extremely accomodating. Initially, I booked her place for three days, but later cancelled 2 of the 3 days. Miriam was generous to refund me the money for the two days I cancelled. That was extremely kind of her.
<br/>
<br/>Further, when I reached her place, they already had water bottles, orange juice and burgers waiting for me. That was again very considerate for somebody coming at midnight. They are extremely generous. In fact, I woke up late and left a few hours late. But, to my surprise, I was not at all rushed up.
<br/>
<br/>The place is extremely clean, quiet, well-managed. And the hosts are perfect - I have not met a better host on AirBnB yet!

Everything about Cindy & Mark's Historic North End Condo was perfect!  It was in a great location to be able to explore everything Boston has to offer.  We walked almost everywhere which was good since we were only around the corner from Mike's Pastry which has the most amazing cannoli's!  The condo is situated back off the busy streets so it is quiet and comfortable.
<br/>
<br/>We had a great time and would definitely stay here again (or recommend it to our family & friends!)
<br/>
<br/>Thanks Cindy & Mark!

Yi and Nancy were the best hosts we have had so far. They were so polite an considerate at every stage. They offered everything to us from bottled water, to extra chairs, and even disposable cutlery and paper plates. The room was at par with a very good hotel room, it was immaculately clean. Both bathrooms were also extremely clean at all times, with high quality toiletries provided for us along with good quality towels. Over and above all this, the conversations we had with everyone who lived in the house were so good; they made us feel like we were home 7000 miles away from home. 
<br/>I highly recommend staying with Nancy and Yi, they are the best hosts!

<br/>The place is also really convenient for nearly everything, being a 5 or so minute walk from Roxbury Crossing station.
<br/>
<br/>Jonathan is also the most lovely guy, very easy to talk to. You could chat to him for hours about everything and anything. And he has great recommendations for restaurants and stuff nearby should you need them! He was even kind enough to drive me to the rental car place on my last day.

<br/>I would absolutely not hesistate to stay with Jonathan again when in Boston.

It is a great place to live, we lived there four days and really enjoy it.

<br/>First, the room is very clean, fully functional with powerful air condition. It also have a private bathroom, microwave, refrigerator, and TV with a lot of channels.
<br/>
<br/>Second, it is very close to the origin line of the subway (1 min walk), making the trip very convenience. Quite and safe neighbors.
<br/>
<br/>Third, Riyo is a very nice person, she warmed the room before we came in (imaging it is the late night of November in Boston). Served a lot of snacks and soda. There is also a note book with full of useful travel information collected.

If the taste might seem peculiar to some in its un-orthodox mix of nineteenth-century and Chinese-inspired decor, the feeling of an aesthetic intention creates an undeniably cosy atmosphere. I thus felt very much at home in my Hyde Park base and hugely enjoyed staying there for the two months I visited MIT. The apartment is spatious and lush and equipped with everything you could dream of, from advanced television gear to washing machine and dryer, to dish washer, coffee machine and all kinds of kitchen equipment (the missing garlic squeezer was the infinitesimal blemish that only heightened the rest, and Barbara even offered to pay for a new acquisition). There are even a few well-used gym machines in the basement. 
<br/>
<br/>I was  generously received with a bottle of white wine and amazing supplies of coffee, and Barbara and Martin reacted to all inquiries within minutes and would immediately fix any problem (the few I had were minor and mostly about technical instructions). Barbara can have a brash tongue and be a bit zealous, but that only keeps you awake. And suddenly she'll give you a bottle of red wine, so you won't be bored at Thanksgiving.
<br/>
<br/>Linwood Street is placed in a nice and quiet neighborhood, with a big supermarket 7 minutes away, a gorgeous icecream place around the corner, and, especially attractive, a wonderful wood for walking tours just 5 minutes to the North. It's a bit distant from downtown Boston, but that's compensated for by a fast commuter rail just 3 minutes away, bringing you to the city center in 15-20 minutes. Just live with fewer connections in the weekend, or otherwise supplement with the slightly slower but more frequent 32 bus bringing you to the orange line T-train at Forest Hills.
<br/>
<br/>In sum, I can strongly recommend this place if you appreciate comfort and want value for your money. I myself started out in Cambridge near Harvard with a much smaller and duller apartment for the same price. If you care about living and not only central location, this is truly a gem.

First of all, Boston is an amazing city. The freedom trail was my favorite part of the city.
<br/>
<br/>Most importantly, I feel that the location of our lodging was very important. Tyree has an amazing studio apartment. The place was very spacious (my friend, my niece, and I had plenty of room). Its also very close to key parts of the city (10 mins away from Lowes Theatre and the Boston Common).
<br/>
<br/>Tyree, was the best host. Any issue I had resulted in her immediate attention. I was amazed with how quickly her response and resolution was. I ended up leaving an item back upon my departure. Tyree was kind enough to let me know and to send it back via mail. I'm very impressed. 
<br/>
<br/>The home is located in a cul de sac and has a dedicated for a parking spot. It was my first time driving up to New England, and having a spot to park made it so much more enjoyable to explore the city at my leisure.
<br/>
<br/>Thanks Tyree for the amazing place. This will be my first choice the next time I visit!

Polly was fantastic from the get-go!  She was immediately responsive to our inquiry and the place was exactly as described. 
<br/>She was super friendly, very accommodating, and generally a really neat person.  Very dog-friendly place - and her dog (next door w/ shared backyard) is super sweet. 
<br/>
<br/>She baked coffee cake/muffins every morning (not only were they great, the place smelled amazing) and gave us fun recommendations and fun facts in/around the area from restaurants to dog parks...to the fact Mark and Donnie Wahlberg grew up at the house on the corner :) .  This was a GREAT first Air BnB experience - we'd definitely stay with Polly again if we make it back to the area!

I had a great stay at Jonathan's brownstone studio.  Jonathan went the extra mile to make me feel welcome, with snacks, water, and even a chocolate on the pillow. I would totally recommend this place to anyone visiting Boston.  I personally love the old Fort Hill neighborhood, but if you are not familiar with Boston, it is still a neighborhood in transition. It has some incredible history and architecture.

My wife and I reserved Paul's Beacon Hill apartment for her parents who came to visit us for Thanksgiving. We had a wonderful experience from beginning to finish. Paul approved us within a minute or two of submitting our request and warmly welcomed us to use the apartment for our Thanksgiving dinner. We met Paul at his office nearby the apartment to get the key the day our reservation began. He was very friendly and wanted to be sure that we were pleased with everything. He even checked the apartment temperature using an app on his phone and said he was happy to adjust it if we would like. There was no need, however, since the apartment was pleasant and warm during their whole stay. The apartment was lovely. Everything is remodeled so nicely. It was both beautiful and very functional. The kitchen had lovely new appliances and a quality gas range. The bathroom had a large tub/shower and pleasant lighting. The kitchen was also full of high-quality utensils and dishes. It was so nice even to have a brand new Keurig brewing machine with a number of coffee pods included with the stay. My wife's parents really enjoyed their stay at the apartment and they kept telling me to make sure and leave a very nice review. It was a lovely setting for our Thanksgiving dinner. After dining in the apartment, we went for a very nice walk through the beautiful neighborhood of Beacon Hill and also took my wife's parents through the Boston Commons, Public Gardens, and Newbury Street. We came home afterward and enjoyed our desert sitting together around the couch. Also to note is that the apartment is very close to Whole Foods. It is less than a minute away by foot, almost just across the street. My wife's brother was also staying with her parents at the apartment and used the pull-out bed, which worked quite nicely for him. I imagine the apartment would be a bit crowded with more than four people, but for three it was perfect. Hope all this is helpful!

Our host made us feel welcome. The neighborhood was great, easy access to Boston U and Whole Foods.  Two problems did surface -- the first night we had no heat so it was a really, really grim cold night. After consulting with our host the second and third nights had heat and were great. The second problem was one of the layout of the  apartment - great for two people, not so great for our three as the third person sleeping on the couch had to go through the bedroom to reach the bathroom.

Miriam was wonderful! She left us bagels and OJ, and supplied many towels, a hair dryer, and the space has a full kitchen. She was just a phone call away, and the tennants that rent the spaces in the building were so kind and helpful! I would definitely recommend this space to a friend, thank you Miriam for being such a great host!

Thanks Hilary for opening your home to my mother and I.  <br/>Her humble abode was nestled in a quiet quaint neighborhood. We were presently surprised to have her space to ourselves. It was a perfect resting nest for our weekend in Boston. Pictures are true to charm, but please note the space is quite petite. Which is funny coming from someone only 5ft tall, but I suppose I may be use to spreading out a bit. Bedroom does not lend room to any large luggage or seating space, but the shelves were suffice for such a short stay. Plus I was able to make the hallway my closet space hehe if you have a vehicle  be sure to take notice of street parking rules. Otherwise, space was quirky with personal 'lived in', artsy ora that my party and I were grateful to be accommodated in. <br/>

Victor prepared everything well, although we didn't get to meet him but instructions to the keys were fairly clear, and things are sufficient and smooth. It is very easy to get untidy in such a small area especially when we were a group of four, but I'm glad that we managed to leave the room as clean as what Victor provided us. Enjoyed the stay!

The house was fantastic for our family's Thanksgiving getaway!! Very clean and had all the facilities we needed.  The fireplace was a very welcome addition and made sitting and hanging out very enjoyable indeed!! The bedrooms were very comfortable and bathrooms great (so nice to have one each!).  Nicolo and their housekeeper were available to answer any questions immediately which was reassuring.  We'd definitely look to stay here again!!

Boston and airbnb at its best! Communication with John was great, the house is better, if anything, than the photos- very spacious and super clean. Beds are amazing, great cooking kitchen. Linens , towels all very high quality and super cozy living room. A classic Boston old world charming spot.
<br/>
<br/>Plenty of parking, great location. Check out Bay Sweets the Lebanese bakery and grocery just a mile up Center Street for some delicious house staples!
<br/>
<br/>We will stay again as we have family in town. And with two other units in the house this is a great rental for groups/families who want to stay together!
<br/>
<br/>5 star plus!

This apartment is great! I stayed here for two months with my wife and daughter. The apartment is in good shape and secure. The owner is a very nice person and always ready for advice and help!! The location is perfect with the beautiful Arnold Arboretum (which is a nice place to spend your family Sunday) across the street and the Jamaica Pond (nice for running) a couple of blocks away. Jamaica plain has a small but nice center with a bunch of nice shops and restaurants. With our daughter we spent a lot of time at the nice playground there. Public transport to Boston is OK but sometimes slow; for example, at 7am the bus to Longwood medical area takes about 15 minutes but during rush hour this can easily be 45 minutes. The orange line requires a short walk but provides a perfect connection to downtown Boston. We would definitely return to this place!

The flat is within a large well-managed building block with a very friendly reception. All interactions with the landlady, Anne, were very easy: Anne was highly responsive throughout. The heating situation in the flat is not ideal: it was cold at the begin of Autumn and rather warm and dry later  with no chance to regulate the temperature from within the flat other than by opening a single window that is not locked. The kitchen was equipped with everything I needed - a hairdryer in the bathroom would have been nice. The location of the flat is fantastic with everything in Boston in easy reach: was very happy there. Regarding the flat itself, it is a little bit more "run-down" than it looks on the photos, but overall very nice and charming. Washing machines are down the hallway and can be operated with either 7(!) quarters or a credit card...

Jacklyn and Joel made us feel very welcomed to their home! Their home is beautiful, very comfortable, and well-supplied!  They even supplied us with extra baking dishes and a bottle of wine when they knew that we were going to cook our Thanksgiving meal in their kitchen! It was easy to find, easy to get the key and check out.  The beds were comfortable and beautifully made up, and we had a great time playing board games, watching movies, and perusing their book collection! It IS a sunny, spacious and very clean home!

Apartment was wonderful! Newly renovated and clean as well as cozy. The location was superb, in the center of the North End and close to TD garden. Everything was ready for us upon arrival and Jose was quick to respond to texts when necessary.
<br/>Only issue was that Jose promised cheaper parking upon reservation and refused to pay for the difference when he no longer reserved a spot (about $12 more expensive to park per day). 
<br/>Overall, a wonderful stay in a great city.

We had a great time staying at Riyo's and her family's place and can totally recommend it. It is clean, new, has the perfect size to stay for a trip and is located just a few minutes away from the subway. Unfortunately we didn't met her personally, because we didn't want to disturb during thanksgiving celebration. She answered directly to my requests and we found snacks and some great and helpful recommondations for the neighbourhood from her in a book. Thank you for having us :)

It was a last minute trip. Glenn was very good helping us check in late. Apartment was great, had plenty of everything you would expect from upscale hotel and more. Keep in mind it's a very old building, but apartment is in excellent condition. Great area, nice restaurants for breakfast, lunch and dinner within walking distance.  Parking is tough, but very easy to get uber. Overall very good experience, loved Boston. Staying in this apartment definitely adds to Boston experience.

Everything was perfect.  I couldn't have asked for a better spot in the N End of Boston.  The location is perfect, in the shadow of the Old North Church, close to the restaurants and all that Hanover St has to offer, but far enough away (1 block) to allow an authentic and private experience of the historical residential area.  There is a cafe on the corner that serves hot sandwiches and coffees.  So perfect, I woke up in the morning, walked out the door and down a short alley in pursuit of a cappuccino while the bells of the Old North Church rang as back ground music.  The apartment itself was on the first floor, easy to get into, bed was very comfortable, the kitchen has everything you need, bathroom is clean.  The exposed brick wall and timber beams on the ceiling also helped to create the feeling of going back in time.  I no complaints on this location and the host was fantastic to work with.

I stayed at the place for 3 nights and everything was exactly as described. When you book your stay here, you will get a really nice welcome and Polly really excels in making you feel welcome. Although I arrived late, everything was arranged perfectly. What is more, you will find a fridge full of beverages for your free usage. Add this to a nice breakfast that is freshly prepared every morning and a bathroom which is well stocked with everything necessary and you can't ask for a better Airbnb experience in my view. I thoroughly enjoyed my stay there and would definitely recommend the place!

Jennifer is a great host. Her hospitality is amazing. She does her best to make her guests feel at home in her beautiful house. I really loved staying at her place. She did not only treat me as a guest, but also as a friend and family. She is nice, warm, caring, thoughtful, and generous. She willingly offers help whenever she can and gives great tips about activities or places to see in the area. She is also a good cook and she shared food with us. I enjoyed dinner time when we shared food and held interesting conversations with one another. Her house is located in a quiet and safe neighborhood and is close to public transportation and village shops. It is clean, spacious, and comfortable. I especially liked the big and nice bathroom and kitchen. If I return there someday, I would choose to stay in her house again.

Miriam was an exceptionally welcoming host. I am grateful that she allowed me to check in very early in the morning after a long red-eye flight across the country. The whole apartment was impeccably clean. The bed was very warm, clean, and comfortable. The kitchen is a full kitchen with several extra amenities like a teapot, coffeemaker, and toaster. The fridge came with fresh bagels, cream cheese, and juice for breakfast. The bathroom was stocked with plenty of clean towels, shampoo, conditioner, toothpaste, mouthwash, etc. I would highly recommend her place for anyone visiting Boston!

I really enjoyed my week staying in Jessica's house. Communication before the trip was easy, even at the last minute as my flight had a 4 hour delay. The house is lovely, retaining a 19th century feeling, but with everything you need, the bed is comfortable, the top floor shower is great (I didn't try the other one), and there are 2 guitars ! And Jessica is a delightful and thoughtful host, with lots of helpful advice, interesting conversations, and delicious tea at any hour of the day or night. The neighbourhood is peaceful though with enough shops and restaurants to be able to get food by foot, and the T is just far enough to work up an appetite for a McKenna american breakfast and then its a quick trip into Boston.

Jonathan was super friendly and made checking-in a breeze. The place is amazingly efficient at being small and reminded me of an IKEA ad. I fell in love with the place and it's use of space and even booked for another week as my work schedule was to keep me in Boston longer. Parking was always easy to grab within one block for free although I lucked out as my work schedule fit with the street cleaning parking rules. Highly recommended and plan to stay here more in the future.

Maria Elena and Martine were great hosts. They made sure everything was fine and communication was easy, also using the whiteboard since I was away often. The apartment is a very nice private space with a great view from the deck. Perfect for sunny mornings, and against the December cold in the apartment, the heaters provided were very efficient. It's close to the T and still out of the busy city which I enjoyed a lot. It allowed me to get some sleep as well as work done during a busy week of conference. Maria Elena was also kind enough to let me leave my luggage in the apartment on my last day and come back in the evening only, shortly before my flight. Would recommend!

We are both coaches and we brought a team of 10 athletes from around the Country for a tour of Boston.  It served as a great Team House  in our goal of Team Building.  The dining room table served as a great place for team dinners and group games/homework station.    Healthy fruit/veggie store was a block away and a great neighborhood restaurant (Corrib Irish Pub/Restaurant) hosted our final night in town.

Moment mémorable les 4-5 décembre 2015.
<br/>Escapade à Boston pour l'anniversaire d'un ami.
<br/>
<br/>Facilement rejoignable, Jose nous a accommodé lors de notre arrivé. Je n'avais pas encore foulée le bitume de cette petite ruelle que j'étais séduite. L'appartement était tel qu'espéré et le quartier South End tout à fait charmant sans parler des expressos...
<br/>Les bostonnais, contrairement à ce que j'avais entendu était facile d'approche et ouvert à l'autre. On s'y sens bien, tans près de l'eau, à qq pas de l'appartement ou plus en direction sud-ouest. Aussi bien, le trajet que les destinations nous on fait vivre des petits bonheurs...la vie quoi!
<br/>Deux adresses :
<br/>*Bobby from Boston, 19 Thayer St. Ma. (vêtements Vintage)
<br/>**William Carlton, 148 Salem St. Ma. À deux pas de l'appartement. Steve Finch jeune chapelier avec une vielle âme, travaille avec son ami Max Levy dans cette petite boutique sortie tout droit des années 1940 nommé au nom de son grand-père. Passer les voir et n'oublier pas de saluer Bentley.
<br/>
<br/>Merci Jose

Perfect Airbnb for explorers. Park your luggage and start adventuring.<br/>The location alone is incredible. You can literally see The Old North Church from your pillow. My wife and I walked everywhere we wanted to go. Wether it was history or shopping, you can do it all from this place.<br/>After your long day of history, shopping, eating, you can grab groceries from the 7/11 or grab excellent pastries from Mike's Pastries and chill.<br/>I enjoyed the sleek, modern style and unique parts of this awesome apartment. Strongly recommend this to anyone looking to stay right in the middle of all of our nation's history.

I loved staying at Phyllis' place. The house is so charming and full of "treasures". My room was just perfect and the bed so comfortable.  The neighborhood is quiet. The commute to downtown took about 45mn. It was easy and I did not mind.
<br/>As for Phyllis, she's such a great host. Radiant, warm, welcoming, generous, open and so helpful. Even though she's engaging she knows how to give you space.  She also makes amazing cookies (no jokes). She even picked me up at the airport. What a great and easy way to connect and get settled.  I would definitely stay at Phyllis' next time I'm in Boston and I've recommended her to many of the people I met during my training.

Jay's place is very neat, clean and convienience. The location is very good, near subway redline/blueline, only 5mins walking. but you can go on foot to most of the location such as Fanueil Hall, Boston common,... We def. will suggest Jay's place to our friends and will book again when visit next time.

This is a nice place. Not huge, but larger than a hotel room, with a kitchen. M was very accommodating. This is in a great Back Bay location - easy walking distance to do many things. The next time I'm in Boston, I'm going to ask M to stay there again. Thanks M!

Natalia was a wonderful host, even before we arrived she was making sure we would have everything we needed. When we got there, we were taken aback. The place was beautiful. The beds were all nicely made, and the house was decorated just enough to be tasteful. There was everything we needed there, to a point we only needed to bring our own clothes and toothbrushes. The location was also very convenient, almost a straight shot to Ashmont which will take you straight into downtown Boston. I would stay with Natalia again in a heartbeat! Its too bad we can only give 5 stars because I would definitely give her a 7 out of 5

I was in Boston for work and had my housing (with a friend) situation fall-through last minute. Lori let me book late in the afternoon on the night I needed lodging (amazing and life-saving) and I stayed at her house for two nights while I worked out of my company's Boston/JP office. It was amazing! It was so nice to come back to some space to hang out and relax after a long work day and the bed was super comfy. Lori even left some breakfast snacks and coffee for me as well as a T-Pass. I'll stay with Lori again and would highly recommend it! Thanks!

Valerie and Jason were friendly, welcoming hosts. Extremely prompt with communication with booking. Even though they weren't on-site at the time of my check in, they called and messaged me to make sure I was situated. Cozy, clean home away from home. They also provide breakfast in the morning. Just 2 stops away from downtown Boston by subway. Plenty of street parking too.
<br/>The only small inconvenience is that the bathroom is on the 1st floor, and the bedroom on the 3rd - if you're afraid of disturbing everyone in the middle of the night to use it like I am!
<br/>But couldn't have asked for a better stay! Would definitely recommend!

Nous n'avons pas rencontrés Jay mais il a toujours été très disponible par message et a répondu très rapidement à toutes nos questions.
<br/>L'appartement était parfait, tout à fait conforme à la description.
<br/>Le quartier était très agréable et calme, avec plusieurs possibilités pour trouver à manger à proximité (supermarché bio, resto mexicain, italien...).
<br/>L'appartement est situé près d'un arrêt de métro, il est facilement accessible depuis l'aéroport et permet de rejoindre facilement la gare en métro.
<br/>Nous nous sommes déplacés la plupart du temps à pieds car le quartier était très central.
<br/>Nous avons adoré Boston et cet appartement était parfait pour découvrir cette magnifique ville.
<br/>Les lits sont très confortables, l'appartement est spacieux et agréable.

We had a great time staying at Cindy and Mark's place. It has everything you would need and is very well located in the North End. We had an issue with the heating and they were very responsive and helpful. Just one point which may not be visible in the photos, the apartment does not have doors on rooms eg bedroom. This was not a problem per se but in our case our baby slept in the bedroom and we couldn't close off the room to reduce noise from the kitchen etc.

This was our first Airbnb experience and these hosts made it even more enjoyable and pleasant. Kasia and Adrian were phenomenal hosts during our stay in Boston. Their home was very cozy. They made check-in very easy and both welcomed us upon arrival. Meeting them was an absolute pleasure; they were very genuine and accommodating. They even went out of their way and offered to give us a small  tour around downtown Boston. Beyond that, they had the apartment fully furnished and livable with snacks and water in the fridge and a few microwaveable meals. <br/>The location is in a quiet neighborhood away from the center of the city, but walking distance to the subway, which is only 2 stops away - very convenient! <br/>We were so appreciative of Kasia and Adrian's hospitality. We definitely recommend this place to anyone wanting to stay in Boston and would definitely stay here again in the future.

Staying at Tiffany's home was the best Airbnb experience to date! She was extremely organized and helpful leading up to the stay, providing a complete guide to the house, as well as parking. The main apartment had a fully stocked kitchen in which we were able to whip up great dinners and breakfasts. The accommodations were super comfortable and the space felt very homey. Everyone in my group raved about the place. Location-wise, the T at Broadway (red line) was less than a ten minute walk and there were tons of restaurants and bars also less than ten minutes away. Don't hesitate to make a weekend out of staying here!

Our schedule got fouled up by forces having nothing to do with this host. And the host made adjustments so it seemed like nothing at all had happened.  That was a welcome relief.

<br/>The apartment was tidy and is situated within easy walking distance of many restaurants and bars, as well as Boston Symphony Hall.  I took the free Silver Line bus in from Logan to South Station and walked over in about 25 minutes. Super convenient. Cab ride back to Logan (MetroCab) was super easy and about $18 on the meter.

<br/>Il y a même le nécessaire pour se faire un petit déjeuner et un café !

Jonathan is the epitome of an ideal host: accommodating, communicative, informative and welcoming. His home and listings couldn't be more comfortable and aesthetically pleasing.

This was not a rental for me but for 3 of our foreign employees who were coming into Boston to meet at our office for 2 weeks. In any event, I was the one who made the reservation. 
<br/>
<br/>The house was in impeccable condition when I arrived a few hours before our employees to leave some breakfast food, and I was pleasantly surprised to see that Jacklyn and her husband had also left some food, including a bottle of "welcome wine".   The beds were all good with folded towels left on each one. A spacious living room and dining room.  Everything very clean. Good WIFI, AppleTV, etc.  It's the kind of place anybody could feel comfortable staying in during an extended visit.  
<br/>
<br/>Early into the stay, Jacklyn contacted me to tell she was offering an extra cleaning service mid-way through the stay, seeing as it was 2 weeks, and when would it be convenient for our guests? I like that she wanted to be helpful but not impose.  
<br/>
<br/>Also, although the dishwasher stopped working the day before our guests arrived, Jacklyn got it replaced very quickly and a new one was installed and functioning by the second day of our rental. 
<br/>
<br/>The location of this home is very convenient.  Walk to the left or right of the house for five minutes and you get to an excellent supermarket (Whole Foods to the right, BFresh to the left).  Walk 5 minutes to the left and you are at the Green Line (B line) or at one of many bus stops on Harvard Avenue -- where you can get into downtown Boston in 20 minutes or Cambridge in 15. Walk 10 minutes and you are in the heart of Coolidge Corner in Brookline, where you can find a ton of sophisticated restaurants, or go 15 minutes and you are in the heart of student-oriented food and entertainment (including at least 1/2 a dozen live music clubs).  
<br/>
<br/>You won't be disappointed staying here.

I spent two nights at Jonathan's home in Boston and had a wonderful time. Although Jonathan wasn't around when I arrived, he left very clear and easy instructions for obtaining the keys and finding my way to my room. Parking is readily available usually right out front. His house is beautiful, everything is very clean, neat, and modern. The room was prepared in advance with towels, a pitcher of water and a glass, and some guides to the area among other miscellaneous convenience items.

Paul's place is fabulous! Tasteful decor, ideal location, immaculately clean - truly an incredible value. Paul was quick to respond to any questions and checking in and out was easy. I stayed there for a couple of days while on a business trip and was so comfortable - Whole Foods and a drug store were just a two-minute walk away, and a great restaurant and brewhouse, Tip Tap Room, was also right down the street. A convenient MBTA stop by the river, and Boston Commons a few blocks the other direction. One day I took a nice walk through the Commons and down Newbury Street - totally delightful. Once back at the cozy and quiet apartment, you've got a big jacuzzi bathtub waiting for you, a solid internet connection, an extremely comfortable bed, soft cotton robes to lounge in, a Keurig coffee maker w/ plenty of tea and coffee pods, chilled water bottles in the fridge, and even some apples and little snack packs of baked goldfish crackers. There is no doubt in my mind where I am staying the next time I'm in Boston. Thank you again, Paul - I'm looking forward to coming back!!

To sum up, go for Jay's AirBnB!

I work in Boston and stayed at Victors apartment for ~20 days before moving to another city. Victor was a great host! He stuffed the fridge with beer, water, and even prepared snacks that I like! The apartment is small but space is used very efficiently with furnitures optimized for small space living, so the place does not feel cramped at all! I think Victor made most of the furnitures himself...very impressive. There are also lots of details in the apartment that I liked, eg. interesting pictures allover the walls of the apartment, hanging tin buckets everywhere, bathroom wall artistically covered with book pages as wall paper. The kitchen is small and simple and not for lots of cooking, but has essentials to make simple food. I love that he has a kruegur coffee maker, and even coffee pods in one of the tin buckets so I get can caffeinated without getting out of the house. In the winter the place is a bit cold, especially on the couch near the window, but there is a heater that warms up the space efficiently. As for the Allston neighborhood, lots of students live here, so it is has a good mix of hip and cheap shops a short walk away to cater people of different needs.

My partner and I stayed with Lisa for two nights in funky JP. Her space is cozy and very welcoming, exactly as described. We were able to walk to everything in the area and check out all that JP has to offer. Lisa has an exceptional tea shelf which helped to warm us up from the December cold! We we're able to gain great suggestions on food/shopping/travel from herself and friends. We will be sure to come back to explore some more come summer! Thanks Lisa!!

This was the best service i've had in my longest memory. Everything was as described and the room was clean organized and pleasant. All amenities are brand new and the bed was soft and comfortable. The location was a perfect distance to transportation and access to other areas of interest such as restaurants, supermarkets, cafes was in easy access.

Everything about the space was wonderful.  Clean, high quality finishes and very comfortable.  Easy to get to which is saying something in Boston!   Katarzyna was super steady to get in contact with and answered almost immediately.  I would highly recommend her place and we will use it again on our next trip!

Huggy is a really nice and friendly. He provided full bedding and some kitchen equipment when I arrived. When I left, he gave me a lift to the train station. He really tries to make your stay as enjoyable as possible. There was no kitchen table when I arrived, Huggy quickly organized one after we asked for one. 
<br/>The place itself is mostly quiet because everyone is running on very different schedules. The price for the room was cheap compared to other offers and even though the area is not very popular, I never had any trouble.
<br/>To reach the city, as there is no T-station around, you need to take a bus. Even though, there is no schedule for the busses, I never had to wait longer than 15min because there are 3 lines running in the same direction. 
<br/>One thing you need to know is that there is no laundry facitilites in the house. The get to the next laundry you need to take a bus which takes about 10 minutes. If you plan to stay longer, you should consider that it takes some time to get your laundry done. 
<br/>Except from that I can clearly recommend the place.

I stayed at Deborah’s for two months and a half during my research period at Boston University as a Fulbright scholar. Being my first experience in the U.S., and from an ethnographic perspective, her colourful place and one-of-a-kind personality represented a privileged entry point into some of the most characteristic features of the American life. I had the chance of spending there, with her and my Australian housemate, some special moments such as Halloween with a cornucopia of candy for the ‘trick or treat’ ritual, ornamental pumpkins and costumes; a pre-Thanksgiving family dinner when Deborah made excellent use of her well-equipped kitchen by serving stuffed chicken and traditional side dishes; Thanksgiving at her sister’s historical barn in Ipswich, where I enjoyed a delicious meal with a barnyard turkey at the centre of it; the setting up and decoration of a beautiful and authentic Christmas tree in the sitting room; without mentioning the football game at the Harvard Stadium and, even more fun, the preceding tailgating. We also happened to share several casual, unplanned dinners and bottles of wine; as well as conversations over my understanding (and misunderstanding) of Americanness and other funny human interactions. Deborah has always been generous in sharing her opinions, perceptions, and support. Profound prophecies based on her expertise in astrology have turned out to be true! Looking at the New World from this unique place has certainly provided me with stimulating insights into new manners and forms of humanity. You will find your second home here if you feel in an open-minded, exploratory and sharing mood, if you look for a place full of reminiscences, if you want to grasp the inner soul and shades of entire life histories. This is a fully lived-in house, with benevolent presences appearing at times to replace bulbs and fix locks and windows, and intense memories of past and present adventures. If you feel minimal and uncommitted, or like to stay on your own with very limited interaction and absolute privacy, you are going to miss a very great deal of the house and of its owner’s character, then maybe better to opt for an undecorated room elsewhere. The place is within walking distance of Boston College, one of the most fascinating campuses in Boston; 40 minutes from Copley and Harvard Square; and only a 25 minutes bus ride from Boston University. The house is situated in a friendly neighbourhood - I was greeted by people the second time we met, and this is certainly something quite rare when compared to the rest of the city. I could enjoy the blessing of a tiny fresh fruit and vegetable shop in Brighton centre, as well as a couple of good Irish pubs, tempting biscuits and cakes at the local pastry shop, and a well-furnished liquor store in the vicinity of the house. Being an insatiable reader and a mildly enthusiastic shopper, towards the end of my stay I would have appreciated some additional space in the room in order to accomodate...

Terrific stay!  A well appointed, spacious apartment that is exactly as described.   An ideal location in which to see all of the Boston sites on foot and/or via the train.   Grocery and other stores are within walking distance, as are a variety of pubs and restaurants.  Would highly recommend a morning trip to the Grasshopper Cafe which is literally right around the corner.  Additionally, the hosts are fully available without being intrusive.  This flat is totally worth consideration!!

Our host's caretaker met us early so we could drop off luggage--they were very accommodating. The location was EXCELLENT! Close to many historical points--only two blocks to the Old North Church. Also close to TD (formerly Boston) Garden, lots of Italian restaurants, and much more. You can look out the window to see "Old Ironsides" and the Bunker Hill Memorial across the river.
<br/>
<br/>Apartment was clean, modern, and had more than enough room for two, with separate beds (using the convertible sofa). Neighborhood seemed safe and quite, other than the street construction currently active during the day.
<br/>
<br/>If I'm going to pick out anything negative to say it would only be these two very minor details:
<br/>1. We figured it out soon enough, but the first walk down the stairs of the shared hallway in the dark was treacherous. Then we found the light, literally, so no problems. Would be helpful to point that out during check-in.
<br/>2. There was no cable TV, just off the air local stations. I had no problem with that--we weren't there to watch TV--but my son was a bit disappointed.

The apartment in East Boston was clean and sunny as described.  Checking in and out was very easy because of lock box.  We had no problems so we did not have to contact Gavin during our stay. Apartment very convenient to airport and East Boston is an interesting neighborhood to explore.  We have relatives living nearby so the place was particularly convenient for us. The only thing I did not find was a coffee maker - which would have been nice to have.  But maybe it was there and I missed it. I would stay again on a future trip to Boston.

This review was written by Namik my friend from Turkey, who stayed with Katharine and Scott:
<br/>I felt so welcome here, it was like a home. I've never stayed at an AirBNB before, so I couldnt believe how they made me feel part of their family... they even invited me to dinner. I like the way they think of the world, they have a real curiosity and were very interested in Turkish history...and I enjoyed time with their son. Scott makes a great breakfast, the house is very comfortable and close to the subway  into the city so I could come and go easily. I would be very happy to stay here again.

Jonathan is a great host and his suite is so pretty and nice. I stayed there for 4 days and had a great experience. Things are clean and artsy. Completely private. The low ceiling is not an issue at all. The place looks exactly like it is in the photos. It's closed to buses and orange line which can take you to anywhere in Boston. Highly recommend the place.

I arrived late and kept long hours, so I didn't meet the Carney family for a few days, but when we met they were warm and welcoming. The Carney home is in a picturesque neighborhood with public transportation less than a  10-minute easy walk away (no steep hills or dirt paths). 
<br/>I stayed in Andrea's room is spacious with an immaculate bathroom and convenient closet. It's so large, there is also a cozy sitting area with a view of the waterfront.  
<br/>The added bonuses: Barney's delectable muffins each morning, 24-hour access to coffee and tea, complete kitchen access, and laundry. 
<br/>Their house has all the energy, vibrancy, and warmth of a family home, truly.

Barrie and his family were delightful hosts. I had a long stay -- about five and a half weeks -- and while I was a bit nervous about sharing a home with people I did not know for that long, I was pleasantly surprised by their hospitality. I have just recently moved to Boston from Minnesota with the start of a new job and knew very little about living in Boston, but Barrie's family made me feel very welcome in their home, which helped minimize other stresses of moving across the country. They even invited me to join them for Thanksgiving dinner, which I really appreciated since I was so far away from home, family, and friends.
<br/>
<br/>I am generally a very private person, and I felt that my privacy was respected. I had a room in the basement level of their home, neighboring two other short-term Airbnb guests, and could enter and leave the home freely through a back door. I shared a bathroom in the lowest level with the two other guests, but there were other bathrooms available in the home if needed. I am an avid cook, and while cooking utensils and pans were limited, I was able to make meals for myself as needed (and was even given a cupboard and fridge shelf to store my ingredients).
<br/>
<br/>Their home is a 5-minute walk to a bus stop that will take you directly to Forest Hills station in less than 10 minutes. There is also a grocery store, Walgreens, and dollar store that is a 15-minute walk away. It is also close to Roslindale Village, where you'll find cute boutiques and Fornax Bread Company (a popular bakery). I'm a runner, and it's also easy access to the Harvard Arnold Aboretum as well as Jamaica Pond.
<br/>
<br/>I highly recommend Barrie for any long-term stay.

Our stay at Victor's place was amazing!
<br/>As said, the apartment is tiny, but it is fully functional and really pleasant to live in. It was clean and Victor leaved us some food in the fridge in case we were hungry when we arrive.
<br/>Also, it is really greatly situated with the subway at 2 minutes by foot. The neighbourhood is cute and is not too far from Harvard if you want to visit it (walk of 25 minutes).
<br/>Check in and check out were easy to do and Victor is really a cool and sympathetic host! He was also easy to reach by email during our stay.
<br/>We'll certainly stay again in Victor's apartment if we return in Boston.
<br/>Thanks again for your kindness!

Terry found the perfect accommodation for our stay in Boston. The beautiful Christmas wreath and flag at the door made our welcome inviting and this continued as we came inside to a warm home which was beautifully decorated and very comfortable. The 5 of us all had plenty of space and this home had everything we needed in the bedrooms, bathrooms, kitchen and laundry. There was also a useful folder of information. This home is full of interest and history and, although not in the heart of Boston, made a great base. Having wifi and netflix was a bonus with teenagers.
<br/>Thanks Terry for a very relaxing and interesting place - a perfect first experience with airbnb

Susie's place was perfect! My partner and I were moving to Boston and needed a temporary place to stay while we looked for a permanent apartment. We stayed at Susie's for four weeks. The place was home and felt like home for those four weeks. We had everything we needed and whenever we saw Susie, she wanted to know how everything was and whether we needed anything - she's a super host and such a caring person.
<br/>The kitchen is fully equipped, the beds are comfortable, the place is clean, the water pressure is good in the shower, the apartment is private and cozy, and the location is great. Susie is also very mindful of safety, and the place has multiple smoke detectors and fire escape ladders (she even bought a new three story ladder for the bathroom while we were there) - she takes her guests' safety seriously.
<br/>The place is close to just about anything you'd want or need - all within walking distance (we did not have a car, though there are multiple Zipcar locations within a couple of blocks). I was working in the Financial District and took the T to work each morning. The T stop is very convenient, only a short walk away. The train ride to work was only 18 minutes. JP is a cool neighborhood with lots of friendly folks. We fell in love with Galway House (Bar & Restaurant) on Centre Street, and even became sort of regulars there - good place, good food, good people, good prices.
<br/>
<br/>Thank you Susie for making our stay so enjoyable and comfortable! You made our arrival in Boston a wonderful experience.

We stayed here for our Christmas holiday and it was wonderful! Boston is a great town and the location of Jacklyn and Joel's house is a short train or uber ride away from historic downtown Boston. We stayed with out two kids and having a large place to stretch out, be able to cook meals, do laundry etc was a great way to save money and travel light. The apartment is stocked with everything you need and Jacklyn is close by if you need anything. We will definitely be back!

I feel so conflicted about this Airbnb. The space is lovely. The carpeted, narrow stairs lead to a warm, comfortable living space on the top two floors. The kitchen is especially nice; it feels larger than it looks and was equipped with everything we needed. The bedrooms are roomy, especially the king bedroom which has several chairs, a loveseat in the corner, and an old stereo that still works somewhat well (the radio, but not the CD player). The bathrooms are clean and had just enough toilet paper for us, something I consider an Airbnb must! The neighborhood wasn’t a place to hang but didn’t feel particularly unsafe, and we loved the short walk to the train.
<br/>
<br/>Terry is very kind and was good at responding to our problems but wasn’t as effective when it came to solving them. When we first arrived, he was helpful in getting us inside, and he took care of a mysterious orange liquid in the basement (where the laundry is located). Unfortunately, our bigger issues were ongoing, the first of which was 8-5 construction happening in the adjacent unit. Terry hadn’t let us know about this, and it may bother most guests, but for us nighttime workers, this wasn’t a great fit. There were ladders, saws, and coffee cups left on our front step. There was also an animal in the walls of the king-size bedroom that woke me up at 6:30a every day. When he got into the ceiling, my friend in the next bedroom would hear it too. I asked Terry about it the first week but no one ever came to check it out. Lastly, Terry asked us on Dec 22 if we could move out “on Thursday” (Christmas Eve) because a booking had come in “a while ago” (I had booked in August) and we could move back “the next day” (Christmas). He offered a space across the street. I insisted that this was too much for us, so he consented to let us stay, but it was exasperating and disappointing to feel unwanted.
<br/>
<br/>Overall, this place is nice enough for you to roll the dice! I hope it was just a weird combination of circumstances that diminished our experience.

Unfortunately I am unable to give a positive review of our stay over Christmas at Gloria's place.  When my family of five arrived from CA there was no heat on the upper floor of the apartment at all (and wasn't fixed for two days). Gloria doesn't live close by so my husband had to do all the coordination with letting the heat guy in and out of the building.
<br/>
<br/>The house was minimally furnished, almost like someone had moved out and just left the beds and a couple of couches. Acres of empty bookshelves, only one bedside table in all of the four bedrooms, arms of chairs and couches in the living room were loose.  There were no blankets on any of the beds (only light summer comforters). Gloria did go out and buy blankets after we asked. There was no light in the narrow, steep stairs between the floors and it never did get fixed while we were there. The apartment was pretty dirty, despite contacting Gloria ahead of time after reading other reviews. The kitchen is very basically outfitted, with mismatched silverware and only a few cooking pots.   We also discovered all the smoke detectors tossed in a cabinet and a moldy bowl of popcorn in the kitchen.   Lastly, after we left we got a very rude text about putting the trash out incorrectly when we had received no specific instructions on recycling cardboard.
<br/>
<br/>Overall, I cannot agree with the listing description that describes the place as a "luxury apartment". My husband likened it to a grand old lady who had seen better days...
<br/>
<br/> Gloria seemed a bit defensive and it felt like every question we had, or thing we requested, she took personally. 
<br/>
<br/>The single plus (and it is a big one) is that the location is very good, near Boston Common and Charles St. restaurants and shops. 
<br/>
<br/>Hopefully Gloria will spend some time cleaning,  furnishing and outfitting this lovely old place more completely, it really could be fabulous.
<br/>
<br/>We detailed our experience to Airbnb with pictures and they provided us with a nice travel credit. Very good customer service.

Marc was a wonderful host! He was traveling while we were in town but made sure we had everything we needed and a way to contact him should we need to! The space is wonderful - cozy, clean, bright and airy! We had extra toiletries and pillows and blankets should need them as well.  We had no problem parking, and the house is close to I90 and Soldiers Field Road -- both of which can get you to where you need to go.  The 64 bus also runs right by the house in case we didn't want to drive in Boston.  Oak Square is close by and offers coffee, nail salons, delis, restaurants, bars, convenience stores, and a Y! Have bookmarked Marc's place and will definitely rent from him again!

<br/>
<br/>If you have a lot of baggage or are planning a stay of more than a few days, this place may not be the best choice as it is quite small and there is no closet, table, or couch and only one small chair.

Alex's place was perfect, finding it was a little difficult but once I found the place and got inside I had no words. The apartment was stunning. The area was fairly quiet, either that or the apartment was isolated enough to drown out any noise from outside! I loved the feeling of being there, Alex was a great host, he even told me about 2 apps I've never even heard of before! I feel so in with technology now! The first snow of the season also arrived during my stay, which I gladly faced as I've never been in Boston when it snowed! The purpose of my trip ended well, and I'm so glad Alex was so accommodating and patient with my cluelessness! We even spoke of a potential extra night of me staying should the weather become severe, and he also called me at night to make sure I made it home safe, I've never had a more pleasant host than Alex, honestly. He's the best! I would 100% use his place again

I reserved this space for my father who was coming to visit from Europe. It couldn't have been a more pleasant experience from the second we booked to when he left. The house is exactly as described and Penny was a joy to work with.

She was a good host who was helpful with many details including hunger quenching  breakfast food, directions for the trip and tips for amenities around the house. The neighborhood was perfect for a family and the house was exactly as described. The cats were wonderfully friendly and low maintenance. All around the house was very clean and cozy.

Lori was a great host, very friendly and welcoming. It was a very "charming apartment" - exactly as described. The place was cute and comfortable with everything we needed to have a fun visit in Boston and great place to stay.
<br/>
<br/>The apartment was conveniently located near our friends in Roxbury. Its a little ways outside the center of Boston, but it was relatively easy to get into downtown Boston on the T and by car.
<br/>
<br/>overall, a great place!

We had a great time in Hilary's little house. She warmly welcomed us with tons of tourist information which is very useful, and let us have some free tea and coffee. She even made brunch for us! The house is close enough to the train station, and the neighborhood Jamaica Plain is the coolest area in Boston (like Williamsburg in NYC). One thing I should let the other guests know is that the room is pretty small so if you have more than two large suitcases, it might be difficult to fit them in(We had one big and one normal suitcase and it was already full). But overall, I can strongly recommend her house of your stay in Boston!

The accommodation was very clean and calm. My room was very spacious and the notable thing about the home is the old style high ceiling which brought a Victorian style look to the home. Lot of face towels and bath towels were provided and they were clean. Breakfast had good options and I now understand why all other guests wrote so much about their cupcakes- they were delicious! Barney was very helpful and as I was new to the town, he asked what I was looking for and took time to find long term accommodation options for me. He thoroughly explained me rental options at different places in the city. He took care of helping me with the heater operating in my room. As I was there during busy week days, I didn’t get much time to catch up with the family. I had to check out one day before my actual date and I informed the same to Barney. Though I didn’t expect or want them to refund the amount, they did! Very professional and friendly people.  I will definitely choose this home when I need a stay in the surroundings. My first time in Airbnb accommodation and I totally liked the experience.

The house was recently renovated and the public transportation to downtown was fast and easy, taking around 30 minutes. Rapidly developing Dudley Station was a convenient transportation hub. A shopping area with a super market was just around the corner as well.
<br/>
<br/>I was impressed that all the other housemates were highly-professional individuals. They were mature and friendly, studying or working in downtown or Longwood medical area. Not everyone seemed to reside there full time and the apartment was quiet.
<br/>
<br/>If you want a clean and safe place with good transit, this house will be an excellent choice.

Liesl is your consulate host! She was a great communicator as we made our way through the reservation process, she went above and beyond her call of duty in shopping for me so that we would have some grocery items in the fridge since we arrived to Boston on Christmas Eve and things would be closed on Christmas. 
<br/>The apartment lives up to it's name and is truly sensational. She had left us her 'homemade' granola...delicious and appreciated!
<br/>I loved that she had left so many touches that I enjoy;clean and comfortable is always at the top of my list and her apt was both, beautiful white towels, the master bedroom had a very comfortable tempur-pedic mattress and great storage in both bedrooms, each room had a luggage rack which I love and unbelievably so many hosts don't include in their guests rooms. The apt had a W/D which is always a godsend when you accidentally spill something on your favorite shirt or whatever your need for it might be, having that is a true plus for a week long stay. Liesl has truly made her apt feel like a home away from home.

I stayed at Laura's studio for around two months and absolutely LOVED it! I cannot rave enough about this place; it has been my favourite Airbnb stay to date. The studio is exactly as described and pictured - clean, beautifully decorated, functional, fully equipped kitchen, and it's a perfect, cozy size for one person or a couple. Laura is an amazing host who makes you feel right at home from the start, and she is frequently around the building and always tries to help in any way she can or give some recommendations whenever she runs into you. Another amazing thing about this studio is the location. There are so many great restaurants nearby, and its in walking distance to so many great places. I run in the mornings and this location was perfect for discovering Boston during my morning runs! Highly, highly recommended for all aspects. I'm so glad I found this studio! Thank you Laura for a wonderful stay!

Victor's place is amazing. It is a studio and yet it can fit in so much. It is creatively decorated and it has everything you would need for a short or long stay in Boston. It is centrally located - close to the city, Harvard, Boston college, Boston university and restaurants and quite unique shops. He made our stay that extra special by asking what we liked to watch on Netflix and what we liked to eat and drink. When we arrived at the studio, there were the food, snacks and drinks that we liked and Victor had programmed his Netflix with shows we would like. I would not hesitate to recommend Victor's place. If I never need to return to the area, I would definitely rent Victor's place again. Best wishes to you Victor.

Jose was extremely helpful prior to the trip.  He answered questions about the flat, and even some before we booked.  He also offered us recommendations regarding parking and offered to help in any way he could.

<br/>My wife and I use Airbnb frequently for travel, and this was one of the best reservations we've stayed in.  If you enjoy history at your doorstep, great restaurants, and easy access to the major attractions in the city, then you will enjoy staying here.  The freedom trail is literally on the sidewalk outside the door, and there are endless options for good places to eat within the surrounding area.  
<br/>
<br/>The accommodations in the apartment were great too.  It was clean, comfortable, and offered additional amenities like the kitchen that you would not have in a hotel.  
<br/>
<br/>We had an awesome time during our stay in Boston and I would highly recommend staying in this flat.

I had a great time in Barney's Master Suite. The house is indeed in a charming section of Boston. I was only there for a quick overnight and ran into Barney and Mary briefly as they were heading out, but all the preparation (emails, texts, clean open space with coffee, tea, granola, sitting area) made me feel right at home. Hopefully I'll get to stay longer on a future visit!

We loved our stay at Miriam and Hasban's studio. They made us feel so welcome, it was like we were staying with relatives! Hasban greeted us on arrival to show us around the studio and get us settled. The studio is in a great location, close to a Whole Foods and just a 10 minute walk to the station, which made it easy for us to explore around Boston. If you wanted to stay close to the studio, there are fantastic restaurants nearby; it's a great little area to explore. The studio was clean, amazingly comfortable and was perfect for our needs. We could not recommended here enough!

I loved staying at Jonathan's place! The apartment was very clean, homey, and cozy. Jonathan was also very welcoming. He made sure that I was having great time in Boston. The location of the apartment is very convenient, just 5 mins away from the subway station and bus station. I traveled alone and I did not have any problem with transportation since it was easy to use the public transportation. Laundry room is also included in the rent, which is great. I used the kitchen everyday and everything worked perfectly. the check in and check out process was easy. Overall my trip wouldn't be better if I didn't stayed here. It was like staying in my own home.

Elizabeth was welcoming from the very start. It was my boyfriend's birthday, and I wanted to do something special for him while we were both in Boston.  We could only stay for one night and noticed the suite was available for the one night we needed.  I messaged Elizabeth, and she happily lifted to 2 night stay minimum to accommodate our needs.  When we arrived, her friendly assistant greeted us and showed us around the suite. We enjoyed a yummy bottle of Prosecco and were blown away by the luxury and comfort of the space. All in all a wonderful night!

Glenn was very easy to communicate with and promptly responded to my emails and texts. He also worked with us when we had a change in plans for getting the keys. The place was in a great neighborhood and I felt safe. There are plenty of restaurants and bars within a ten minute walk in almost any direction. If you are looking for great breakfast sandwiches, take a nice 15 minute walk to Mike and Patty's. The apartment had nice upgraded features, with plenty of utensils and pots/pans to make meals. All of the beds were very comfortable. It was clean and cozy. The cross street has one side of 2 hr visitor parking M-F 8am - 6pm, so we were able to save some money over the weekend. I would stay here again and would recommend to my friends.

Kasia was a great host and her place was so perfect for our trip to Boston. The location is so close to the T making it easy to commute anywhere in the city. The location was also far enough from the busy heart of Boston that we were able to enjoy some peace and quite. Kasia was quick to respond to our needs and was kind when I accidentally set off the smoke detector when cooking bacon one morning!  The apartment has clearly been remodeled to accommodate travelers, she makes excellent use of the space with modern furnishings. The only negative thing for us was that the bed was too hard for our taste, which made our nights pretty restless.

The neighbourhood is lovely. We enjoyed meeting Mary but never met Barney. Their home is beautiful. The Airbnb is like a hotel / hostel with lots of people coming through which was a bit much for us - especially late in the evenings. We loved the local architecture and the historic home. Nice generous touches such as shampoo and body wash, a coffee machine with good pods on our floor (3 floors of rooms),lovely muffins each morning. Juice if you get to it in time, and some apples. The house is on the red line subway which got us to Harvard, the centre, the aquarium and close to the Kennedy museum. Very handy. Lovely area and friendly and helpful locals. The home has a basketball ring which our children loved each morning!  There are cleaners almost daily so the share bathroom and kitchen are always clean. Thanks!

Easy walk from Shawmut red-line station, even with luggage.  Neighborhood not very attractive but quiet.  Natalia was not there but very good about preparing me for getting-in to the building and was  responsive to my follow-up questions via text message.  Room was as-described.  Bedding and linens were excellent.  Place was pretty clean but bedroom and bathroom floor could have used a vacuum.  Room has old-fashioned steam radiator which was quite loud at times throughout the night, waking me up, but I did get some sleep.  House has at least 3 rentals but seems to have just 1 bathroom, shared by 6 people when I was there, so there was some unexpected waiting in the morning.  Overall, not a bad place if you're on a budget, but I have experienced bnb's of better value in Dorchester.

Phyllis provides a classic bed and breakfast experience, right down to the antique furniture, eclectic taste in art and creaking stair step.  There's cookies on a dish and a sleeping dog.   And although a hike from the 57 she's just steps from the 64 bus.

This was a great place (I stayed 3 nights, in Jan).  Rebecca was very responsive and easy to work with -- both while arranging the reservation, and while I was staying.  The room is just as described -- though actually feels bigger than appears in photos.  Bed very comfortable.  Very nice to have a desk to work at, and internet.  Appreciated the closet for my clothes, too.  Street parking was plentiful and easy -- right in front of house. Quiet neighborhood.  Rebecca was very welcoming and accommodating, and also sensitive to how much I wanted to interact.  A great place to stay.

Schon die herzliche Begrüßung durch Helen gab uns von Beginn das Gefühl willkommen zu sein. Bei Fragen oder Anliegen jeglicher Art war Helen immer erreichbar und konnte uns stets weiterhelfen. 
<br/>Das Apartment ist sehr schön eingerichtet, sauber und verfügt über eine sehr gut ausgestattete Küche. Die Beschreibung der Wohnung im Inserat ist absolut zutreffend.
<br/>Jamaica Plain ist ein ruhiges Wohngebiet mit guter Anbindung an die U-Bahn Station Forrest Hills, welche in 5 Gehminuten erreicht werden kann (Fahrtzeit nach Downtown 17 Minuten). 
<br/>Wir haben die Zeit bei Helen und Stuart sehr genossen und würden jederzeit wieder kommen.

First time using Airbnb and had an excellent experience! The place was very nice and as described. Also the location was perfect, very close to the train, the Boston Common and downtown. Host was helpful and had the second bed ready for us!
<br/>Highly recommended!

Tim was a great host. He met us the evening of our arrival with keys and gave us a quick tour. He was readily available to answer questions and to make our stay comfortable. The apartment was on a great location to shops, groceries, restaurants, transit and the central Boston area. We recommend staying at Tim's place when visiting historic Boston.

This is a very lovely place to stay. Lori could not have been more warm and welcoming to us. Our arrival time and Lori's time to be at home did not overlap, but she was easily accessible via texting if we had any questions when we checked in. Lori had left fresh fruit and chocolates to welcome us. The apartment is bright and comfortable, with a sizable bathroom and a very comfortable bed. Lori stocked the kitchen with more than plenty for breakfast, and coffee we could freshly grind. We only spent one night in Lori's home. The next time we are visiting our son in JP overnight, or even if we just need a place in Boston to stay, we will gladly stay here again! A comfortable, spotless, nicely furnished and decorated, warm and welcoming place to stay!

   Phyllis welcomed me to her exquisitely decorated town home. I Enjoyed a clean cozy room upstairs with a spacious bath across the hall. Everything was as expected or better. The fresh cookies were delicious. Fresh fruit salad was an extra treat with the continental breakfast.  The location was great and I would recommend and return Here

What a fantastic experience!  Jonathan is a very welcoming host, and showed me around the place as soon as I arrived.  His house is beautiful - everything looks modern and minimal, just as his pictures describe.  My room was quite large with plenty of closet space and hangers.  Most importantly, both the neighborhood and the house were quiet from the day I arrived until the day I left, but just minutes away from the hospital and T.  I would absolutely stay here again.

Our 4-night stay at the Boston Garden was wonderful! The unit is beautifully decorated with modern, high-end appliances and fixtures. It is extremely clean and very comfortable, particularly the bed. James  quickly responded to the few questions we had about the unit and also was kind enough to provide a recommendations for local restaurants. The biggest plus: a free parking space! If you've stayed in the Cambridge area, you know parking is at a premium. I will stay again with James and Pierre if I return the Cambridge area.

Had such a wonderful time staying here! Being from the Dorchester area  I know how loud/busy it can be but the house is located on the quietest dead end street. It was so peaceful, the bed was soo comfortable!! And the tub...AMAZING! Told polly we'd be staying for a stay-cation involving board games and such and she left us a small set up downstairs to play but also brought a card table up invade we wanted to play in the room. There were also some beverages in the fridge which was an unexpected treat. We will definitely be returning!!! Thanks!!!

L'appartement était exactement comme sur mes photos.<br/>L'organisation à été très claire et facile, il est simple de communiquer avec Paolo. Ralph nous a répondu promptement ce qui nous a facilité l'entrée dans le logement. <br/>L'accueil fût génial, la personne nous aillant remis les clefs était très sympa et nous a tout très bien expliqué en insistant qu'elle restait à notre disposition 24h sur 24.<br/>L'appartement est bien situé dans Boston, proche d'une station de métro et à seulement 10min en taxi de l'aéroport. <br/>Notre séjour fut agréable notamment grâce au studio. <br/>Seul hic le clic clac, en mode canapé il est très confortable, seulement une fois passé en mode lit le matelas est très fin, les ressorts vous massant le dos. Je le recommande pour 2 adultes sans soucis, pour 3 si vous êtes courageux pour le clic clac. ^^<br/>Mis à part cela l'appartement est très bien équipé, en somme une très bonne adresse !

The room is different from the current photos (January 2016). Instead of the twin bed and couch, there is a double bed plus a desk and chair. I liked this new arrangement, and found the room very comfortable. The bathroom was as pictured. 
<br/>
<br/>I stayed at the listing for a conference and it was very easy to travel to and from the convention center. I walked most mornings, and took a cab back in the evening. The neighborhood is quiet, and although there was someone else staying in the upper room they didn't bother me at all. 
<br/>
<br/>Dan was flexible with both my check in and check out time, and was very responsive when I had questions. I would happily stay here again for another convention in Boston.

I could not have a picked a better location than Tom's apartment for my stay in Boston. It was my first time visiting the city and the apartment is in walking distance to almost everything you would want to see in Boston. Restaurants, shops, and landmarks are only minutes away by foot. The apartment was in a great neighborhood and very spacious for 2 people and it can easily accommodate a third/fourth person.  I would stay here again and I would definitely choose this over the hotels.

Jill was a great host and responded to all of my queries very quickly. The space was accurately depicted and the bedroom was perfect for private stay. The bed was very comfortable, and the double shower heads was great. The house is located in a very convenient part of Jamaica Plain, with restaurants and convenience stores within walking distance of the address. With free street parking, I never had to worry about where I was going to park my car after returning from my Office. This was an ideal location for the length of my stay, and I would love to stay here again in the future.

Top notch luxury all the way! Remarkable amenities and the perfect location. Staying in this home made our first holiday in Boston an amazing one that will be cherished forever. Susan is an exceptionally gracious host who provided more than we could ever ask for. Her attention to detail made our stay unforgettable...literally anything that we could possibly need was already there in the penthouse. She provided stellar recommendations for sightseeing, dining, shopping, and nightlife. Would rate my overall experience 6 stars if it were available. Can't wait to return and will without a doubt book this lovely penthouse again and again.

Janet's studio was exactly as listed and was perfect for my stay.  I always look for clean and convenient and it was definitely that.  (Quiet too which was great.)

I would definitely stay in Janet's apartment again.

I chose Andrea's Private Bath in the Carney family's home because of its location on the first floor, and I wanted an in-room bath. I was delighted with this large, cheerful, colorful room. (It's been painted since this photo was taken.) The bed is comfortable, and I took full advantage of the lounge chairs for work. The house had ample parking for my rental vehicle, and is within walking distance of the metro. The Carneys were quickly responsive to my needs and inquiries, and the neighborhood is quiet and charming. I had full use of the clean, well-equipped kitchen and the sitting room. Juice, coffee, tea, fruit, milk, cereal and muffins were provided at all hours. It was like staying with friends, but still having my privacy. I will stay here whenever my business takes me to Boston.

Victor's place  well designed. The space is great for one person and is a little tight for two people, but its no problem if you are close with the other person.

Terry was a great host - he waited to greet me outside and show me in even though I arrived late at night.  He showed me a map and explained how to get to the subway and where I needed to go.  
<br/>
<br/>The apartment was a beautiful and spacious studio - well decorated, comfortable, and with Boston charm.  There is a spacious kitchen which may be useful because there are not a ton of food options in the immediate area. 
<br/>
<br/>The neighborhood was quiet and residential.  The T station is less than a 5 minutes walk away, and Uber taxis were also an easy and affordable option.

Staying at the Carney Family's very well appointed Victorian B&B makes me want to come back to Dorchester/Boston, just to enjoy another stay at this lovely house in a great location.  Having been an innkeeper and B&B owner in southern Vermont for 7 years, this is how a B&B should be run for guests to have a memorable and positive experience.  Barney's Master Bedroom was so comfortable and spacious that I had a difficult time leaving today:) 
<br/>
<br/>It was perfect for me as I appreciated the privacy of my bedroom, but the common area, including the living room and the well-stocked kitchen with delicious breakfast items. Mary's home-made granola and Barney's home-made breakfast muffins were most delicious.
<br/>
<br/>Next time when I'll be in town for a conference, to visit Harvard University (since your place is conveniently on the red subway line stops), or just to enjoy Boston with family visiting from Germany, I 'll be sure to stay with you again.  Thank you for being such great hosts and providing such a nice accommodation for guests.

A wonderful place to stay -- beautiful, comfortable, friendly -- perfect!  Everything exactly as described in listing.  The bedroom and bathroom are spacious and gorgeous -- spotlessly clean -- lovely furnishings -- in a beautifully maintained Victorian house.  Bed very comfortable -- also a nice armchair, and a window-seat.  The bathroom is really luxurious -- and not shared (very nice!).  A quiet and leafy Boston neighbourhood -- ample street parking -- and easy walking distance to the Arnold Arboretum, Roslindale center, and commuter rail.  Jone was extremely easy to work with -- very welcoming, friendly, and flexible -- and also respectful of my privacy/independence.  Separate entrance was nice, too.  This is one of the nicest places I've ever stayed -- truly lovely.

Location : Nearest bus stop was less than 2-minute walk and was served by many different bus lines. Buses usually came right away and the longest I waited was five minutes. I had to visit many different parts of Boston and Cambridge and the public transportation was very convenient.<br/>House : It was very well-maintained and clean house. Grocery and basic shopping were across the street. The only catch was that there were no washer and drier in the house. Two laundromats were within walking distance (or better yet, for free dryers, a few bus stops away).<br/>People : My roommates were university academics or in the medical field. They were courteous and traveled often and the apartment was quiet. The neighborhood was diverse and safe. Neighbors were friendly. The host was very accommodating.<br/>Overall: Clean house with easy commute to downtown

Susie was terrific, she even picked me up at the nearby T stop when I first arrived (although I'm not sure guests should expect that!).  The location is in a wonderful area of Jamaica Plain, very close to Center Street with restaurants, shops and JP Licks (of course).  The apartment has everything you need - a nice little kitchen well stocked with coffee and tea, lovely bathroom, and comfortable beds upstairs.  It was also very quiet, which is always appreciated.  If you have trouble with stairs, you should be aware that there are steep stairs to the apartment and then a spiral staircase inside.

I had a nice time here at recent conference in Boston. As said before it's very convenient for using public transportation. The room is on the second floor of the house and I hardly saw Manuela or her husband except at check-in and check-out, which was great, I felt like I had a lot of privacy. The second floor has it's own kitchen and bathroom and the bed is extremely comfortable and good wi-fi. It was a great affordable stay!

Highly recommended, would stay here again.

Kit and Scott are the most lovely and gracious of hosts!  They were both wonderfully accommodating.  I had a great time chatting with them about our mutual interests in traveling and cooking!  The private room and bath was very clean and nicely decorated.  The location of their home is conveniently located next to the subway, which made it easy for me to get to my interviews.  They also offered their driveway so that I'd have a place to park my car.  I would highly recommend staying at their place if you are looking for great hosts, good conversation, and, of course, an affordable way to enjoy the city without having to spend a lot to do so.

BEAUTIFUL apartment. I'll admit, when looking at some of the photos, I wasn't sure if the space was going to be as nice as some of the photos portrayed and as the other reviews claimed. BUT, this location blew me away. VERY CLEAN. Beautifully renovated. It says one bed, but I comfortably slept on the sofa (I'm a 5'11" man), while my business colleague took the bed. Location is about 10 minute drive from downtown and about 20-25 minutes from Harvard/Cambridge/Brookline area. I'd definitely stay here again.

The apartment is spacious and secure, and there is an elevator to bring heavy bags up one floor.  She left me notes with information for all the things I needed in the building.  I would certainly stay there again if it were available.  You should grab this place if it is available when you are in Boston!

Celia and Jonathan made me feel at home.  Both were accommodating and eager to help or lend advice as it was my first time visiting Boston.  The neighborhood seems to be on an upswing with local houses being refurbished.  Just a short walk to the T stop made getting around very easy.  I felt safe in the neighborhood walking around alone at night.  The room was clean and as described.  A few times I thought to myself, it would be nice if I remembered to bring ... and it was right there already stocked.  Thank you Jonathan.

They also requested to stay there every time they come into Boston! I'd say it was a success! Highly recommend it.

I had a great stay at Bernard's apartment. It was clean and reminded of an apartment on a black sitcom. I had a couple people over and I almost wanted to say it was my new apartment with all the compliments I got. The location is also very good. It's on a relatively quiet street but is close to a lot of things and public transportation. Bernard was also pretty good with getting back to me so I never felt worried about booking or getting the keys. Besides an arduous walk upstairs (that I enjoyed actually) I can't really say anything bad about Bernard or his apartment. I would definitely recommend this listing to anyone looking in the area.

The house was in the middle of a quiet residential area in Roxbury, a classical American New England architecture neighborhood. My room was spacious with high ceiling and the apartment was clean and well-organized. Everything was just as described in the listing and Youtube videos. Two supermarkets and a small shopping area were just across the main street. It took less than 30 minutes to reach downtown on public transit. I used to walk to Jackson Square and it took me 15 minutes. A bus stop was within two minute walk and the buses came quite frequently, going to Dudley Station and Ruggles Station etc. Easy street parking was a huge plus for me. Other housemates were friendly and courteous. Many of them were in academia, particularly in the medical field, so there is a comfortable environment. I didn't get to meet all of them for a while until the host invited everyone for a dinner. They were mostly long-term. I totally recommend this house for its clean and safe environment and its easy commute to downtown. Huggy, the host, was really nice, responsible and helpful. He has enough experience as a host and can help you to get orientated in the city. Thank you Huggy and I wish you the best! Hope to see you again when I come back to Boston.

Lisa and John were such lovely, good-hearted people. I can't say enough how they made me feel right at home. I stayed there for a week while looking for apartments. There were a few special favors I needed to request of them that would've been completely within their rights to decline, but they went above and beyond to welcome me to the great city of Boston (free computer charging service! Haha). I would definitely recommend a friend to stay with them. <br/>The location is a very easy walk to public transportation and restaurants etc. Jamaica plain is a beautiful, quiet town with a lot of personality. <br/>It took one flight of stairs to get to my room, and they had everything I needed to feel comfortable- toiletries, towels, dresser. I especially liked the lights directly over the bed :) The bed was good, and that's saying a lot since I have a really bad back and rarely can sleep on a bed that's not mine. <br/>The bathroom is shared and I never had to wait more than a minute to use it. The cats do tend to like to sneak into your room if you don't keep it closed, which I found adorable :) but it is something to be aware of. <br/>

She helped us with anything we needed and always greeted us with a smile when we came down. The room was very cozy, clean and huge. Safe and quiet neighborhood with easy access to public transit! We had a really great time staying with Penny and we were truly sad to leave. We would highly recommend this place to anyone visiting Boston and we are looking forward to staying with Penny next time!

"Congenial, comfortable, and convenient". Our host Jone made us feel very welcome. We had coordinated our key pickup time and she showed us the rooms, then we left to spend time with my daughter and granddaughter who live nearby. The room is quite comfortable with an adjacent private bathroom which was recently remodeled. We enjoyed breakfast and conversation with Jone and her husband in the morning in their kitchen downstairs (it was on a weekend). Their home is a beautiful old house with lovely wood trim, located very near an entrance to the Arnold Arboretum, and we had no problem parking right in front.

Hannah and Philip are wonderful hosts!  Laid back and friendly, they make this apartment feel like home away from home.  They were very generous with the shared spaces; I never felt as though I was intruding.  If you enjoy board games, I imagine they'd be up for a game… but be prepared to lose to Philip!
<br/>
<br/>The apartment itself is very charming and sunny, and the guest room is right next to a breakfast table in the kitchen that gets great morning sun.  The house is on a quiet street in a very walkable neighborhood, with access to the T through a very nice (and well-lit) park.  The main business district of Jamaica Plain is just a few minutes walk away, as are the arboretum and pond.

This place was extraordinary! Gleaming hardwood floors, 25 foot ceilings-- I felt like I was in a historic mansion. I had the best night sleep - crisp clean white cotton sheets, awesome Posturepedic pillows (4 per bed), great mattress. 4 bedrooms for 3 people meant we got to spread out like divas! Huge shower with great water pressure. Wifi, fluffy towels, and fireplaces throughout the rooms. The rooms had all the charm of Beacon Hill without being cluttered. The kitchen had everything we needed. Spacious, comfortable and clean - a terrific value! With the rooftop deck and location, there is nothing better in Boston! Gloria was a fantastic host, accommodating me, my mom, and my cousin at the last minute. 
<br/>We can't wait to come back and stay here for a girls weekend--much cheaper than 2 hotel rooms or a nice suite, GIGANTIC and luxurious space, absolutely relaxing, beautiful and very fun place to stay! I felt like an old-time Beacon Hill heiress :)

Thank you for a wonderful stay! Everything was perfect from the moment we arrived. The apartment is extremely clean, sunny, and comfortable. It is set up to make you feel like you are at home, but has the amenities of a hotel. Helen left us delicious fresh baked goods every morning, in addition to homemade granola, coffee, tea, hot coco, yogurt, fruit, milk, ect. She was extremely flexible with arrival and departure times, which we were very grateful for! We would not hesitate to stay here again on our next trip to Boston!

The apartment was what we thought it would be.
<br/>Clean, fresh and well put. All the amenities were available and the keyless system was great. 
<br/>
<br/>A few issues were some technical difficulties with the detailing. 
<br/>The water pressure was very low, the gas fireplace did not have instructions to operate it (considering the interface was loose and non-user friendly). And there was a cold draft from multiple spots in the apartment. And the Bose sound system didn't seem to work while the internet was also sparse. 
<br/>
<br/>Apart from those few things, it was a great location. The quality was very good and we would very much recommend Terry's place!
<br/>
<br/>We should note that we had made a mistake with our reservation plans and mistook our check-out day for our last night there.
<br/>Terry was very understanding and we hope it didn't disrupt his plans too much.
<br/>
<br/>Thanks Terry, despite the little hiccup at the end!
<br/>Good luck :)

I loved staying at Lori's! It's very homey and cozy. She was great at communicating and responding promptly. The house is a great location - near the T and also easy to park with a car without a permit. The space is so cute and well-laid out - you can tell that Lori's put a lot of love into it. Even though this is a shared entrance with the rest of the house - the attic apartment is separate and you'll have all the privacy you need. Also I came at a really cold time and was worried about being uncomfortable but I was so toasty and warm the whole time. Lori also was very generous with tea, coffee and other goodies. You'll have everything you need and more here :-)

One of the nicest places I've stayed in Boston. Situated on a quiet, charming old world street with warm, tasteful, comfortable rooms. Very comfortable (firm!) mattresses, functional kitchen, privacy, and plenty of space. This place has personality and is not a hotel. You can hear people coming and going from the other units, one of the showers is in an old claw foot tub with less than robust water pressure, but the linens are crisp clean and abundant, the furniture is very comfortable, and it's a space I sincerely enjoyed being in.

There isn't much in the immediate vicinity, but there are some cute restaurants about a 10 minute walk away.

Best AirBnB I have ever had the pleasure to stay in. Jonathan was warm, welcoming and extremely helpful. He is also just a great guy to chat to.

<br/>The multi-level apartment/home is immaculately clean, warm (very important in a Boston winter) and has everything you need.
<br/>
<br/>The location is excellent, only a short walk to the nearest subway T-station (orange line).
<br/>
<br/>Towels, shampoo, conditioner, a bath robe and a guide to the local area are all provided!
<br/>
<br/>Also, importantly for an AirBnB, Jonathan also gives you your space as required.

We spent three nights at Dan's apartment and we really enjoyed the stay. The room was cozy and nice, the bed was a bit small but very comfortable. I really appreciated the warmth inside the house (it was snowing in Boston), the wooden  floor and the furniture which made it a very   pleasant place to stay in. We were also very happy with the apartment location, South Boston is a nice area, all the main  points of interest  are within  a easy reach, both by foot or by using the T red line. Dan  was also a great host, although we didn't meet him, he was always available by phone. On the whole, I suggest this place to everybody.

Victor was very attentive, flexible and welcoming. I truly appreciated his availability to show the apt prior to my mother arriving and flexibility in changing the dates to meet our needs. He had fruit and beverages available as a welcome gift. There was an issue with the plumbing, which was efficiently dealt with and Victor quickly offered a partial refund for the inconvenience of work men in the apt to fix the issue. The place itself is clean, warm and very accessible to many restaurants, supermarkets, transportation. The only minor annoyances were the noise level of at night of people coming in and out of the building (easily dealt with using ear plugs) and the key when entering the building would sometimes require several minutes to get it to open. Otherwise, wonderful stay.

这是一栋有年头的联体屋，内饰和家具很有历史意味，典型的新英格兰风格。位置紧靠市中心外围，步行一小时的距离，地铁不算很近，步行一刻钟，我后来都打车，十多分钟到市中心。毕竟是老房子，没有暖气，用电热油汀。每个房门和门把手都吱吱嘎嘎，楼梯也是，晚上走动很吵人。卫生间很小。厨房连着餐厅，很大，餐椅很好看，但太老，都摇摇晃晃，我二岁的孩子，从椅子上下来时因椅子不稳摔倒。答应的婴儿床没有出现，询问也没有回答，结果只好直接睡大人床，晚上几次滚下地板了。

First of all, there was delay in our flights andf Emmanuel waited for us till 11 p.m. to receive us. Our rental car parked in front of his garage and not on the street. 
<br/>
<br/>Then the heater thermostat had some issue on Sunday morning ( of the New Year long weekend ) and Emmanuel immediately got someone to fix it the same day, after receiving our message. He understood our dependance on the heating in the house as this is our first Boston winter, and acted without any questioning.
<br/>
<br/>There is a bus stop ( Bus #38 ) 1 minute from his house which we took to get to Forest Hills T-Station ( last station of the Orange line ). It took us 15-20 mins walk to the T-station on Sunday when Bus #38 is not in service. We used the Orange line to get to wherever we want rather conveniently. Boston T has weekly and monthly Bus & Train passes which is a cheap way to travel wihtout the high expenses to park your car in downtown.
<br/>
<br/>Overall, the descriptions and photos are accurate and Emmanuel's house we are very glad that we made the right choice to stay in his house. Overall, it is a steal, if his house is available on the dates of your requirement. Definitely a host and a house you don't want to miss in Boston.

First off, Victor was great to work with. My boyfriend met him and spoke with him mostly. Whenever we had questions, he would get back to us right away. He even asked if we would like our sheets changed during our stay!<br/>Before arriving, I have to say, I was a bit nervous because of the square footage...<br/>As soon as I walked in the apartment, I was pleasantly surprised! I fell in love with this apartment. Victor has decorated and arranged the furniture in such a way that it felt so much larger than what it is. I thought we might of over packed but everything we brought, we found a place for thanks to the way Victor has designed this beautiful apartment.<br/>My boyfriend and I stayed for a month. We work on our laptops and we just require strong internet. The internet worked absolutely perfect. When you enter in the apartment, there is this office space which I would work in when my boyfriend had phone meetings. I definitely did not feel like my boyfriend and I were cramped while working in the day time.<br/>Victor left us our favorite snacks in the cute kitchen area. We cooked a lot in the kitchen and did not feel limited considering it was just an electric stove top. There was Dunkin Donuts and Starbucks K-cups as well as tea. There was still a lot left over after staying a month there!<br/>There is a coin operated laundry machine in the basement. No one is really there on the weekdays. It was very helpful considering we were there for a month. Victor even had laundry detergent!<br/>We brought our car and luckily Victor has a parking pass that is about a 5 min walk away but luckily we were able to find street parking just outside the building or in back. There was no need to really use the car since the B Green Line was right in front.<br/>The area is absolutely amazing. And within walking distance.<br/>I am from Boston so it was great to revisit some favorite places. If you enjoy consignment shops and vinyl, be prepared to bring an extra bag. There is a Buffalo Exchange and like 2 more thrift stores on that same street. Be prepared!<br/>Great Scott is a must visit if you enjoy seeing live bands play. Food options vary from Pizza, Brunch, Mediterranean (Garlic and Lime is delicious), Korean, Froyo, and Sushi.<br/>There is also a CVS and a grocery store (B Fresh) within walking distance. And of course plenty of coffee shops or Dunkin Donuts and Starbucks if you want something familiar.<br/>There is a TD banks and Bank of America. We got our quarters at TD bank for laundry day.<br/>I HIGHLY recommend booking this place. Stop thinking about it! Just book it.<br/>This will for sure be where we stay for all our Boston visits.<br/>Thanks Victor!

Christie was a very good host and a friendly person. The apartment was quiet, clean and nicely decorated. It's conveniently located near a lot of stuff for tourists. Totally worth the money.

We relocated to Boston from Glasgow in December 2015 and needed a place for a month while trying to sort out a more permanent housing situation. Laura's apartment was the perfect choice. Conveniently located within walking distance to Northeastern University (new job), short walk to Back Bay area and Boston Public park, not to mention the excellent food scene in the South End. 
<br/>
<br/>The apartment itself was great. Extremely clean, well organised, and functional - just about everything we would need for a month long stay. I won't expand much on all the great features of this place as the previous reviews already mention them. Also the nice thing (which has been uncommon from our experience) was the reliable/strong WIFI signal. Streaming on netflix - never had a problem. 
<br/>
<br/>Laura was a fantastic and responsive host. Since, we have now found an apartment just around the corner, we are thrilled to have her as a neighbour now.

Location location location!!!! Honestly perfect. We where able to walk to many restaurants and shops. The apartment fit all of our needs. It's a very busy building and the noise level above the condo was a bit much for us but other than that our stay was amazing! I loved the sparkling water and chocolates that where left for us. Great touch!

Our host greeted us upon arriving at the place.  We automatically felt comfortable and cozy.  The place was very clean and ready for guests.  Informational brochures were on the counter to help us plan our vacation, the kitchen has great basic amenities(coffee, tea, condiments, etc.) and the bathroom were also stocked with all necessary toiletries.  Tiffany was available to answer any questions that we had and give us some great ideas on places in the area to check out. The location was fantastic to catch the T, walk to area restaurants and gift shops, and hop in an Uber to places downtown Boston.  We felt at home, and had plenty of space of five guests for the weekend. We all agreed we would want to rent this place again if we ever came back to visit.  For my first AirBnB experience, it was a great first impression of using this site to plan vacations.  Thank you Tiffany for everything!

Gloria made us feel welcome by allowing us to check in a little early.  We had friends flying into Logan and we were able to park the car and get settled before their arrival!  She showed us around  and made sure  we knew how to turn the lights on and where to find everything.  She was friendly, offered some good dining tips,  a pleasure to talk with. The apartment was everything we expected and more.  Plenty of comfortable furniture, extra blankets if needed, the roof top was incredible. Especially with the exceptionally warm weekend temps  we experienced in January   The accommodations are perfect for 6, vey clean and well kept.  We hope to have a repeat visit!! Thank you.

This place is absolutely amazing. It was like staying in a 5-star hotel. It was clean, spacious, and downright comfortable. Loved the bathroom too (two shower heads!)! Haha! It was a feast for the eyes and the location was good too! The pics don't do it justice. Appreciated the chocolates on the pillows, too!
<br/>
<br/>Just a few minutes walk away from Boston College (the reason why we visited) and the T stop that leads downtown. For those looking for a luxurious stay in a laid-back neighbourhood, this is the place to stay. Will definitely consider this place again! Love it!

Meri and Jeff were great hosts. Meri was easy to reach and got back to me with any questions right away. The apartment is clean and well maintained (it looks exactly like the pictures). I am someone who suffers from allergies so traveling is difficult and often uncomfortable. However, I did not have any discomfort at my stay in this location-which is a big deal for those of us who suffer from allergies. I look forward to staying in this location again soon.

Well, talking about host- he was extremely rude, arrogant and never made us feel good in the property. And when I say that rest all things become Secondary.
<br/>Sharing just one of the Incidents that happened. 
<br/>We were suppose to reach there at about 11 AM as the Host had given us the permission for Early Check-in; and that was very kind of him.
<br/>Apart from that nothing was good about the stay experience, as our flight got delayed and we got late so I called the host at 1 PM and told him that we will reach by 5-5.30 PM. Now after that unfortunately, we forgot the time and realised that we are late only after we received a call from the Host at 6.30 PM. 
<br/>The Host at first sounded genuine as he told us that he was waiting for us but then he said that if we are to stay in the Property we have to reach there by 7 PM as after that he will be leaving and he has Job to do.
<br/>We realised our mistake and reached there by the given time and felt Sorry to the host a number of times but it was very late that we realised that he also stayed in the same property. So, now here are my points-
<br/>1. We only called him and told him about our arrival timings twice, but he never told us prior that he is particular about Check-in timings.He has not even mentioned that in his Rules.
<br/>2. He got our shoes removed outside; again that should be mentioned in the House Rules.
<br/>3. 1 day before our Check-out time, he asked what time we will be leaving and I replied, "Around 11 AM"; to which he said, "It's fine and as long as you understand that". This was even more ridiculous for him to say anything like that.
<br/>4. Lastly, even after a number of Sorry feelings he made us realise as we did some big crime.
<br/>Also the Room size is not that big as it appears in the pictures, even though there is just adequate storage space available with it.
<br/>Neighbourhood is good without any issues with good it and close to Restaurants and Grocery stores.

This unit was perfect! The location, size and amenities were just right. My husband and I have a 1 year old dog, so having a unit that opens to the street level was great for taking him for walks around the North End. The unit has a full kitchen (even though we ate out everyday), big bathroom and an in-unit washer and dryer. The place was spotless when we arrived and there was even a nice little welcome basket with some snacks. I highly recommended this place, if you're looking to be in the heart of the North End.

Jacklyn was a perfect host! We had immediate and thoughtful communications from her, and this lovely, well-located apartment was immaculately clean and well equipped. There were loads of fresh linen/towels, a full kitchen, and books and games to enjoy. Apple TV was a real plus. Brookline is an area where street parking can be tricky, so the driveway access was really beneficial. All in all, a terrific stay. We will be back!

I felt more than welcomed from the first email exchanges I had with Jonathan. Before arriving, he was very flexible and opened to answering all of my questions so that my arrival would go as smoothly as possible. When I arrived, the room was even bigger than I expected and the shared space was as seen on the pictures : clean, nice and convenient. Before arriving, I was wondering how it would be to commute towards downtown or other interesting neighbourhoods in Boston and I found out that it was pretty close to South End and Back Bay and a nice walk to Fenway.

Glenn handled the necessary arrangements and Kevin was there to greet us at the lovely brownstone townhouse in the Victorian-style neighbourhood of South End. The cosy apartment was exactly as described, and then some. There was a hair dryer, hangers, bath supplies and basic kitchen condiments (e.g. flour, sugar, salt, pepper and oil), which were handy. The location was safe and within a few paces of a convenience store and laundromat. Our taxi ride from the airport was about $30. Overall, my friends and I had a very enjoyable stay here. Thanks again!

Probably the best value Airbnb I've had in Boston!  Place was great, apartment was clean and amazing location!  May want to bring a set of earplugs if you're a light sleeper since this apartment is at an intersection that converts from a one way to two way and there's lots of late night honking!  Place was great though.  Highly recommended!!

Great experience! The house was very well-appointed, comfortable, and well-stocked. Tiffany was super responsive and helpful, even with my idiotic inability to understand Boston's parking laws. We were in town for a conference at Copley Square and ended up with 11 people in the house one night, and it was totally fine. The beds and couch are comfortable and there is room for multiple air mattresses. I would highly recommend this house if you're looking for a comfortable and homey place to stay in Boston!

This apartment was perfect for us during my daughter's stay at Boston Children's Hospital. It is about a mile and a half walk to the hospital. Plenty of free parking within 1 minute walk. Subway station about a 5 minute walk. Terry handled all of our questions immediately. Only drawbacks are that it's at the top of two fairly steep and narrow stairs and any noise made goes straight into the apartment directly below. We had to constantly remind our children to try to walk silently. Overall a great experience!!

Tyree was very helpful through text message which is perfect because we don't like intrusive hosts. This was a studio part of a big house but there was a lot of privacy. The neighborhood was beautiful. Checking in and out was very easy! I LOVED the flexibility and really appreciated it since we were coming from across the country (California). We didn't feel rushed on getting kicked out and to carry our suitcases to get some food before our flight. Overall, was an easy going experience which was just what we needed on our quick business trip.

This home is really what airbnb is all about- all the comforts of home and yet the delight of having new friends to guide you gently through the wonders of a new city.<br/>Before I even got to Boston, Philip sent helpful messages regarding transport and his directions were clear and concise. On arrival it was clear that he and Hannah had taken a lot of care to prepare a welcoming and very comfortable room. As travellers themselves, they understand and provide many subtle touches to ensure your stay is just a pleasure. There's lots of natural light, more than enough room for your things- a whole empty cupboard- and plenty of privacy. Fresh bread baked for your breakfast! <br/>The apartment is in a very funky and hip neighbourhood, lots of quirky interesting stores and eateries, friendly people and very safe. Its an easy walk from the orange line train which runs straight down town very frequently. <br/>But the best thing about this listing is the people...Hannah and Philip are well read, thoughtful and charming, so interested in the world around them and  all it holds. Their company is full of warmth and openness, and they really are ideal hosts. My stay in Boston will remain a joyful memory for a long time because of this wonderful home.<br/>(Travellers should note that this apartment is on the third floor of a gorgeous house. If you are in a wheelchair or have significant mobility issues the stairs might be difficult to navigate).

<br/>The apartment was great and very accurately described. Adam was very up-front about the fact that the actual apartment that we rented was on the 5th floor and that there was no lift available...However it was worth the regular climb and with all of the fantastic restaurants nearby...we needed the exercise! Upon arrival we had a couple of very minor requests but these were very efficiently dealt with, so in short, I would have no hesitation in recommending both Adam and the apartment.

My colleague and I stayed here for three nights on a work trip to Boston.  Lori has a great place. You get the whole third floor to yourself and it's very much like your own apt.  One private bedroom and then there's a nice pullout bed in the living room.  You have your own kitchen, and the fridge was stocked with nice options, especially for breakfast.  Apple TV/Netflix on the TV.  Quick 5 minute walk to the Stonybrook T stop.  I'd recommend Lori's place to any traveler who's coming to Boston for work or play, especially if you like the JP area!

Jennifer is an elegant host and sensitive person. I received her grace and generosity as a gift within my personal memories of Boston.

<br/>Jennifer's retreat is more of a state of mind than a sheer place, and one that everyone would want to experience at least once in their life. Living there by the time I was conceiving of my book prospectus has been a blessing - as it was having the Arboretum, a tiny gem of a yoga school, and small groceries offering standard as well as Greek and Middle Eastern flavours just a few steps from home. The connection to downtown works perfectly (30 minutes by bus and metro). Once you get to know Roslindale Village and the close-by areas, such as Jamaica Plain, in all likelihood you would start reassessing your mental map and perceiving the Prudential Centre, Copley or other overrated attractions as fake, boring places where to spend the best part of your time. Or you might still enjoy having the best of both worlds: you will be in a laid-back, genuine and verdant neighborhood, but close to the sights and action of the most touristic corners.
<br/>
<br/>I had comfort time and food sharing with Jennifer, her son Lucas for a few days, and another housemate. No nonsense or idle talk, but a profound flow of true communication. 
<br/>
<br/>The bedroom is quiet, beautifully and frugally decorated, with bounty of sunlight; as it is the whole house, which features solid wood sheeting; artistic and architectural creations; underfloor heating in the large, restful bathroom; and a high-tech and fully-equipped kitchen to the delight of absolute beginners as well as seasoned cooks. You will never get tired of standing there, in front of one of the large windows, and looking out at the greenery.
<br/>
<br/>HIGHLY RECOMMENDED.

Excellent location just steps from Old North Church and the heart of Boston's North End (Little Italy) which is full of character and delicious food. The apartment was charming, very clean and the bed was comfortable. The host gave good directions. About a 10 min walk to the "t" sub away system which easily gets you all around Boston. My one complaint is that the heating system bangs a lot and will wake up a light sleeper. I would stay here again and would recommend it to others.

This is an A+ listing. I have used Airbnb all around the world and this was by far the best experience I have had. Riyo was extremely good at communicating, very helpful for anything I needed while I was there, the apartment was very clean, and even had snacks and drinks! I had the luxury of having my own entrance but also having my host near by if I needed anything. 
<br/>
<br/>On top of all that it is a two minute walk to the metro. If you are looking to stay in Boston and are 1 or 2 people, this is the place to book. I will certainly try and stay here again if come back to Boston.

Jason and Valerie were amazing hosts. We immediately felt welcome and at home. We arrived in the middle of the night, but the directions of how to get to and into the apartment were very clear, so everything went smoothly. 
<br/>The room was beautiful, clean, warm, and bright. The whole place was spotless and very comfortable. 
<br/>There was always food there for us and Jason was great company during breakfast. They were very helpful with directions and recommendations for Boston and the surrounding areas. 
<br/>The description of the place was very accurate. This was our best airbnb stay so far, and if we'll be going to Boston again we will definitely try to stay here again. Needless to say we highly recommend this place.

My sister and I decided to stay at this lovely and bright apartment for our weekend stay in Boston. The location couldn't have been more perfect! There were tasty restaurants, shops and a Whole Foods within close walking distance. Helen was eager to help us locate anything and everything of interest! She even had a basket with maps, guides and brochures about city activities and attractions. We walked a short distance to the T and found our way quite easily around the city. Samuel Adams Brewery Tour and the party bus to Doyle's Bar was just one highlight of our trip. I cannot say enough nice things about the host, Helen. She keeps the place spotless and fresh, uses natural cleaning products (which is important to us), and even brings up warm pastries for breakfast in the morning! The spread she left for us was far more elaborate than any hotel's continental breakfast! Yogurt, homemade granola, milk, juice, coffee, hot chocolate, and an assortment of teas. We felt spoiled! Helen was also flexible and so easy to communicate with. She let us check in and check out late and was even very gracious when we let her know we had broken a wine glass while doing dishes. It's all those details that make her place such a treasure!

The apartment itself was clean, cozy, and matched the description. I wouldn't hesitate to come back here again the next time we are in Boston!

Betsy was a great host for our weekend trip up to Boston. Her home was full of character and was beautifully decorated with lots of Boston themed items. Located near the orange and silver lines it is a practical home base, far enough from the center of the city to feel 'homely' but well positioned for travelling into the city.  Our room was very comfortable and we loved the bookshelf full of various travel guides as well as the art displayed. At all times the apartment was very clean and we had no issue sharing the bathroom space. 
<br/>
<br/>The thing that sets this listing apart is the host: Betsy. Betsy was a tremendous resource in helping us plan our activities for each day and we found that the restaurants she recommended were tasty and just a short walk away. She was always very friendly towards us and was always asking if there was anything more we needed of her. We were there on the coldest weekend of the year and she was always reminding us to stay warm before we went out. She had a great knowledge of the city and was clearly very enthusiastic about sharing her favorite spots with us. Overall we will definitely be staying with Betsy again on our next trip to Boston and would recommend her apartment to any other person or couple.

It was Valentine's weekend and my bf & I decided we wanted to spend it in Boston. We picked Penny's place because of it's charm, great reviews, and convenience to the T (Boston's transit system). Penny was a wonderful host ! We booked our stay during negative 10 degree weather, but Penny made sure we stayed warm by providing us with extra blankets and an additional space heater. She even made me a cup of hot coco to warm up after a full day of walking around in the cold. She also dropped us off at the train a couple times.<br/>At first we had a little trouble with the lock to the front entrance of the house, but then we realized we could also access the back which was easier for us. <br/>Penny's home was lovely. The details in her home show her warm personality. The room itself is very cozy with a cute reading nook, an inspiring quote in the bathroom, comfy bed, and the large window with a great view ! For our last stop in Boston we stayed close by checking out the Sam Adams brewery which is a 15 min. walk from Penny's. We wanted to explore more of the JP neighborhood but unfortunately we didn't have the time. We hope to return during a warmer time to  enjoy more. Thank you Penny for a memorable weekend stay :-)

We very much enjoyed our trip to Jamaica Plains! Both of our first times to Boston, and we explored via the subway. The location is great for visiting without a car, the subway goes right from the Air Port to the local stop (about a 5 min walk). Plus, the location is within easy walking distance to Downtown Jamaica Plains where there are a lot of great places to eat. Great accommodations, and friendly host!

I've rented for 1 week and then I came back for 3 extra days because the experience was completely good. 
<br/>
<br/>Some highlights:
<br/>
<br/>Despite I've visited this home on Winter, inside I really felt like it was Spring or even Summer. Lisa's happiness and hospitality is incomparable.
<br/>You have your own space (fridge/dorm/washing center) but if you want you can talk with hosts at the kitchen or living room. There's always somebody at home, so you can start a conversation. This helped me a lot, because I want to improve my english skills  (I speak spanish) and Lisa even speaks spanish. 
<br/>
<br/>Lisa cooks great things and has chic teas that can share with you!
<br/>
<br/>By the side, the neighborhood is quiet and near (5 min) to great spots in Jamaica Plain.  From Green St. takes 15 min to Downtown.
<br/>
<br/>I'm looking forward to comeback someday :) 
<br/>101% Recommendable.

Our family stayed in Geoff's apartment for two nights while my daughter-in-law delivered my newest grandchild at Tufts Medical Center, just three blocks away. I am so glad we were able to stay at Geoff's - it made all the waiting so much more pleasant! It's a really nice place and very quiet. Easy walking distance to Whole Foods, Starbucks, lots of good restaurants in Chinatown.  We originally booked just one night, but labor was taking longer than expected. When I reached out to Geoff to ask if we could stay another night, he responded in the affirmative very quickly and humorously "keep pushing!" which quickly eliminated one source of worry!  I love that Geoff doesn't have a lot of clutter around. Be prepared to walk up two flights of rather narrow stairs to Geoff's apartment on the third floor.  FYI if you park at the tufts medical center garage you can get your ticket validated at the medical center, if you or your family member is a patient, for a discount on your parking. BTW my beautiful and healthy new granddaughter Sylvia Susan Ramos finally made her appearance on Feb. 17 at 10pm.  Thanks, Geoff!

We were greeted by Lisa & John later in the evening and as we walked through the house, I knew we would be in for a treat once the morning sun rose, with the beautiful, vibrant colors and big windows.

Best part, after our tiring adventures, we were able to come home to Lisa's comfy house and hang with the sweet cats.

Unit is accurately described and we had a fine stay. It was clean, safe, and in a great neighborhood. Super convenient. Mattresses were comfortable and renovations in bathroom and kitchen look great. 
<br/>
<br/>Make sure to bring dish soap and coffee filters (though we purchased some and left them at the apartment so hopefully next person is set) There are plates and some silverware  but don't assume any basics are available in the kitchen to prepare a simple meal. Also, you have no access to temperature control but the windows do open (it was kept very warm) 
<br/>
<br/>I am not sure how long there will be construction on the floor below but it was day and night with no breaks during our stay. We called the building super and did get a few hours break from the noise. We would have booked elsewhere because of this, but otherwise would stay here again and recommend the space.

Also two public transportation lines (trolleys) are within a 11 minute walk.

We really enjoyed our stay here - the picture is out the main window and is accurate - you can see the water, baseball field and a bit of foot traffic.
<br/>
<br/>Inside was as described - 1 bed and a pullout (slightly uncomfortable) - great for 2 people.  Tracy helped us get in the building, she recommended we park in garage (about 3 minutes from place).
<br/>
<br/>It's a decent price for a decent place in North End - 15-20 minutes walking can get you to the Aquarium, breakfast (Theo's), pizza (Regina), bar (Roccos), TD Garden, Quincy Market, and about 2 dozen other places - thanks!

When we arrived we were pleasantly surprised by the room and the many snack treats available.  The accommodations were just right.  We were impressed by the the efficient use of space.  Not a square inch was wasted.  It is only two blocks from the subway and we had a parking space.  Best of all we got to meet Riyo and her family, who were most friendly and welcoming.  We would certainly come back and recommend them to anyone.

Unsere Gastgeber waren nett und haben uns mit Wasserflaschen und Ear plugs gegen den Strassenlärm versorgt. Auch haben sie (und ihre Tochter) uns Tipps gegeben, was wir in Boston anschauen sollen und uns eine Extraeintrittskarte, die sie noch hatten, gegeben.
<br/>
<br/>Die Nachbarschaft war sehr dreckig, laut und nachts "sketchy". Die Wohnung war allerdings sehr sauber und aufgeräumt. Der U-bahnstopp ist ca. 10 Minuten zu Fuss entfernt. Frühstück war Kaffee, Toast und Marmelade und etwas Selbstgebackenes von Valerie (für uns Bananennussbrot und etwas mit Erdnussbutter, beides sehr gut). Das Internet hat oftmals kaum oder gar nicht funktioniert, vor allem oben im dritten Stock wo das Schlafzimmer ist.

Frank was very accommodating throughout my stay in East Boston. He is easy to reach via text, phone, or email. Frank provided detailed instructions for entry allowing for a seamless transition from airport to residence. 
<br/>
<br/>Upon entry it is clear that Frank takes pride in a clean and presentable home. If you're in need of a home away from home whether for business or leisure this is your spot!

This room is just awesome. The private bathroom is really cool and the fridge in the room compensate the fact that guests do not have access to the kitchen. <br/>Moreover Johnathan and Celia are just perfect hosts and very easy going for everything: check in, check out... <br/>I highly recommend this flat well located near the subway station.

Stayed at Jose's apartment for 3 nights. This apartment was perfect. On the freedom trail, steps away from the Old North Church, cafes and restaurants of little Italy. About a 7-10 min walk from the train and more bars and restaurants. The apartment was cozy and warm which was nice because two nights there it was freezing. I highly recommend this apartment and would definitely stay here again.

<br/>This is a hidden gem. The neighborhood seems transitional but the apartment is so cute, clean and well stocked.  
<br/>It was very quiet and and an easy walk to neat restaurants and a wine bar. 
<br/>Miriam was so kind as to send me my forgotten toiletry bag in the mail.
<br/>I will definitely be back!

The place is very conveniently located in the heart of the Italian neighborhood in the North End. It is walking distance from all the cool places. The place itself is modest but worth the price. Jose was very easy to work with and it was easy to get in/out of the place.

Staying at Johns place was really great! The pad was in this beautiful old Boston home with high ceilings and thee most comfortable beds and comfortable living space, nice back yard for drinking morning coffee and clean, well kept house overall. It's also close to the bus and T ( commuter train) lines. As well as small, quaint shops to explore in West Roxbury if you wanted an outing close to home without facing the big city. It's safe and John was very solicitous throughout the whole booking process. I'd definitely recommend.

Fantastic experience from start to finish. This was my first time using Airbnb and Jason was helpful and responsive throughout. The flat was clean and warm when I arrived (much appreciated as it was a cold night) and in a great location, right on the Freedom Trail. Jason also allowed me to check out late as I had an evening flight. Would definitely recommend this listing to others and would happily stay here again.

Gloria made us feel totally welcome! From by going to get us almond milk for our employee with an allergy, to giving us advice on where to go! Unfortunately the weather was not conducive with much time spent on the roof terrace, but the view was spectacular. The house itself was lovely and the beds very comfy. The location is TOP NOTCH for Boston and I would definitely recommend if for any trip, business or pleasure. Thanks Gloria!!

Alex was very helpful with all the questions I had.  The apartment was very nice and clean just as described in the post. Although the location is very convenient, only two short blocks from the subway, the neighborhood wasn't the best.  However it's not the worst neighborhood either, as long as you're street smart, you should be fine. There was a binder full of things to do with maps and directions in the apartment that we found very helpful.
<br/>The post says free parking on site however it's street parking with a two hour limit.

Miriam's place was perfect for what we needed. It was a great size for our visit. It was in a really nice location and saved us so much money that we would have spent on parking because it has a nice little private parking lot. It was an easy uber drive from the hospital and only about a 20 minute walk as well. Miriam and her husband were very accommodating and they were considerate of any request we had. It is on the first floor with easy and private access that was very appreciated. We felt safe and secure the entire time and recommend this listing.

I didn't meet Jason, but we had a good communication by email.
<br/>The flat is nicely designed, with a very nice bedroom and a brand new bathroom. 
<br/>It is a little obscure as it gives on a back yard but it was not too annoying as we were out during the day, wandering in the North End district, the very alive district of Boston
<br/>It seems all the flats of the building are short rentals, which has the disadvantage of having noisy neighbors partying some days.
<br/>But overall, it was a good experience.

Vj's place was great. It looks exactly like the pictures and was extremely comfortable. I stayed there alone for a week and felt I had plenty of room to stretch out. Knowing the area, I was nervous about noise both inside and outside the building, but it wasn't a problem at all - not even the T right out the front door. The wifi worked great and I was able to relax at night with Netflix and Hulu. The kitchen was fine with a dorm style fridge, dual cooktop and microwave, and I appreciated the office to get a little work done while I was there.
<br/>
<br/>Vj was also great. He met me at the door and showed me around. I was already familiar with the area so I didn't need much introduction, but he can help you out if you are looking for something to do. I didn't see him again, although he lives very close if there is a problem.
<br/>
<br/>If you are looking to stay in Allston/Bright, this is the place to rent. Thanks Vj.

The location was great, close to restaurants, whole foods store and St Elizabeth's hospital, within walking distance for our needs.  The unit where we stayed was very clean and stocked with everything we needed, linens, blankets and cooking utensils.  
<br/>the only problem we encountered was the heating unit.  It was only 62 degrees inside the apartment when  we arrived  and it was definitely chilly outside, especially for us because we live in Florida. 
<br/>However, Sanjay was very helpful in obtaining a heating company to come look at the unit late in the evening.  Sanjay himself even came over to see if there was anything he could do to help with the heat.  He offered to bring in space heaters if needed and for us to call him no matter the time if the problem with the heat could not be solved.  He even offered to help us  move to another unit if necessary.  The repairman was able to improve the heat for us but
<br/>the baseboard heater in the bedroom made a loud squealing noise every time the heat kicked on., and it was worse during the nite, but we managed,  even though we did not get much sleep.  It took about 12 hr for the apt. to finally warm up and thankfully it was warmer outside so we did not need as much heat.  Overall it was a quiet, nice place to stay. Having access to movie channels on the large screen TV was a plus.  Sanjay was very polite, accommodating to our needs and did everything he could to make our stay pleasant.  I would recommend this Airbnb for hospitality  homes to use for their clients.

Alicia a eu à coeur de me donner toutes les informations relatives au check-in avant que je n'arrive, afin que tout se passe au mieux. Elle s'est inquiétée au cours du séjour de savoir comment ça allait et si d'une façon ou d'une autre elle pouvait faire quelque chose pour moi. Elle m'a laissée avec plaisir rester quelques heures de plus le jour de mon départ, puisque cela lui était possible ce jour là. 
<br/>Le quartier de Beacon Hill est vraiment adorable, propre et calme. La situation est incroyable avec le parc du Boston Common a trois minutes à pied. Le waterfront est tout proche, les magasins, les arrêts de métro, tout est très facilement accessible. 
<br/>Le logement correspond exactement aux photos. Il est très soigné et remarquablement propre. Il y a, à notre disposition, un petit bureau et une grande armoire. Le lit est confortable, la cuisine est fonctionnelle et propre, le réfrigérateur est grand (à noter que cela vaut la peine de se munir de bouchons pour les oreilles pour dormir si vous êtes sensibles car le frigo fait un petit bruit continu). La salle de bain est impeccable. Le séjour a été vraiment très agréable.

As soon as I came across Todd's listing, I was appealed by the positive reviews and the pictures I was seeing. I found Todd extremely responsive and he had that great energy going, which as truly positive. 
<br/>When I got to the place everything went smoothly. My assumptions about Todd were confirmed. He is absolutely delightful, and always ready to help in friendly yet professional manner. 
<br/>
<br/>I was in Boston for a professional conference and I had a few errands to run and other things to finalise for it. Todd kindly helped me to navigate everything and made this experience  a truly positive one.
<br/>
<br/>I would like to reiterate that this place is very minimal, it is only a room and a fridge/coffee machine. It won't accommodate a very long stay. For me it was perfect as I stayed for two nights.

We really enjoyed being able to walk where we needed to go relatively easily.  Our kids enjoyed the little playground across the street as well. We found the best parking for our needs was just down Commercial Street a few blocks at about $34/night.

When we weren't out having a good time we were more than comfortable hanging out in the very spacious living room. We were a group of adults but we would have been just as comfortable had we brought along our kids. Maybe next time!

Kit and Scott were great hosts during my stay.  They were very helpful with information regarding local things to do or see and they were very hospitable. The upstairs accommodations were spacious and very comfortable. Their breakfast was a good start for the day (especially when I awoke to the lovely aroma of baking wild blueberry muffins). There was always pleasant conversation and Kit, Scott and Purcey were very personable and easygoing. It was very relaxed to stay there and the location was very convenient for spending time in Jamaica Plain or taking the T up into the City. If I make a return trip to JP I will be sure to check there first for availability.  Spring had not quite started when I arrived but the weather was very mild and its very apparent that the landscaping, the fishpond and the rest of the yard were getting ready to go green which would make the days there even more delightful.

I could not imagine staying in a more beautiful home. Not only is Jil a great host, but she is also an impeccable interior designer and artist, which you can see in the furniture throughout the home and the art on the walls. Even the bathroom is a sight to behold. As a host, she is very warm and welcoming and she definitely makes you feel comfortable and at home. If you value privacy, this is a perfect setting and if you would like enjoyable conversation with your host, this is also perfect. The neighborhood is wonderful, with resplendent houses and beautiful trees. And it's short walk to the train and an even shorter walk to Jamaica Plain's vibrant Centre Street, with many good restaurants and cafes. If you'd like to stay in JP, this is definitely the place to be.

She's usually around the building and checks in frequently enough to make sure you're enjoying your stay. Her gorgeous apartment is very clean and has all the essentials. The apartment is very centrally located and close to all the nice restaurants and venues. We would definitely have Laura in mind when we have visitors in town:)

<br/>I have selected this house in Airbnb website for the great pictures of the room and when I have arrived there the spaces were better than the photos. The house is new inside, the spaces are clean and ordered, there are a lot of cabinets where you can store your things so it's simple maintain the order and leaves the spaces constantly organized.
<br/>Jhonathan is a great host and a real friend. I have spent with him and the others (good) guests of the house a really good dinners, conversations and nights in pubs. I was far 6000km of my ' born house' but I have found there a good place to call 'house'.
<br/>
<br/>P.S. An example that speaks itself about good host: ''during the most ice cold day in the Boston's winter from last 25 years (-20°C), it was quite cold inside the house caused to unfriendly weather, so Jonathan promptly provides to buy more heaters and the house remain however comfortable! Great!

The house was clean, warm, and very spacious. The listening description was very accurate. The neighborhood was quiet yet close to many shops and restaurants.  We could not ask for anything more.

This was my first time using Air Bnb and I must say, I was pleasantly surprised.<br/>Victor's use of space was very creative and efficient. He kept in contact way in advance and asked me what my favorite drinks and snacks were and provided them when I got there. He's super nice and talented. <br/>The apartment was cozy and was just what I needed for my stay in Boston. He has wifi, Apple TV (with a plethora of choices), a little kitchen and 3 beds. <br/>The location is really convenient because there's a grocery store a few blocks away and the T stop is right across the street.<br/>I would definitely stay here again if I come back to visit.

Mélissa is the best! I felt like home, back in Boston. She and her friends are awesome! And I will not Forget the sweat Acacia! The room has exactly like in the picture! The neighborhound calme and frendly. The train orange line near by, which by far is the best t line in Boston.
<br/>So, go to Melissa superhost superhouse!

We stayed in Anthony's lovely apartment for a month after moving to Boston from London with our two cats, and Anthony was very helpful and accommodating about the whole situation. He allowed us to have  items mailed to the house beforehand since our flight was arriving late, and stocked the kitchen and bathroom with essentials. He kept in touch throughout the stay to make sure we were ok, and provided us with helpful information about the area.

My experience with the CarneyFamily was wonderful. I was provided with detailed instructions on how to make my way around the neighborhood which was also lovely.

We had a great experience staying at Mary and Barney’s place. While we never met our hosts, the house was beautiful and the room was perfect for the two of us. The kitchen was well-equipped and it was great to wake up to fresh muffins, coffee and granola each morning. The place was very close to the T train to get downtown. The view from the back porch was incredible. We could easily walk to the harbor and access the Harborwalk trail. We were well taken care of and will definitely be back!

This was the best AirBnB experience I've had. This private studio was so clean, elegant and thoughtful; I just loved it and wish I could have stayed longer. 
<br/>
<br/>I was in town because my mom was at Brigham and Women's, so I needed something quiet and relaxing. I was amazed by the level of detail in the space. Jonathan left maps and lists of things to do, and everything about this cosy studio was filled with exquisite taste.

Katarzyna was a great host!  Felt welcomed and she very accommodating.  I was able to check in much sooner due to my early flight and my guest was able to check out later due to her flight.  The apartment was clean and she was readily available whenever I had questions. The apartment is 5 mins walking distance to the RedLine which leads you to all public transportation.  7 mins walking distance to Carson beach and the ocean.  Perfect location if you enjoy running as Castle Island is less than 3 miles away. And the backyard is a perfect little getaway as well!

Our weekend at the "Boston Garden" apartment was wonderful. As other reviews have mentioned the pictures do not do it justice! I felt as if I was in an apartment straight out of HGTV. Two shower heads, heated bathroom floors, all the best appliances, a very comfortable bed, the list goes on. I think I took about 50 pictures so I could brag to all my friends and family. My biggest concern when traveling- staying somewhere that is clean, and this apartment was spotless ! <br/>It also comes with a parking spot, which if you are familiar with Boston, you know is basically impossible to find. Even hotels charge extra fees for parking. I almost wanted to cancel plans so I could sit on the couch in the sun with a cup of coffee (the Nespresso machine is amazing)! The T is literally right up the street, extremely accessible for tourists looking to stay in a quieter area but have complete access to the city. James and Pierre are fantastic hosts, answered my messages/texts right away making sure we had everything we need to make our stay as perfect as it could be. We will absolutely be staying in this apartment whenever we come to Boston in the future!

Great space. Exactly as pictured, beautiful apartment. Exposed brick walls, modern furniture, huge bathroom, and very clean. It is in a private alley off of a quiet street that is very easy to find, and it is steps from the freedom trail which is amazing! There are TONS of restaurants, coffee shops, and gelato shops around and the area is walking distance to almost everything. It's smack-dab in the historic area of town and very close to the water and aquarium. Jose was great with questions and communication. The only cons were the building is very old (yet extremely updated) so there wasn't insulation due to the brick walls, and we could hear our neighbors above and below pretty clearly but it didn't effect our sleep. Also, the lock on the door is automatic and very tricky so it took us multiple tries to open each time we got home. But these things are minor, and didn't effect our experience much. Thanks for a great stay!

Glenn's apartment is perfect! <br/>During our trip to Boston, we stayed in Glenn's place as a party of four. It was roomy, well equipped, very clean   and definitely large enough for all four of us. The building is charming and very typical of the south E scene. We found the location very convenient to get to anywhere in Boston. <br/>Kevin, a friend of Glenn, met us upon arrival and was very kind to stay and point out his favourite spots in the local area. Communication was always clear throughout the stay. <br/>If you're ever in Boston we highly recommend staying here. Thanks Glenn.

This place was a great place to stay because it was right next to the T bus line that will take you straight to the Maverick blue line subway stop. Although we only got to meet Andrew on our last day, he was pleasant and the place was very clean and modern. Everything we needed was available and the view from the back balcony was great. It was a little cold at night, but that mght just be because the nest was trying to conserve energy and also the fact that we're from down south...so we weren't used to Boston-level cold. Overall, the experience was great and I would definitely stay here again!

Tumi was personally out of town as well so a friend of hers let us in. Her friend was also was helpful over text. I loved the location just a block or so away from the T and from there it was a quick ride to Coolidge corner. We were also able to walk to a target, starbucks, and movie theater. Felt very homey. It is on the top floor of the building. But that was fine. The bed was pretty decent. It was nice to have a good home base around all the stores and easy access to the T. Thanks for letting us use your space.

Jose was very responsive to all of my e-mails before my trip. When I arrived the wrong key was in the front door lock box (I was checking in early to leave my things before the guests in my room left) and Jose immediately answered when I told him and was on his way to come let me in when another guest left and I was able to get in.
<br/>
<br/>The  neighborhood is wonderful. I was there for a conference so hardly got to explore, but it was great to feel like I could get a real taste of Boston even with very limited free time.
<br/>
<br/>The apartment was lovely and a great value. Extremely comfortable bed. Shower was great. Didn't need to use the kitchen but it looked very well equipped. Only issue is that it was easy to hear the downstairs neighbors, but they were very quiet so I just noticed when they coughed that I could hear it in the bedroom.

The location can't be beat, and it's reasonably priced for its location. For the most part we were pleased with the place, however it was so noisy we wouldn't stay again. We could very clearly,  loudly,  and throughout the entire night hear full conversations from other apartments and people going up and down the hallway stairs. Also, the heater unit in the bedroom knocked and rattled non-stop. <br/>We did have an issue with the door, and while we were able to sort it out ourselves, Jose was fairly quickly responsive and he also worked with us on storing our luggage before checking in, which was greatly appreciated. <br/>Overall, it's a shame about the noise because we did like the place.

One of the coziest apartments and location I have experienced in Boston.  The fireplace was a perfect accent to a long day walking around.

The space was great - I think it would be the perfect accommodation for groups of friends/couples who were traveling to Boston, as there are a lot of rooms and awesome common space.  I felt very safe in Natalia's neighborhood, and had no trouble finding parking.  While we didn't take the T, it is very close to her home.  I wouldn't think twice about booking with her again - I would just do it!

George was very prompt on his reply to my messages. 
<br/>
<br/>I actually didn't know that George was living on the same apartment but it was cool.  George is a very nice guy. We talked for a while but he had to leave right away to catch a flight. 
<br/>
<br/>Checking in and out was very fast.  He told me to take the free bus ride from airport to the city. The bus ride took about 10 minutes and from the bus station, I just walked about 5 minutes to the apartment.
<br/>
<br/> The apartment was very clean and the room has a very nice view of fish port and sea. Lots of restaurants around and a nearby grocery and Convenience store too. 
<br/>
<br/>Wifi has very strong signal whether inside the room or the living room. It was so nice to work on the living room because of the great view. 
<br/>
<br/>What you see in the pictures are accurate. The bed was very comfortable and both the room and living room have cable tv.  
<br/>
<br/>The washroom was very clean. One thing I must tell George is to replace his bath towel. The one I used had a big hole. But I am a guy so it wasn't a big issue.. BUT if his guest was a female, might be an issue.
<br/>
<br/>I also received a nice gift from George on my second night. He left a gift certificate on the table from one of the restaurants that he manages. Thank you so much for the nice gesture. I enjoyed my dinner.
<br/>
<br/>The residents living in this apartment were very nice and courteous. This is a pleasant surprise to me.
<br/>

I had an amazing stay at Natasha's apartment. It's smack in the middle of Boston in it's most beautiful neighborhood, and you're just steps away from the Common, Downtown, and Back Bay. There are great restaurants, coffee shops, etc nearby and a Whole Foods/CVS a block away.
<br/>
<br/>The apartment itself is as you see in the photos: surprisingly spacious for Beacon Hill, beautifully appointed and just a light-filled, comfortable place to be when you want to escape the city around you.

<br/>Natasha was a dream to deal with, quick and easy communications, and flexible check-in/out.

We couldn't have been happier with our stay here! The apartment was beautiful, and equipped with everything we could possibly need. There was plenty of room for four people.

This is not your typical AirBnB experience at someone's private home. The space was modern, central and had all the amenities of a hotel without the price tag of one.

Mark was a great host, very welcoming.  A quiet space far from the night life, nice for a getaway and easy to explore from there as well.  
<br/>
<br/>Legacy Place Mall in Dedham is not far away, and is a bit like University Village (U Village if you're from Seattle).  Easy shopping and a Whole Foods.  It's right down the road.  Easy access to major highways as well.  
<br/>
<br/>A great place stay.

The hospitality and communication could not have been better. I had an issue with the shower curtain rod that was immediately remedied. I cannot emphasize what an absolutely awesome location this is. When I have to come to Boston again in the future it will be my default location!

僕らは卒業旅行でボストンに来たのですが、Samiさんは快適な宿泊を提供してくれました。ベッドもシャワーも非の打ちどころがありません。Samiさんは必要に応じて僕らの宿泊をサポートしてくれましたし、過度な干渉もありませんでした。またボストンに来たときにはお世話になろうかと思います。あと、ペットとして飼っている猫がフレンドリーで超かわいいです。

My boyfriend and I recently took our first trip to Boston. We wanted to make sure that our host was gay friendly and that it was a chill environment.  Lisa and John were excellent hosts. They were extremely friendly and went out of their way to be accommodating to our needs. They always had plenty of ideas and new places for us to try. The rules were extremely lax and it was easy to get along with both of them.  We would both like to stay with Lisa and John in the future. I highly recommend them!

The rental was perfect! Lovely place on the edge of the North End but close to everything. The apartment itself had everything we needed and it was huge as far as North End standards. Easy to get the keys and check in. Cute little court entrance to the building. Lots of shops and restaurants near by. I am sure we will rent this on our next trip up to Boston.

Marc was a great host, very accommodating and easy going. We booked two nights, but when we told him we may need a third night, he was very flexible. He was very flexible about the check-out time too. Marc responded right away with any questions or help we may have needed. The apartment is the way it looks in the photos. It was comfortable and clean. Cleanliness is the most important thing for us.  Parking was in the driveway and getting around Boston was very easy. Marc was honest about not having a door at the top of the stairs, and warned us there would be construction noise on our last day because they were planning on having one installed for more privacy. We chose to stay anyway even though it seemed like we were in their basement while they lived upstairs. The rental will definitely seem more private once the door is installed, but for the two nights we were there, we didn't mind the curtain. I definitely recommend staying here. Thanks Marc!

My boyfriend and I stayed here for a week and it was the perfect amount of space for us. The location was central to everything we wanted to see and do. We used Uber a few times, only after walking 10+ miles a day sightseeing. The bed was really comfortable and the apartment itself was very clean and well taken care of. We also enjoyed the huge tub. Xerxes was easily available by phone and/or text and followed up with me to make sure we made it in the apartment when we got there a little earlier than anticipated. Overall a wonderful experience that I would highly recommend. Thank you.

The space was very quaint and had nice modern minimal design to it. Great storage spaces if you are staying long and the back yard was beautiful. The night is is so quite, like dead silent quite and we did have an early morning wake up call one morning due to residence above us moving around.
<br/>It was great being close to the T maybe a 5 minute walk which made it easy to get around w/o a car. Also an Uber ride to another spot in town is between $5-$10, great location!

I was met promptly by a representative of Paolo's and she was helpful and gave us everything we needed.  The studio was just what we expected; clean, modern and efficient.  The location was fabulous with many great restaurants nearby and the river right across the park.  The only drawback was the lack of nearby parking.  We did find a lot 5 blocks away and I'm sure $63 isn't too bad for 2 days parking in the city.  We put the car in the lot and used the subway and taxis the entire time.  Overall terrific experience! We would like stay here when we're in Boston from now on!

All other reviews are bang on. Jonathan left the studio in the same condition that it was advertised. Bed was comfortable, the little provisions left were thoughtful and the bathroom, and the room itself was clean and inviting. The real star though, is the neighborhood. Minimal, and scenic walk to the train station and the neighborhood people were very friendly and provided us with advice and help on parking spots, and such.
<br/>
<br/>Enjoyed my trip, and If I ever make a trip down to Boston, would not hesitate staying here again if the room is vacant.

Manuela is a nice, open and friendly woman. During my stay, I was always out all day, so we didn't have the chance for much contact, but I felt very welcome. The Room I've been was bigger than I had expected, but I only used the Bed anyway. There is a shared Bathroom and a shared kitchen. Nothing is to fancy, it is simple but clean. Best thing is obviously price and location. The red line is really just in front of your door, so you're downtown within just a couple of minutes. The little grocery store just on the other side of the street maybe doesn't have the biggest range of goods, but it should be enough for vacation. And only a five minute walk away there is a bigger store. South Boston is not the most shiny part of the city, but it's no dark corner either. Good old working class. One thing you might pre-check: I'm about 6"2 and the bed was a bit to small when I would lay down straight. I didn't say anything because I sleep in somewhat of a fetal position, do it wasn't negative for me, but it could maybe be a negative thing for you if you are a tall person. I enjoyed my time in the beautiful city of Boston, and I can absolutely recommend staying at Manuelas place.

Our host CAROUJ  was REALLY great... Met us exactly as promised... showed us all around the apartment, left the refrigerator stocked with fresh food, drinks, and a ton of beautiful fruit. The apartment itself is PERFECTLY located... you can walk to key downtown spots... or hop on the subway just a few feet away. It was clean, and spacious, and we were VERY comfortable.  Everything worked just fine, and we were exceptionally happy. The brand new gym in the building was a big plus. Loved the nearby shopping (whole foods) - fantastic restaurants... definitely would return.  Spacious, Clean, Well located... at a fair price - can't ask for more... we will return

I am so incredibly thankful that I was able to stay at Tyree's unit during my weekend in Boston. Located in Roxbury, the unit was quite close to downtown, but, because it was located on a dead end/roundabout, we felt like we were miles away from the craziness of Boston (which was welcome after a day of exploring and driving). Our flights were delayed and we had some issues with our rental car, so we were hours late to our meet up with Tyree. Even though she was out when we arrived, she sent us a number of texts explaining how to access the unit and how/where to park. When we gained access to to the unit, the lights were on and music was playing softly - how wonderful after a stressful day! My sister remarked a bit later that she felt really safe and comfortable there and I think we felt that way throughout the whole stay. We had everything we needed, the bed was comfortable, Tyree was only a call or text away (but we never had to reach out), and we always had a place to park. Highly, highly recommend. And, my next trip to Boston, I'm definitely checking if Tyree has availability before booking anywhere else!

The room is very nice and spacious, the third bed is somewhat small, but okay for a short stay. There are I think 2 extra rooms to share the bathroom with, so sometimes there's a wait, but that's expected. Also, since the house is old, though well kept, the floors creak so light sleepers might wake up. Overall we had a nice stay, the train stop is about a 10min walk and only about 15/20min from the city center. I would suggest brining your own toiletries, but towels are provided. The host is very accommodating and give us a short tour or the kitchen, balcony and tv room.

Jonathan is a wonderful host, and his home is amazing.  He was quick to respond to any questions we had, and was very kind and inviting when we met him.  He gave us recommendations of where to eat, and things we could do while visiting the city.  
<br/>We met several other people staying in his home and quickly made friends with the others.  The room was clean and spacious, a perfect blend of luxury and character.  The bed was very comfortable.  We loved the large bathroom, the shower was large and had lots of hot water.  We ended up staying an extra night, and Jonathan had a separate room on the ground floor of the house that he moved us in to accommodate us.  It was also very comfortable and private, and had all the deluxe amenities.  Despite not having a kitchen, Jonathan complimented the room with a small fridge, and other amenities like cereal and water.  
<br/>The area was a great location and was a quick and cheap UBER ride to downtown.  We didn't utilize the local transit, but understand it was very close, and easy to use.  
<br/>Jonathan has several other people staying in his home, from around the world, and we loved meeting them.  Jonathan made a communal meal for everyone on the last night we were there, and it was delicious.  This just isn't an experience you can get in a hotel.  I have to say that the evening dinner was my favourite part of our trip to Boston, even after spending time in the city.  The home and family type environment we experienced was something that will stay with us forever.  
<br/>I would recommend Jonathan and his home to anyone looking for a place to stay when visiting to Boston.  If you haven't yet decided where to stay, just do yourself a favour and hit the button to request to stay here, cause it's totally worth it.  We loved it, and you will too!!!  We will definitely be back, as we felt we came by ourselves, and left with a group of new friends.

Susie was a kickback easy going host. She made me feel really comfortable and was very responsive to my needs. She helped me with specific things that was very comforting and extremely helpful. I basically felt I was living in an apartment, two story apartment within a house. Separate entrance in the back connected to a wonderful patio with a beautiful view of the backyard, trees squirrels birds and flowers delight. The inside is filled with homey objects and colors that connect in a unique way. Full kitchen, smart tv with Netflix and Hulu, Keriug, and large fridge. The area is eclectic, a few minute walk to a street of restataunts, little boutiques and Whole foods. The Jamaica pond about a ten minute walk is a wonderful thing to do, lots of people and kids (of course not in the winter probably) I felt right at home.

For my family's trip to Boston, we chose to stay in Natalia's place based on previous reviews. As previous reviews say, Nat's place is spacious and cozy enough for three of us to stay. We arrived there around 6pm but had no problem to park the car on street and check in the place. Natalia frequently took care of us asking if we're okay and in need anything. She is an excellent bnb host. The place is very near to downtown Boston. It took us less than 15 minutes from Nat's place to downtown Boston by car even during rush hour. The neighbor is pretty much safe and quiet. Free wifi, bottled water, and coffee are provided so you can help yourself. Overall, Natalia's place is very good place for your trip to Boston.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at Jose and Jason's apartment in this historic area of Boston. The key was in a small lock box at the front door so there were no access issues. The rooms were clean and spacious and the bed was really comfortable.  The immediate area is full of Italian restaurants and cafes and there is a laundromat around the corner.  We walked into the main area of Boston each day and caught a train from the nearby station to head out to a tour of Harvard.  Boston is a wonderfully interesting city and this apartment is a great place to stay.
