Nous sommes restés trois nuits pour un long week-end à Boston. Nous étions trois dans le logement, pour la 3eme personne il y a un matelas gonflable supplementaire confortable et qui se gonfle très facilement. Ella et Will étaient très attentifs, disponibles et réactifs. Par exemple, nous avions besoin d'un ouvre boite, nous avons frappé à leur porte et ils nous en ont fourni un. L'appartement est comme un cocon, agréable il correspond à la description faite par les hôtes, le fait qu'il soit sur deux niveaux est pratique pour laisser de l'espace à chacun des invités. De plus, il y a à disposition une farde avec pas mal d'informations utiles (transports publics, sites à visiter, infos sur le logement) et des guides de la ville. Pour la localisation du logement, le centre de Boston est facilement accessible en transport en commun, ce qui permet de profiter pleinement du séjour. En conclusion, nous avons été pleinement satisfaits de notre séjour dans ce logement.

Nice and quiet, very clean.  Never saw John or Dan, but John made sure that I had everything I needed and texted me everyday to make sure that I was alright and if there was anything else I needed.  Close to public transportation and some nice restaurants.

Unique space off the b-line. Loved look of the place, and Victor was generous with his small fridge. Building is a bit of a run down student slum, but this apartment is built up in a unique way.

This was the cleanest and most comfortable airbnb I've stayed at yet. It was nice and warm in the dead of winter, and Emmanuel followed through on his promise of off-site parking, even when that meant shoveling out 100 inches of snow in the driveway before we arrived. I think he may have even come and put fresh salt on the steps early one morning to make sure we didn't slip in these icy conditions. Beds were soft and comfortable, bathrooms were super clean, kitchen was well stocked, and the couch was very comfortable for lounging. Thanks for a great stay!

Michelle is a wonderful host, she was always checking in to make sure we were alrig and we had food. She welcomed me on my first day and show me all the way to the train station and to Longwood Medical Area in spite of the cold and the fact that it was already late in the evening. She baked fpr us sometimes. The house is beautifil, clean and warm and has all the necessary things. I reccomend the place for students completing electives with Harvard Exchange clerkship program, since it is within walking distance to Longwood Medical Area most of the hospitals are. The T station, restaurants and a grocery shoping are also within ealking distance. I had a great time at. Michelle's and hope I can visit again soon

Tiffany made my coworkers and myself feel so welcomed!  First off, the house was beautiful, designed well, and made you feel like you were at home.  The beds and pillows were SO comfortable, we slept like babies.  Tiffany even made sure a DVD player was available so I could do my workouts while on our business trip.  She left us some goodies in the fridge and we made some pancakes in the morning.  She always answered very quickly and gave a bunch of valuable suggestions.  We will absolutely be back!

Notre voyage s'est très bien passé, et nous avons été très bien accueillis. L'appartement est très bien situé, dans un quartier très agréable, et vraiment très proche du centre, ce qui est très pratique - nous avons pu tout faire à pieds, ou presque.

Great location, all basics provided, very comfortable bed.  Floors were a bit creaky, could hear the people above me walking around late into the night.

Top notch Airbnb experience. Miriam is very responsive and is extremely welcoming. The studio itself is clean, well-appointed, and feature-packed! Would definitely stay here again -- I would have stayed longer, if there had been availability! Highly recommended.

Great apartment! Had everything we needed and Jonathan followed up to make sure we got in okay. Would be great to have a hair dryer but everything else was there, very clean and organized and as expected. The building is very nice and in a prime location!

I stayed here for one month (feb 2015). This place is a small and cozy studio with everything you may need while staying in Boston. A full equipped kitchen, a private bathroom and a sleeping area with a table for eat/studio. It has a big deck that I was not able to use due to heavy snow during those month. I used to call this the Hobbit apartment because it is pretty and cosy has the hobbit house. Convenient located near the T and the Bus, you will be at Boston center in 10-20 minutes. The area has everything you may need: coffe shop, supermarket, restaurants, laundry.... <br/>Maria Elena and his family were very friendly but have me all the privacy I needed. <br/>I would absolutely recommend this place to everyone going to Boston and I will definitely stay here if I return again to the city. Is inexpensive, a good value for your money.

I made a great choice staying with Michelle. She was welcoming and helpful which was great being new to the city. The room was really nice and the amenities were great as well with everything one could need. Overall, a great room for short and long term guests.

The location is good with many attractions within walking distance, as well as the T station. It was warm, even in the depth of winter and the big bed very comfortable. The kitchen is fully equipped and there is plenty of space. Definitely a home from home.

Paolo's place has a lovely view of the water and is situated right near everything a visitor to the North End would need. He made arrangements for Ralph from a local reality office to meet me at the building, give me keys and a tour of the apartment. The unit was well appointed and the building, although on a busy street, was quiet.
<br/>
<br/>Paolo was a pleasure to deal with as was Ralph. I would recommend this unit. It's a terrific location, situated on the Freedom trail and close to many restaurants and shops.

The apartment is great and perfect for a stay in Boston. I love staying in the North End. It's right on the Freedom Trail so you can just feel the history all around you.  Jose was a super host and very responsive. I look forward to staying here again on my next trip to Boston.

My girls and I wanted a girls night "in" with cooking, drinking, and alot of laughs! Tiffanys home was accurate to pictures and super clean and cozy. The kitchen was a great kitchen to cook in...gas stove...all the pots and pans spices utensils ...a chefs kitchen for sure. The code to get in was awesome to not have to worry about keys. The bed i slept in upstairs was honestly the most comfortable bed i had been in years! Parking was a little rough but thats just the crazy amount of snow. Neighborhood was ok felt safe just alot of litter. Again might be due to so much snow. We stayed in so it really did not affect us. Tiffany was available to help and answer any question immediatly via text. She left us an awesome welcome basket! We had a great time. Took uber into the city and the T back. Convenient enough! Thank you for everything!

We felt very welcome in Hilary's home. She was very helpful and enthusiastic about her home, neighborhood, and City. Unfortunately I did not have much time to explore the neighborhood and city of Boston due the schedule I needed to keep but Hilary was very knowledgable about what Boston had to offer and had plenty of information detailing the city as well. Her house is very conveniently located and easy to get to and from downtown Boston.

This location is ideal. It is set back from busy streets but easily walkable to public transportation. The room was great with enough space for me and my friend. There was cereal and milk and a private bathroom. We felt so welcomed. The bedrooms, bathroom and small kitchen area are on the second floor so we had our own space. There wasn't any sharing of space which was nice to have privacy. I will definitely stay again.

The apartment was very clean and very open. The pictures really don't do it justice. The neighborhood (North End) was fantastic to stay at, close to multiple T stations and very close to Quincy Market. Jose was very quick to respond to all my questions and the directions on how to get to the apartment were very clear. The location really couldn't have been better, I highly recommend this place and plan to stay there again when I come back to Boston.

My daughter and I stayed in Jose's apartment for 4 days in late February. From first contact José was incredibly responsive, accommodating, and gracious, making many concessions in order to make our stay as stress free as possible. The apartment was perfect for 2, cosy, comfortable and a perfect location for us. We didn't have a lot of time for sightseeing, and because of this great location we just had to step out of the walkway and cross the street to visit the Old North Church. Being able to hear the church bells ring in the apartment was exciting and heavenly! This apartment is on the freedom trail, steps from where Paul Revere and other patriots are buried, and a few blocks from his house. Anything we needed was within a short (although chilly!) few blocks, and returning to our perfectly warm apartment was like coming home. We're looking forward to staying with him again in October. Thank you José for a memorable experience!

What a wonderful condo! We loved the location and convenience of staying here instead of a hotel!  Perfect fit for us and the the bed was so comfortable, I don't think I've ever slept so good!  Mark & Cindy were great!  Thank you for everything!

My stay at the Studio was great! I was attending an event at the Reggie Lewis Center and it was only a five minute walk down two streets! The studio had the necessities, and Jonathan was very accommodating while I was there. The place is small, but for me this is the first studio I've ever stayed in, versus a full apartment. If you have luggage, getting them in and out of the entrance can be awkward (probably because my bags were super heavy), but I made it work! I only saw Jonathan the first and last day but he asked how my event went and was super nice and helped me get my bags in and helped explain the area! I like the privacy of the place, and the private access in the back too. The bus drivers out in Boston are serious too, so if you are taking transportation be ready with a Charlie Card before you get on and know what buses to take. I did a lot of walking even with the snow. I had a great first time in Boston! I would recommend this place!

We had a great trip to Boston to visit my son who lives in Jamaica Plain.  The Greys were perfect hosts.  They were helpful and responsive to our requests.  The apartment was exactly as advertised, spacious, very clean, & comfortable.  Located about a 10 minute walk to the subway made it easy to get around in Boston without a car.  We were grateful for the breakfast items included especially the arrival of the "morning goodies".
<br/>We would definitely recommend this apt to others and look forward to coming back.

This was a good stay. The apartment was just as shown, not big but clean and well-kept. It is a good location - close to transit, with restaurants nearby, and not too-long a walk to several places of interest. Also, the exchange of keys etc. was well-organized. There were maps and tourist books on the shelf. Trouble-free. Thanks!

Our host was "the perfect host!" He was waiting for us when we arrived even though we got in early, had the place impeccably "spic 'n span", with many thoughtful touches (such as Keurig coffee pods, teas, a basket of snacks, hotel style toiletries, and even Spa robes and slippers - the latter of which ensured that the highly polished cherry floors stayed immaculate!)  
<br/>
<br/>The place was exactly as pictured and my husband exclaimed the next morning after our first night there that he felt completely relaxed and "at home" there. 
<br/>
<br/>The location in Beacon Hill is in the heart of a very picturesque neighborhood and we were able to walk to almost everything - cute little shops, nice breakfast places, and good restaurants.  We will definitely be returning the next time our plans take us to Boston!

My aunt and I had a wonderful time. South Boston is a great area with many options for bar/restaurant options. John & Dan's location was a great option for us; close to the Red Line. They were very helpful and quick to respond to any questions we had. I definitely recommend their home, very spacious, and it really felt comfortable.  Thank you for everything Dan & John!!

This was my 4 th stay with the Carney's. And it was my first in this room. Andria's room is spacious and luxurious with it's own bathroom. It is always clean, welcoming and very inviting. The great perk for me in snowy weather is off street parking. the Carney's have always been gracious and helpful .

It's a lovely little apartment. Jose was always available and took care of few issues that came up during our stay. We enjoyed the convenient location right in the middle of charming restaurants and short walk to anywhere in Downtown Boston.

Amazing thing they've done with this space.  It's more like a "whole place" listing because these rooms are walled off from the main hose and I never interacted with anyone on my stay.  In a small space, there's a flatsceen TV with cable (rare amenity at this price point), microwave, minifridge, snacks, hidden closet, desk, and bathroom with shower.  Everything is small and built with space economy in mind, which is just find for me.
<br/>
<br/>I wish the house were slightly closer to the Roxbury Station (actually, I wish the sidewalks were less icy!), but this place is a great value for anyone with a budget who values privacy.

Jose made everything super easy! Apartment was beautiful and very well stocked with linens, soap, and dishware, and keys were easy to obtain and drop off. He was very responsive to any concerns I had, and I would 100% recommend this apartment to anyone visiting the Boston area!

Just needed a place to crash while in town for a convention at the Seaport World Trade Center (about 20 min walk from there to John and Dan's place) and it worked out wonderfully: Dan and John were flexible with my arrival time, they had clean towels available, and the place was quiet at night.

Jonathan was an awesome host and very accommodating with my crazy travel schedule. I had my own newly renovated studio apartment with everything I needed. The place is in a great neighborhood and within a few miles of everything. Jonathan is very nice, professional and an excellent communicator. We had some nice conversations on the purpose of my visit for the Zero Energy Summit on homes and buildings and his thoughts and insight on the subject and what he does.  I would love to stay there again on my next visit!:)

If you want to have a nice stay in Boston and you don't want to be in the Down Town area this is the place to be! It's a very cosy and comfortable apartment with a real 'I'm coming home' atmosphere. Spacious living room with well equipped kitchen (some more glases and plates are welcome). Beds are comfortable and the neighborhood is quit. The apartment is located at a 5 minutes walk from the subway (T) station with good connection to Boston down town and other areas. It is on the top of Fort Hill, so some climbing when walking home from the T-station is required. There was still over 4 feet snow on the side walks but still sufficient parking space in Centre street. We really enjoyed our week at Fort Hill!

Tim was a fantastic host! The place was absolutely clean and perfect. It was quaint and definitely had a beautiful Boston-like feel, with all the amenities that a hotel would provide, to boot! I would definitely recommend staying with Tim again.

Host was accessible and accommodating, as well as flexible with the price off season ;) Fort Hill Inn beats any Boston hotel I've stayed out and I would stay here again in a heartbeat.  Real helpful for a first time airbnb user too!

Tiffany was a very accomdating, welcoming host. The house was completely ready for us to immediately get in and go to bed after a long drive. Tiffany provided access to all the expected amenities and even had extra items for some of the basics we forgot! Tiffany was always incredibly responsive the couple of times we had questions. The house is in a wonderful location, just a short walk (or cab ride) from the convention center and a quick subway ride to Boston's downtown. If we came back to the city again, we'd definitely put Tiffany's place at the top of our list!

While we didn't get an opportunity to meet Trisha in person, she was incredibly responsive and detailed in her correspondence and we had a great stay! The apartment was just as advertised. The location is superb - the North End is beautiful and charming and flush with lovely shops and restaurants (Trisha left us some great recommendations for restaurants nearby, and we tried and loved Pizzeria Regina - thanks for that suggestion Trisha!). We'd happily stay here again!

The apartment was amazing!  Very cozy and upscale.  It was a very comfortable week.
<br/>
<br/>The little things really made it special:
<br/>-Memory Foam Mattresses
<br/>-Washer/Dryer in the apartment
<br/>-Very upscale kitchen
<br/>-Close to the T
<br/>
<br/>Liesl even left me some delicious granola!  Highly recommended if you're looking for a special place to spend some time in Boston

After a reservation I held for a long time canceled on me out-of-the-blue, I was worried I wouldn't find another decent place.
<br/>
<br/>Not only did Jose & Jason have a better price, but the layout of the apartment itself was very nice, and it even had a number of nice appliances in the kitchen.
<br/>
<br/>One thing I would mention, however, is that the walls are thin. From my understanding, that's just how things are in this part of town/these buildings. Still, if you are a light sleeper and are visiting town during a busy time, plan accordingly.
<br/>
<br/>I would definitely recommend this place, though!

I stayed in Nicolo’s house with 2 of my colleagues over a week while we attended an exhibition. The house was a pleasure to stay in and is absolutely unique in terms of décor and style. The house was clean and while Nicolo wasn’t available during the stay there was a great deal of information provided to us, both in terms of the house and the surrounding area. The house was clean and well equipped with modern appliances. The front door operates on an electronic security system and doesn’t require keys which is absolutely perfect if you’re staying with people who you might not always be with. The Charlestown area was picturesque and quiet, though there was a number of small restaurants and stores within walking distance. We walked about during the evening and felt safe. We also had no problem getting a cab using the company recommended by Nicolo and were in downtown Boston within 10 minutes.

Hilary is amazingly responsive. She sent me everything I needed to know before I arrived including step by step public transit instructions for my husband and I (we were coming from separate locations).  She answered all my questions by e-mail very quickly and she answered when I called her by phone as well. She is intelligent, kind, and friendly.  She wasn’t there when I arrived (which she had communicated to me via e-mail), but gave me instructions to use the lock box for the key, left me a note, and book of maps, menus, and brochures, which was very helpful.  The book also included the WiFi password (which works great) and tips about the house (including where she keeps the coffee and tea).  I didn’t need to ask for a thing, she is clearly a seasoned Airbnb host and has this down to a science.
<br/>I would stay with Hilary again and plan to if I’m ever in Boston again. Everything was as expected/described or better.  She has a charming single family old Victorian style home, with all the modern conveniences.  As typical with older homes, the bedroom was on the small side (although seemed bigger than pictured) and there wasn’t a closet.  There is a tall empty bookcase in the bedroom, where we kept most of our things and there is space under the bed for your suitcases.  There were small end tables on each side of the bed as well. My husband was with me and we felt like we had plenty of space.  
<br/>The home was clean, towels were fresh and fluffy, and the bedding was warm and comfortable. The home is heated by a thermostat, but you also have your own room heater (which we didn’t need, the home was a comfortable temperature for us).  She has hardwood and stone floors, which tend to be cold, so if you travel there in the winter bring a pair of slippers. 
<br/>The neighborhood is so adorable! The houses are beautiful Victorian works of art and there is a hipster vibe.  I walked all over Jamaica Plain checking out shops and restaurants that Hilary kindly recommended. Everything is pretty much shut down by 9 or 10, not much of a nightlife there.  But the Orange line, which is walking distance from Hilary’s (about a half mile) runs late and frequently on Friday evening.  It takes about 30 minutes to get downtown on the orange line. To the airport it takes  maybe 45-60 mins, you need to switch form the orange line to the blue line. It was very easy to get around on the T.

<br/>Arkadaşımla birlikte bir hafta misafir olduğumuz tertemiz bir ev. Ev sahibi bizi gayet sıcak karşıladı. Ev sahibi rahat etmemiz için elinden geleni yaptı. Özellikle belirtmek istiyorum, ev çok temiz. Hatta evden ayrıldığımız gün ev sahibi bizi gideceğimiz yere kadar arabasıyla bıraktı. Çok memnun kaldık.

We had a fabulous stay at this location. Our host was organized, communicative, and provided an accurate description of the amenities and features of the property. She helped us map out available parking during the Boston snowpocalypse, provided great recommendations for grocery stores and surrounding activities, and the house was well stocked with linens, staples, cleaning, cooking supplies. 
<br/>
<br/>The neighborhood was very accessible to public transport and walkable to the Boston Convention Center. We had a fifth member of our party and they were very comfortable on the provided air mattress and linens.

Alla was able to make her place available for a last minute rental after we had an unfortunate experience with another host cancelling. Her place is very comfortable and she made it easy to check in and out. She offered change for the laundry, a T card for a discount and even a card to a local restaurant. The apartment was quiet and convenient to public transit. There is lots of light. While we didn't cook meals there, the kitchen was fully equipped. We would definitely come back again!

I was very happy with everything The keys were were supposed to be and apartment warm and cosy It was very cold in Boston on my visit so the fact that the apartment was warm was great.On check out day we had a flight late in the evening and asked Jason if we could store our luggage for the day in the apartment This was not a problem The apartment it self was nice and cosy and had everything we needed The shower was good and everything spotless clean and tidy. I have no complain over the apartment or Jason and will be happy to return to Boston and 2nd Hullstreet again

Apartment was great.  Nice, clean, good price in an awesome area.  Very easy to work out getting there and getting in and out of the place.  5-10 min walk to the T and the North end is awesome for wandering/eating.
<br/>
<br/>We parked at the "Government Center Garage" at 50 New Sudbury St which was a great deal (45$ for 3 days).  You have to buy the ticket online and you have no in-and-out privleges but it's all good because the apartment is so central and the T is great.
<br/>
<br/>Great neighborhood to stay in to explore Boston!

John's apartment is immaculate, and exactly like the photos.  It's fully renovated, and very comfortably furnished.  I especially liked the kitchen and in-unit laundry.  It's nice and quiet in the neighborhood, and a 5 minute walk to restaurants, shopping and public transportation.
<br/>
<br/>John was very attentive and answered questions quickly.  I highly recommend this apartment.

Die Unterkunft ist super. Genug Platz für 1-2 Personen mit kleinem Bad und Küchenzeile. Die Lage ist super in einem wunderschönen Viertel nahe dem Park und viele interessante Punkte in Boston sind zu Fuß erreichbar. Janet ist eine sehr angenehme Gastgeberin. Sie ist hilfsbereit und dabei zurückhaltend. Ich würde auf jeden Fall wiederkommen.

I had a wonderful stay at the Carney home! I stayed in Andrea's room and it was very private, immaculately clean, and the bed was extremely comfortable. Mary & Barney were very accommodating and friendly as well. It's always nice to have hosts that are engaging and easy to talk to. They have a ton of knowledge of the surrounding area. Unfortunately I came in the winter weather, but I will definitely be back for the summer to enjoy the water that's just a short walk away! I highly recommend their home to anyone looking for a safe, quaint neighborhood and family feel for their vacation!

Jessica's house is very nice, like the description. It's close to Savin hill subway on the red T line, 10 minutes from the main sightseen. Near the house there are an irish pub, a supermarket and a cafe for breakfast. The room is spacious, clean, comfortable  and has a beautiful view over the area and ocean.<br/>The bathroom is shared with other guest.<br/>Jessica is very helpful and kind. She gave me all the information about my trip in Boston.<br/>It's possible to use also the kitchen although I used to eat outside.<br/>I had a great experience, I'd like to repeat in the future.

Description and pictures of the apartment were accurate. Very nice sized apartment. Only complaint was that it was SO hot inside and there are no heat controls in the unit. We had the windows open the whole 4/5 days.  Had pots, pans, playes, cutlery, etc. which was great. Location was perfect for us! Lots of restaurants, close to quincey market, the T, could walk to TD gardens and along the trail to Boston commons park. It is right across from a fire hall so be prepared for some sirens!

We very much enjoyed staying at Miriam's place. Our host gave us a tour when we arrived along with pertinent information about contacting them and told us all about the area. They also left some food in the fridge for us to enjoy and had some nice toiletries in the bathroom as well. The studio was very clean and comfortable. The place is a short walk from the T but has TONS of great restaurants in the area to enjoy. Spend a bit of time in the area, you won't regret it. I would definitely rent from them again!

The apartment wasn't the cleanest. The floors were kind of sticky and dirt and dust were in the corners. Checking in and out was easy. If you don't plan on spending a bunch of time in the apartment then it's a good place to stay! It's in a good location, close to many restaurants. Over all I would stay here again.

Albert's apartment was amazing!!! So beautifully appointed and very clean. After a long day of wedding preparation and then the big event it was wonderful to arrive at such a quiet and comfortable place to lay down and get some rest. The sheets were so soft and the huge bed was extremely comfortable. I think I slept better than I have in years! That was my first ever airbnb experience and it was absolutely fantastic! Thank you so much for your quick response and flexibility. You were more than accommodating and I hope to have the opportunity to stay again when I'm in the city.

Our stay was wonderful! We really enjoyed the convenience of being right across the bridge from the North End. Even though it was raining we were able to take a short walk to the sights we were interested in. The whole foods is very close and convenient, as well as some other restaurants. It was cold when we stayed but the electric heaters in each room definitely keep the house plenty warm! With 6 people staying in the house, we appreciated the fact that each room has its own bathroom! However, we did find we wished there had been a bathroom on the first floor. One of our guests had an injured foot, which made going up and down the stairs a little more difficult. All in all, we loved the home and location, we'd stay here again!

I can only recommend Liesl and her apartment. Everything was as described, contact to her was easy and fast. Access to public transport and therefore to all areas of the city is very close by and easy to understand. Neighborhood is very nice and quiet. The apartment is exactly as it looks like on the pictures and equipped with all essentials. Light in the living room is a bit dark, but as we anyway spent most time in the city, we did not really mind. I would definitely one back.

We had an amazing experience at the beautiful Grand View house.  The host was reliable and the Swank app was very helpful.  You can even control the temperatures of the house on it!  The stay was very comfortable with huge rooms and offered everything 8 girls needed.  The location is about 15-20 minutes from downtown Boston.  The best way and cheapest to get around was using the Uber app (approx $20 to dt).  We didn't use the subway about it was about a 10 minute walk away.  Must do is Fenway tour and see Quincy market!

Jeff and his family were helpful at the start of my journey in renting through Airbnb. <br/>When the day had finally arrived, we were welcomed with a basket full of fun, thoughtful and entertaining items (one of which was homemade banana bread-yum)! The place was above and beyond our expectations. It was clean, spacious and felt like home away from home. We truly enjoyed kicking back in their beautiful kitchen, catching up- sharing lots of laughs. <br/>As a family, group of friends- I strongly encourage you staying with Jeff. Him and his family will make your stay rememberable!

<br/>I stayed with 5 friends at Jim's townhouse in the South End and we could not have had a better experience. The house is very charming and comfortable for a group. The neighborhood is ideal, near great shops/restaurants and public transport. Jim was a gracious host and had the house fully prepared for us - stocked with towels, amenities, and even a full coffee pot! Would definitely stay there again and fully recommend the place. A true Boston experience in a great location - much more fun than a hotel!

The apartment was actually better than described.  It's more of a two room apartment than a studio.  It was scrupulously clean and inviting.  The bed was comfortable for me and my wife.  Everything one wanted was there where you would expect it to be.
<br/>Kristina was welcoming and generous. The location in Jamaica Plain was great for us.  There are no hotels even close, and it let us walk to our daughter's apartment in JP.  Also close to Center Street, a street full of nice stores and very good restaurants. Finally, the price was VERY fair for what we got.   In all we would certainly want to go back.

We were given everything we needed for our stay, and if you're visiting in the winter, the fireplace works! Sam herself is sweet, funny and a very gracious host. Our entire trip couldn't have gone better and we highly recommend this apartment to everyone!

Comfortable stay at Dan and Johns place. Really enjoyed the area, just off West Broadway. Great choice of dining on the street recommend the Lincoln very close by. Also loved Muls Diner 4 blocks down on West Broadway for breakfast after which we walked onto the Back Bay area. 
<br/>Dan and John were very welcoming and on hand during our stay. I liked that this property is a house with its own front door, felt very private. Good kitchen facilities too if you like to cook ! Thanks for a great stay. Hope to see you again this summer.

Jose sent us very detailed instructions on how to reach his apartment.  Everything was as described about the flat (note, it is not handicap accessible - 5th floor by stairs).   My only complaint was that it was not thoroughly cleaned after the previous tenants left; however, there was a swiffer there and we cleaned it on our own.  Location is fantastic! We never drove anywhere, and could easily walk to everything.  The Italian area is superb!

My husband and I had a lovely time staying at Helen's! Helen and her husband were so warm and welcoming. Helen even met us outside to help direct us to parking when we got to the residence and took us in and showed us around. The apartment was even prettier than the photographs and had all of the equipment and spices we needed for cooking snacks that we brought. Helen also went the extra mile by having things like coffee, milk, and her amazing homemade granola stocked. In addition to having a wonderful host and staying in a great apartment we also loved the neighborhood. Jamaica Plain is a cute neighborhood worth exploring when you visit Boston and the train was only a 3 minute walk from the apartment so made getting downtown fast and simple.

Jonathan's studio is conveniently located near the Roxbury Crossing T Stop making other parts of Boston easily accessible. It is an ideal temporary spot for people working at Boston Children's Hospital or any of the hospital/research facilities on Longwood (~15 minute walk).

The apartment was great. Roomy and perfect place to stay. We really would love to stay again in the summer, but it's all booked up already! We stayed on the 4th floor, so it was a bit of a hike to get up there but it was fine overall. The lockbox came in handy and the instructions were described really clearly. Jose was very helpful and responded very quickly to our texts. Awesome location in North End. Really is right under the North End Church!

Jonathan's apartment is located in the perfect part of Boston, with the main attraction of Boston Common within a short stroll, and right on the edge of the beautiful, elite Beacon Hill area. The building is secure, with lovely doormen. The apartment was clean and spacious, and provided most amenities wanted. A drawback was that the shower would at odd times suddenly go scalding hot for a few seconds (the only warning being a small change in the sound of the pressure about a millisecond before it abruptly changed). This was unrelated to water use within the apartment. When I gave Jonathan a heads up that the apartment hair dryer was an Australian one (not a problem for us, as we had a converter), he went out and bought a new one and put it in the apartment while we were out. While this was a very prompt reaction, and a nice thing to do, it made us slightly uncomfortable because all our belongings were spread out because we hadn't anticipated someone else being there. Please note that Jonathan asked us to sign a complex legal rental agreement after we had booked (something not advertised pre-booking), which we were wary of because it would have superseded our Airbnb rights. After expressing these concerns, he waived our need to sign it. Overall, though, a good apartment and a fine host.

We just got back from our trip to Boston and could not have been more pleased with our stay in Tiffany's home. Her home is beautiful and clean with modern décor and a welcoming feel. Tiffany provided all the amenities that we could possibly need which made packing much easier for us. The kitchen was stocked with snacks and a bottle of wine for us to enjoy. The beds were extremely comfortable and we had more than enough pillows and blankets. Tiffany provided us with plenty of towels, toiletries, a hair dryer, and we were able to use her washer and dryer. The location was within walking distance to several shops and restaurants and about a 10 minute walk to the subway. Overall, Tiffany was an exceptional host and I would highly recommend staying in her home.

Charlestown (and Boston), MA was wonderful, helped along by our welcoming host Marie! Our family had a great time, walked everywhere (or to the "T", 10 minutes away), enjoyed the local restaurants suggested by our hosts, and we also made use of the full kitchen. We did drive, which can be a hassle in Boston, but Marie's suggestions helped out immensely. We would look to stay there in the future if we make it up that way again! Thanks!

Angela is the best!! She is so friendly, so helpful with everything, I felt really good in her apartment. She helped me with everything that I asked, she offered me a lot of times her food ( she cooks a lot), and I appreciate that so much. She is a person that you can talk about everything. 
<br/>The apartment and the room are like in pictures. The room has a big and comfortable bed , with 4 big drawers under the bed where you can put all your clothes, it's has a lot of space. Besides you have a rack when you could hanging jackets, jeans, etc.
<br/>The neighborhood was quiet, The apartment is just one block to the red line station, and it's takes like 20-25 minutes to arrive to downtown.
<br/>I spent almost 2 month in Angela's apartment, I  recommend the apartment and her host, if I return to Boston definitely would return to this apartment .

Paolo thank you . Your apartment is in a great part of Boston and close enough to everything we wanted to see. The apartment was warm and clean and comfortable with a great view. Getting access to the apartment went smoothly even with a fight cancelation that delayed or arrival and snow. Thank you to all involved. The area seemed very safe to walk around in at night .<br/>Thanks again .

We returned one week later and stayed three days in the comfortable loft of the Hedges. At breakfasts we had a nice time with Kit and Scott and were treated with lovely home-baked muffins and pancakes.  And of course we had lively discussions on a lot of subjects.

comments:
Unit was as expected, namely small and narrow.  What wasn't noted beforehand, was that it was on the second floor, which for me, an almost 70 year old and retired, and recent heart attach victim, at times a little scary.  However, Albert Ho was the perfect host.  He not only helped me upstairs with my luggage, but helped me with directions to my destinations, as well as, introduced me to the home in general so I was comfortable.  He was a gentleman.
<br/>
<br/>Only possibly other negative, was the house was more like a college dormitory room, which needed some house keeping and general household cleaning.  The neighborhood was fine and unit was strategically located.

Terry was very responsive to all of our request. Easy access -4 min walk to the Roxbury T station. Apartment is in good condition. We were able to accommodate 2 adults and four children with no problem. Only one bathroom to share. Neighborhood of Roxbury is not very nice, but this was a very good deal and the location is close to downtown.

We spent two nights at Liesl's two-bedroom in the South End and it was a perfect experience. The apartment is absolutely immaculate, has a well stocked kitchen, and two luminous bedrooms. The building is on  an exquisite South End "square" of bow front brick buildings in an area filled with excellent neighborhoods.  
<br/>
<br/>The host, Liesl, is very responsive, checked in on us to see that everything was up to par, and was kind enough to offer to mail us a phone charger that we left behind. She also provided us with a goody bag of "South End" granola and fruit upon arrival, which was very much appreciated--along with a late check out.
<br/>
<br/>The apartment is about a ten minute walk to the Mass Avenue T stop and very convenient to most areas of Boston. It is a great choice when visiting Boston.

Albert was responsive and attentive, and his place was lovely - fun design, spacious, modern, bright.  Great location, especially if you have a car, as a paid lot is just a few doors down.

Stayed at Emmanuel's 3 Bed 2 Bath home the weekend of Mar 27th to Mar 29th. Took my son, and a few guests to a Bruins, Rangers game on the Saturday of our stay. The location to the city is Ideal. Quick drive to say the least. His home was perfect. More Blankets, Sheets, towels then we ever needed. The Apt. was Clean, and most importantly, cozy. Makes you forget why one would ever stay at a Hotel. Emmanuel was quick to my texts (trouble with the lockbox..my fault) would stay there again in a heartbeat...Thank you Emmanuel for sharing your place.

Atef and his caretaker charlie were very gracious and helpful. The listing is a self-contained spacious underground level apartment. The location is fantastic for those who like to walk and see the city. The apartment is within meters of the historic freedom trail (which is a must). All apartment facilities were good although heating is centrally controlled in another part of the building. During the cold weather the blankets provided and extra heater in the bathroom were sufficient. Overall a fantastic location, great facilities and spacious apartment that is quiet and private. We would love to stay again.

Nous avons passé un agréable séjour et Jose est arrangeant. L’appartement est très bien situé dans little italy tout en étant très calme.  Nous étions 3. Le bruit du frigo et l'absence de porte entre la cuisine, le salon et la chambre nous à un peu gêné.
<br/>Le logement est spacieux, la cuisine équipée, la salle de bain impeccable. Le lit est très confortable et les pièces sont lumineuses (la lumière naturelle nous réveillait le matin).
<br/>Un excellent séjour !

Paolo's apartment was the perfect spot for me. My daughter lives around the corner and just had twins. During this stressful time of premature twins, it meant so much to me to not have to worry about where I was sleeping at night. It was so convenient to be able to be there to help her first thing in the morning (after I had enjoyed a nice cup of coffee that I made for myself in the apartment) and then return at night, exhausted, and fall asleep in the comfortable bed. The apartment was clean and had everthing that I needed. 
<br/>When I arrived in Boston, Ralph walked over to my daughter's and met me there with keys and the necessary info. He was very welcoming and kind.

We had a terrific stay in the apartment for three nights, ended up in one of the studio apartments that's part of the Inn. It was lovely, had a full kitchen, a double bed and a sleeper sofa. The fireplace was a nice touch. Location-wise, the Inn is very close to Roxbury Crossing which is only a few T stops from back bay and downtown Boston. Terry was very responsive whenever we had questions. We will definitely be back soon.

Our hostess greeted us at the door upon our arrival from the airport. Gracious and energetic, though she was on her way out, Antoinette took the time to walk us through her beautiful home, show us our room and where everything in the kitchen, we might possibly need, could be found. 
<br/>Traveling to a new part of the country, my anxiety was eased finding our home away from home to be well appointed, in an upscale neighborhood and just blocks from a fun shopping/eating district. We found it easy to explore all of Boston via public transportation.

What a fabulous first experience on airbnb. Molly and her husband Nik were perfect hosts - so lovely, welcoming, and accommodating. The space was exactly as they described - comfy bed with great natural light, ideal location, funky cool space with lots of art and instruments lining the walls and the hammock was SOOO COOL. My boyfriend and I had our coffee and breakfast (both complimentary and very delicious thanks to Molly's handy pantry) while swinging in the hammock. JP is my new fav Boston neighborhood - a few minutes walk to Franklin Park (go see the forgotten bear cages) and a couple blocks from Midway bar where my boyfriend played a show Saturday (Molly and Nik came to the show and danced with us!). Check-in was seamless - Molly was amazing and really helped us out with an early check-in. Nik gave us some awesome Harpoon brewery tour tips. All in all a totally perfect weekend - fun, relaxing, and exactly the little getaway we wanted. Thanks so much, Molly and Nik! Definitely be back :)

I absolutely loved this apartment! It had so much charm, comfort, nice space, and character. The pictures are all accurate and the experience of living in it was better than I could hope for. I stayed for a full month and was calling it home after a week. The deck is heavenly and is facing a lovely church where Ted Kennedy's memorial was held back in the day. As for the exteriors, it is located on a lovely little street called Worthington, lined up with brown stone 2-3 floor homes with families and young people together, absolutely wonderful. It is literally a 1-2 min walk to the Green line metro stops Brigham Circle and Longwood, as well as the Stop & Shop Market where you can buy groceries. I also enjoyed dining at the Mission Sushi & Thai restaurant and the Penguin cafe in that same area. Anne was wonderful, very professional and made me feel safe and secure. Another bonus is the 2nd floor neighbor who works at the company that takes care of the maintenance of this apt so if there were any problems with heating etc, which there were none when I stayed, he would be there to immediately take care of it. Wonderful experience overall, thank you Anne. I would stay here again in a heartbeat.

This was my first time using Airbnb and I couldn't have asked for a better experience! Victor was very welcoming and made the process run very smoothly. He kept in contact leading up to my trip and gave me suggestions of things to do and places to go. He was there to meet us when we arrived and helped us get settled in.
<br/>
<br/>The apartment itself is just wonderful. My boyfriend and I just loved it. It has everything you could need while you're away from home, and although there's no full kitchen, cooking your own food is still very doable. The location is fantastic - just a minute or so to the Harvard Ave. T station - which makes exploring Boston as simple as it possibly could be. There's plenty to do in Allston/Brighton itself if you don't feel like travelling to the city, too.
<br/>
<br/>I would definitely, 100% recommend this place - and Victor - to anyone looking to visit Boston! So sad to be home!

The host made us  welcome. The house looked as it was on the website and was  comfortable but was smaller than what it looked like on the website. The house is located at the corner of a one way street so if you do not take the right turning it was difficult to get back to the house. My navigation always invariably took us the wrong way.

We just got back from a fantastic stay in Boston's North End.  This condo exceeded our expectations.  The location is phenomenal- amazing food within close walking distance, and the condo sits away from the street (quiet) with it's own private courtyard.  The inside isn't too large, but Cindy and Mark have made the most of the space.  It's divided into three separate spaces: kitchen, living room, bedroom (and a bathroom right off the kitchen).  The old/original hardwood floor is beautiful as is the exposed brick wall in the bedroom.  The paint colors, art, and molding were all appreciated.  The bathroom is gorgeous and the shower water pressure was nice.  The strategically places coat hooks worked well for us too!  The kitchen has all new appliances and I really liked the cabinets.  Speaking of cabinets they were fully stocked with dish ware, tea, and coffee which we indulged in.  They also left us bottles of water and a bottle of wine.  Since there were 4 of us they had plenty of towels available too, towels that were large and soft!  Speaking of soft, the bed was nice and soft and comfy too!  They also left a nice host binder explaining what to see in the city as well as their fav places to eat and a list of need to know places in the area (pharmacy, police, grocery, etc).  I cannot recommend this place enough.  We loved our stay here.  Additionally, Cindy and Mark were very easy to get a hold of and through messaging through Airbnb.  They were quick to respond, very accommodating, and extremely nice!  Thanks again.  Hopefully, one day we'll be back.

Michelle welcomed me and helped me with the big adjustment of moving from sunny Alabama to New England during Boston's snowiest winter on record. She was always incredibly helpful and responsive to any requests, and I thoroughly enjoyed my stay in her house. The room is as pictured--it's small, but always nice and warm (super important!). The area feels safe and is close to public transportation. Michelle will advise you about finding anything you need, from grocery stores to the best route to take places! She even gave me good advice when looking for a permanent place to live in Boston. I stayed with Michelle for about two and a half months, and I had a rotating international cast of roommates, who were all generally respectful and kind. I never had any issues, and I enjoyed our occasional potluck dinners! I would highly recommend Michelle as a host and this room as a great place to stay!

We had the most amazing experience at Gerard and Marie's. The neighborhood was beautiful and the house even more so. We felt right at home in this little apartment. It was great to be able relax on the couch and watch tv rather than lay in a hotel bed and feel lazy. 
<br/>
<br/>Everything was very clean and up to date. There was a lot of light throughout the house and plenty of windows. It felt like there were more accommodations than a hotel. 
<br/>
<br/>Marie was so sweet and even worked with us to get us checked-in early since we had just arrived on a red eye. She left us all the information we needed and offered some great suggestions for the area. We cannot wait to stay here again. It was truly ideal for our Boston trip.

My husband and I enjoyed staying at Meri's place while attending a conference at the Boston Convention & Exhibition Center. The apartment is in a nice, quiet neighbourhood and is well equipped, as described. Several restaurants, bars and grocery store are within 10-15 min walking distance. The weather was not conducive to sitting outside, but the porch must be nice in the summer. Internet was fast and flawless. It was easy to use Uber for getting around (bus line was re-routed during our stay). 
<br/>One reservation were the white marble countertops that need to be covered to protect from possible stains, but plenty of placemats, coasters and paper towels are provided. Also the bathroom, kitchen and living space are on the first floor, while the bedrooms are on the second floor, which was not a problem for us, but may be a concern for people who have difficulty climbing stairs or moving luggage. 
<br/>We did not meet Meri, but everything was arranged before our arrival (access via combination lock for easy entry) and she was  responsive and helpful during our stay. We would certainly consider coming back on our next visit to Boston.

I stayed in Michelle´s house for one month, the first in Boston before finding a permanent place. She is very kind and helpful. She gave several tips for transportation, for places to buy stuff and also to find a permanent place. She made nice breads and muffins and she gave me space to feel comfortable in her house. The description of the room and neighborhood is very precise and she provide a lot of information about Boston. What I don´t like in Michelle´s house is the basement, where the laundry is, it is a bit scary. The neighborhood is generally safe, but I wouldn´t go to Dudley station alone at night.

Lovely home, in a great, safe neighborhood.  Lots of historical sites within walking distance.  Home and room very beautifully decorated, and very comfortable.  Didn't get the chance to use the large jacuzzi tub, as I was in town on business, but it sure was tempting.  Christiane was extremely gracious, helpful, and an all around wonderful person.  Thank you Christiane.  I highly recommend her BnB, and would definitely stay here again!

We were a party of 7 - 2 grandparents, 2 parents and 3 boys aged 8, 5 and 2.  The accommodation was perfect - comfortable and well equipped with plenty of space for the boys.   Lita was a great host and provided us with lots of useful information. The neighbourhood was great with good transport links into central Boston. There was an excellent child-friendly restaurant, Canary Square,  two doors away.

I was in Boston for a conference and decided to stay in an AirBnB rather than book a hotel.<br/>I am so pleased that I booked with AirBnB and also with Jose. The apartment is lovely; warm, comfortable and in a great location!<br/>Jose made the experience wonderfully easy. I knew exactly what I needed to do well in advance of my arrival as Jose communicated everything with me very clearly (and after arriving off the back of a 30hr journey this was really appreciated).<br/>I would definitely stay with Jose in Northend again. The process was incredibly easy and the apartment was beautiful. If you are going to be staying in Boston I highly recommend this place.

A great stay at Vicki's place in South Boston. Easy walking or bus access for the convention centre and downtown. Nice area, lots of nice local bars and restaurants, convenient for grocery stores etc..<br/>Vicki was a great host, came to meet us and check in with us twice, left useful guidance in the house for us, as well as being easy to contact via airbnb for any queries. Would definitely recommend!

Rosalia was such a great host. So helpful with things to do around Boston, sharing of her stuff - even a phone charger (life saver!!!) and super welcoming which led to my stay in Boston being so great and easy.  I felt very safe in the neighbourhood and was within very close walking distance to the pretty Bunker Hill monument and other streets in Charlestown.  The flat and accomodation was very accurate. I would not hesitate to recommend this listing!  Thank you Rosalia.

Jonathan was very helpful and accommodating. His response time was fairly quick and answered all of my questions with clarity. The unit was very clean and we experienced no problems during our one night stay. However, If you don't plan on sharing the bed then be prepared to fit yourself on a smaller couch, but that was also not a big problem. Thanks again Jonathan!

Miriam was a great host!  She was very sweet and went above and beyond any AirBnB place that we've ever stayed.  She responded very quickly to my request and any emails. When we arrived Miriam took the time to show us all the amenities in the studio. She also had set out fruit, chocolates, bagels and cream cheese, coffee/tea, an assortment of water, toothpaste and mouthwash, even laundry detergent for us to use.  It was such a nice surprise and a welcome change as we'd been traveling for 2 weeks already and we're getting tired. 
<br/>My husband and I were traveling with our 6 month old son and the studio was a perfect fit for our little family or a couple checking out Boston.  The studio was quiet, the wifi was fast, and water pressure in the shower was amazing.   We had everything we needed if we wanted to cook, but there are so many great restaurants in the neighborhood that we ate out most of the time. 
<br/>Jamaica Plain is great if you don't want to stay in the downtown. It's super easy to take the subway everywhere, even from the airport. You can spend your days downtown, have a great dinner out in JP, then wander home with a full belly. There are great coffee shops, bakeries, ice cream, pubs and family friendly restaurants; even a Whole  Foods down the street. 
<br/>We'd highly recommend staying here and will definitely come back next time we're in Boston!

Thank you Victor! Your place was awesome. It had all we needed and  even more... beers were waiting in the fridge for us upon arrival!! 
<br/>
<br/>Victor was super friendly and helpful. The place was clean and tidy and the neigbours were very quiet. 
<br/>
<br/>The apartment was located in a really cool neigbourhood of Boston where it was possible to find thrift shops, small restaurants, liquor stores, cafes and much more. It was also right in front of the tram\subway line, which brings you downtown in about 10-15 minutes. It wasn't too far from Harvard University either, which is reachable by foot in less than 30 minutes.
<br/>
<br/>We definitely recommend the place.
<br/>
<br/>Many thanks.

The house was wonderful, a unique experience and fantastic and lovely location in charming Charlestown, with the centre and various sites of interest being walking distance away. Perfect for two or three couples as we were, although the third room is twin beds so could also be good for a family with kids of various ages including younger ones sharing. Also good that two rooms have ensuites and there is the separare third bathroom too. We had to be a bit careful with hot water with six of us showering in the morning but I'm for saving water! The Welcome Guide was helpful and the owners seem relaxed but attentive - it was great to keep in touch before and when needed during our stay, such as when the oven wasn't working due to a tripped circuit from the last guests and Dorothy, the housekeeper, came in to fix it straight away which was great. I recommend this house as a perfect base for exploring Boston.

First of all, this rental is a full unit rental, so you don't need to, and most likely won't interact with the owner at all.  I don't have the slightest problem with that.  If anything, made the stay more comfortable.
<br/>Everything is handled via emails and a custom app for the rental, which is modern and convenient: you can check in in the middle of the night if that's what's your schedule is like.
<br/>The price is better than most hotels.
<br/>The units is huge! For Boston standards at least.  Has two rooms, bathroom, living room, dinning room, kitchen and a small room on the back.  The view of the city is also quite good.
<br/>Warning to older travelers: it's on a third floor, and no elevator since it's an old building.  So if you are carrying huge luggage you might struggle.
<br/>Dorchester might not be the best neighborhood of Boston, but this particular area of Dorchester is quite good: it is safe, reasonably clean, reasonably close to the T (and there are buses there too if you don't want to walk), close to a shopping mall (which includes a grocery supermarket) and to several small restaurants (next to a very good one actually).
<br/>I would definitively stay here again.

What an utterly fabulous experience! Cannot recommend this beautiful apartment enough. Terry was a fantastic host and clearly takes a real pride in being an Airbnb host. The location is on a quiet street within easy walking distance to the T. Great amenities too - great wifi, comfortable bed, and although I didnt use it, there is a little deck in the back that would have been great for coffee or tea in the morning had it been warmer. I highly recommend this apartment and will definitely stay here or at another of Terry's properties on future trips.

This was one of the most comfortable places I've stayed. The Carney family was gracious and friendly and provided more than they needed for my comfort. The room was spacious, clean, and comfortable. The kitchen allowed me to feed my tea addiction. I loved the homemade granola and muffins for breakfast. And the view from the back porch was beautiful. I also met some really great people in the house who were fellow travelers. I would highly recommend this room for anyone who loves traveling, but also enjoys the comforts of home.

Hay dos estaciones del metro cerca, North Station y Aquarium, aunque en el mapa parece retirado, no lo son. En el departamento hay guías para visitar Boston, las cuales nos fueron muy útiles.

A fantastic apartment in lovely Beacon Hill- we were so glad we stayed here rather than in a downtown hotel. There are lots of nice places to eat on nearby Charles Street and Boston Common is minutes away.  Breakfast at The Paramount was fab! <br/>The kitchen in the apartment is well set up with everything you would expect though we didn't really make use of it.<br/>Paul was a great host- quick to respond to questions. Collecting the key was straightforward and everything was set up as described. The beds were comfortable- a great sofa bed.<br/>This was our first Air B&B and we loved it.<br/>

We had a great time at Jonathan's place. We didn't get the chance to meet him but he communicated very well and it was easy for us to get into the apartment. The private studio is small (perfect for 2 people), but very new, cozy and very clean, exactly as described. Jonathan had left maps of Boston and a metro card for us. The neighborhood itself is quiet, residential, and Roxbury subway station is less than 10 min walk from the apartment. We would definitely recommend Jonathan's studio!

The best part about this listing is the kindness and concern of the hosts - Adriana and Gianni. My son got sick on our trip and they helped us find care for him - even driving us to the emergency room to get a doctor. We really appreciated their help. The apartment is simple and a nice size for two people. It has all the basic requirements necessary to feel comfortable during a stay. It is fairly close to the T - with a walk uphill from the station. It was a nice distance from the center of Boston - made us feel like regular locals!

This was a very positive experience for us.  The description was accurate.  We had a little trouble finding the entrance, because we did not know you enter from the rear.  Everything was very clean and well-maintained.  Host had even put some food in the kitchen for us, as well as leaving some chocolates on our dresser!  We did not meet host in person, possibly because I had told her that we were looking for privacy.  We were able to park right outside our apartment, which was really nice.  Overall, would definitely recommend this apartment and this host.

The entertainment set was awesome too. There were hundreds of channels to watch from the TV plus Apple TV and high speed wifi.

This was my first airbnb experience.  It was extremely simple.  The contact Ralph met me at the apartment with the keys and showed me around.  The apartment was clean and comfortable although you have to be prepared for that walk to the third floor.  It is conveniently located within walking distance of the heart of the North End so I was able to enjoy the dining experience and the view is very nice from the apartment.  There was a little noise from the upstairs tenant as they had company watching a sporting event the first night, but aside from that it was enjoyable.  I would definitely do it again.

I worked for 6 months in Boston and lived with great pleasure in the tower apartment of Eva and Matt. It is a characteristic building with a lot of nice and quirky features. The two rooms in the tower make it an apartment that I loved. The bedrooms are spacious and both have good beds. Kitchen is well equipped and what I missed was quickly added by Eva. Didn’t miss the TV because the internet provided me with enough TV shows from the US and the Netherlands. Franklin Park is just across the street and it is just a 10 to 15 minutes’ walk to the orange line on the T. From here it’s another 15 minutes to downtown Boston.
<br/>Eva and Matt both are very friendly hosts that are very helpful and will come to your aid if you ask. Also Eva’s parents are lovely people and it was an honor to meet them and have one Friday dinner together.
<br/>I am returning to Boston later this year and this place is already rented so I cannot return. Otherwise I would!

Photos are exactly accurate.  A very nice lower level apartment (host lives in upstairs apt.) in an old charming house.  Host set things up so clearly that we never even needed to contact her while we were there. But she graciously checked in via email to be sure all was well. They left a very helpful info sheet about the apartment, places to eat and transportation info.
<br/>We were 4 adults and the place sleeps 4 with a normal queen bed and queen sized couch pull out.  
<br/>Other extra stuff: Nice hot powerful shower!  Good heat for an old house that you can control (it was cold & rainy while we were in Boston, so this was key). Very clean. Soft sheets. Coffee, condiments & equipped kitchen available. A nice rack of tourist maps & info in the kitchen.  No need for a car; train and water taxi are 15 min. walk from apt. (Water taxi to downtown only $3.50, runs frequently, took about 15 min. and fun for us out-of-towners.)
<br/>Go to Warren Tavern if you're looking for a nice, quaint, close neighborhood bar. 
<br/>All four of us gave it a thumbs up and would definitely stay here again.

I would definitely recommend this property and would stay here again if we come back to fabulous Boston.we also took Damons advice and booked uber taxis to get to and from the city.

It was so nice to have a fully equipped kitchen and we loved that the bedroom and bathroom were separate from the living area - a rarity in Boston! 
<br/>Alex was quick to respond to any questions we had and made us feel very welcome in his home. We loved the neighbourhood and free parking was a bonus. 
<br/>We will definately stay with Alex and his family when we are back in Boston.
<br/>Thanks for being such a gracious host!!

the apartment was ready when promised and the representative was polite and informative.  The location is great--in the North End near the Italian restaurant district and close to the TD Garden where the games we came to see were held.  The place is cozy but perfect for what we needed. You do hear some traffic noise but not horribly so.

Our stay at Liesl's apartment was simply great. The Silver line is less than a block away, it makes it really easy to get to downtown. Newburry street is a 10-15 min walk. All the essentials are provided. The place is spotless. I would recommend this place in a heartbeat.

We enjoyed our first Airbnb stay at Hamed's place over a long weekend in Boston. Hamed was a great host. Open communication with Hamed made it easy to check in/out and ensured that we had everything we needed during our stay. He took genuine interest in making sure that we had a positive experience from the moment we booked with him. It is a beautiful and spacious 2 bed/2 bath with a great view and is located in a fantastic area of Boston. Everything we wanted to see was either an easy walk or short rail/taxi ride away. Thanks Hamed!

Trisha's husband met us at the place and gave us some great recommendations on places to check out near the area.  The house was immaculate and comfortable and in prime location! They both were extremely professional and timely and I would definitely recommend this listing to others who are looking to stay in Boston's historic north end!

Apartment is exactly as shown in the listing photos and was very comfortable. This is a ground floor apartment and the friendly hosts live upstairs. Marie met us when we arrived, but everything in the apartment was so well set up that we had no need to reach out to our hosts again.
<br/>
<br/>Apartment is light and airy with nice high ceilings. The bedroom is quite roomy and the bed was comfortable. I can't speak to comfort of the fold-out couch, but our kids who slept on it didn't complain. Coffee (and coffeemaker) was provided and the in-apartment washer/dryer (with detergent provided) was very handy.
<br/>
<br/>The neighborhood was great! Don't worry about the reputation of Charlestown as a "rough" neighborhood -- watch Ben Affleck's movie "The Town" (a DVD of which was provided in the apartment) to see what I'm referring to. Our experience was that the neighborhood is quite gentrified. We never felt unsafe walking around, and the folks we encountered on the streets were all quite friendly.
<br/>
<br/>It's easy to get around via the "T" (light rail/subway) with a stop about a ten-minute walk away or the bus with a stop just a block or two from the front door. There's even a water taxi that will take you from the downtown Boston waterfront directly to Charlestown (near the U.S.S. Constitution). We didn't have a car, but it appeared that finding nearby parking could be a bit of a pain. I would suggest skipping the car if you're just in town as a tourist.
<br/>
<br/>The Bunker Hill Monument which is the northern terminus of the Freedom Trail was just two blocks away. Climb to the top (294 steps) for a bit of a workout and some great views of Boston and the surrounding area. Whole Foods is nearby and on the way from the T stop. The Warren Tavern (oldest in the state?) was a nice, nearby spot for a tasty dinner -- it was crowded (and loud) on a Friday night, but how often do you get a chance to eat/drink in the same spot that George Washington and Paul Revere did?
<br/>
<br/>Great place to stay to explore a really fun city. We'll keep this place bookmarked if we have reason to return to Boston.

Our host was quick to respond to our AirBnB request and provided us with all of the information we needed soon after.  The instructions were clear and everything from getting keys, storing luggage, finding the apartment, and checking out went well.  The Adam's Apartment in the North End was clean, comfortable, and located in a great location for a family to walk and explore historic Boston.  We were a ten or fifteen minute walk from two T public transit stations and within easy strolling distance of several great restaurants, cafes, the historic Freedom Trail, and famous Mike's Pastry on Hanover Street.
<br/>
<br/>Four of us stayed in the two bedroom, two bathroom apartment and although we never felt cramped, please note that this is North End Boston and you shouldn't expect a lot of space.  The apartment is just as nice and just as big as it looks in the pictures (and no bigger).  It is a great place to relax after spending the day and night on the town, though, and the kitchen is just big enough for some breakfast or an easy meal.  It was certainly better, though, than what we would have gotten had we sprung for two hotel rooms.
<br/>
<br/>If I revisit Boston, I'll look up Dror's other locations.

Adriana and Gianni were very sweet, and the house was perfect for two people. Our flight got delayed well into the night, and they were very understanding, still greeting us at 2AM with a bottle of sparkling water. The house was clean and very spacious for me and my husband. The kitchen was nicely stocked with all the utensils and dishware we needed to make smaller meals, and the bathroom had plenty of spare toiletries. The location is great! Quiet and close to a bunch of neat stuff in Jamaica Plain, as well as the T stop. Next time we visit Boston, we'd love to stay here again.

Jose touched base with the required check-in information shortly before our trip as promised.  He also allowed us a little flexibility with our bags upon checkout which was nice since we had a later flight.
<br/>
<br/>The location was perfect, the apartment was clean and Jose remedied a couple of minor issues very promptly (lights burn out in the kitchen, t-paper).
<br/>
<br/>As someone else had mentioned, the walls/floors are very thin.  We could tell what the people were watching on TV downstairs on the first night, so we kept that in mind.
<br/>
<br/>I have heard that the North side can be a bit noisy in the Summer, but I think this apartment is imbedded into the neighborhood enough that it wouldn't be a problem. 
<br/>
<br/>I would stay here again.

The apartment was just as described.  We had plenty of room (the bathroom was a little small, but putting the small end table in helped with space to put things).  The neighborhood was good, and close to everything.  We had one small "snafu", but it was taken care of in minutes, and we even got a follow-up call shortly after from Dror to ensure we were taken care of to our satisfaction (we were).

I and my friends were very happy with our accommodations and Hermina's place. We stayed in the attic room (C). (The house has several other nicer bedrooms that may be available - lots of options for different size groups.) 
<br/>Room C, as advertised, was minimalist but it was a big open space and had plenty of room for the three of us to sleep and spread out our stuff (slanted ceilings so not a lot of head room for the large amount of floor room). The staircase to the room is very steep and the bathroom is one floor below so don't stay in this room if you would have a problem with those things. There are also only a few outlets in the room so don't plan to plug in a lot of electronics.
<br/>The kitchen, dining room and living room are very nice and the bathrooms are clean and functional. 
<br/>The neighborhood was okay with a few bars and restaurants, a grocery store, liquor store and other shopping. We picked up groceries and made breakfast each day. The kitchen is well appointed and well organized. The only problem with the neighborhood is that there are usually people hanging out in the area of the shopping center. If you find this type of environment uncomfortable you may not be entirely happy with the neighborhood but we did not have any trouble with anyone other than minor annoyance from a pan-handler. Note that the house is next to the police station so it is in a very safe place.
<br/>The subway station is just a few blocks walk from the house - less than a 5 minute walk. Public transport is the way to go in Boston - you can get a 7 day pass for $19 that gives you unlimited use that even includes the inner harbor ferry. I found this subway stop just as convenient for my needs as when I have stayed near the Back Bay stop - yes I had to plan additional time but it was just as easy to get to all the places I visited.
<br/>If you will be driving to Boston for your visit you will be happy to hear parking is simple near Hermina's place. Street cleaning rules only make you move your car once every two weeks so it should be easy to arrive, park and not worry about your car until you need it.
<br/>
<br/>I will most definitely stay at Hermina's place for future trips to Boston. Most likely I will stay in one of the other rooms but I was very happy with my stay in Room C for this visit.

Liesl is a very welcoming host.  She had the apartment clean and ready for us by the check-in time.  Liesl was very helpful with advice on the area and made contact throught our stay to make sure we were alright.
<br/>
<br/>The apartment is in the South End part of town.  There are a few restaurants and grocery stores in the neighbourhood, however there is very little to peak a travellers interest within 15 minutes walk.  There is a bus stop 30 seconds walk away.
<br/>
<br/>In the lower level of an old Brownstone building, the apartment was lovely and modern looking inside.  We had all the amenities we needed - kitchenwares, towels, extra blankets, large washing machine and clothes dryer.  Heating was good throughout.  There was very basic cable on tv, however there was a Roku box with HBO Go and Netflix etc.
<br/>
<br/>The apartment was 2 bedrooms with queen beds, a bathroom, laundry, kitchen and living area.  It was large enough for our family of 4.
<br/>
<br/>If you are looking for somewhere quiet to stay just outside of the downtown area I would recommend Liesl and her apartment.

The instructions on how to get in were easy to follow, and the apartment was as described.  The entrance to the (lit, safe-feeling) alley where the building entrance is is right across from Old North Church, which is really cool! It is steps from the Freedom Trail, blocks from amazing Italian food, and about a half mile from the nearest T station.  The bathroom could have been a little cleaner, but all in all, a great place to stay.  I would stay there again.  I also highly recommend Theo's Cozy Corner for breakfast, about a block away.

I arrived to Michelle's home on my first evening in Boston. I was also my first evening in the U.S. and my first time on airbnb. Being a wonderful host, Michelle did everything to make me feel welcome. She gave me valuable advice and support (a reference!) in my search for permanent housing, and everyday life in Boston. During my stay, I really felt at home. At the same time, I had just as much privacy as I needed. The room and common areas (shared with another two visiting students at Harvard) were clean. I spent there 8 nights and the only thing is could regret is not to have booked the room for a longer period.

My husband and I and our 9-year-old son just got back from a great 4-night stay at Ella & Wills sweet little flat. It was the perfect size to kick back in after a day of touring the sights, with everything we needed to prepare our own meals (complete with the tea, coffee, and milk that was provided for us). The bed upstairs was very comfortable, as was the air mattress that our son slept on. We had no problems finding on-street parking at the end of the day, and the neighbourhood was nice and quiet. The flat is only a short walk away from the centre of Roslindale village where we found several great restaurants, a grocery store, and more. The commuter train into Boston was also only a 5-minute walk away and took us 25 minutes to get downtown during the week. Ella & Will were also the perfect hosts - very prompt responses to all of our questions, and provided great information to us when we arrived on how to get around. We would highly recommend Ella & Wills place to anyone looking to travel to, or stay in Boston!

A gem on Beacon Hill is what we found in many ways. Our family converged in Boston for a medical emergency. We needed a place that would be centrally located in a good area with space to accommodate a large family. We found that and much  much more with Gloria and her apartment.  First, because of the nature of the medical emergency we did not know when we would be able to take possession of the apartment. When we explained our situation to Gloria, Gloria and her staff offered to be available at whatever time things became stable at the hospital. True to their word, they met us at the apartment at a late hour and were very accommodating. The apartment itself is a lovely, bright apartment with grand areas. Although the apartment is large enough to receive guests it still has a cozy feel to it. Our family came together as a group there during the emergency. The apartment also became the place where our daughter came to after the  surgery. Being there in that environment was very positive for her and all of us. The apartment is situated in a perfect place. Within steps you have all of the conveniences that you could want being in the heart of Beacon Hill. The apartment is central to virtually everything in Boston yet provides a quiet haven free from the hustle and bustle a City can bring. Our family plans to return soon to celebrate our blessings.  Manny and Family

We enjoyed a number of nights walking to the North End for dinner and cannoli. It was a super plus that the door had a touchpad lock - saved us from bringing keys with us everywhere!

All arrangements in advance of taking up residence in John's apartment in West Roxbury, the location, and of course the apartment itself, are top end in all ways. Keyless code-controlled access, wifi, in-house laundry facilities, luxurious bed linen, fantastic TV options etc are all exactly as described. Even better than advertised though is that West Roxbury is a wonderful, welcoming neighbourhood, well equipped with a top class local coffee and donut shop, pub & restaurant, walking/running tracks and reputable food/fashion stores within 5 minutes by car. Value for money is at a level difficult to match for Boston/Cambridge. Commute to downtown is approximately an hour by car - it's a small sacrifice for such top-end accommodation.

This place is WONDERFUL!!!  Jose was very attentive prior to our arrival by providing us with instructions to access the apartment and access the key.  The location of the apartment is by far the most wonderful location in all of Boston.  Right outside the apartment is the Old North Church, and the apartment is right in the heart of the North End with fabulous bakeries, restaurants, and shops.  The apartment was spotless, the wifi worked perfectly, and there was plenty of hot water for showers.  The location was quiet from street noise.  If you are driving to Boston, please note that there is no street parking available, so you will have to put your car in a city lot ($34.00 each 24 hours).  However, the lot is down the street and easily convenient.  Having lived in Boston and traveling to Boston often, staying in Jose's apartment gave us new insight and a new Boston experience like never before.  We would definitely stay here again!!!

You can catch the T Green line immediately outside the front door and get to downtown Boston and the Quincy Market area in 20mins. The studio is clean and comfortable and Victor is awesome do deal with. Thanks for everything Victor! I'll definitely contact you if I go back for next year's Marathon.<br/>Cheers,<br/>Bernie

We found Martin and Barbara's home to be nicer than advertised. Martin met us and showed us around and we happened to meet the housekeeper at that time. They were very responsive to all inquiries before our visit. We didn't need to contact them during our stay, but I am confident we could reach them easily. You are truly a guest in their home and they are incredibly hospitable! Martin left us with very gracious welcome gifts on the dining room table and left some small stockpiles of candies for the kids. The place was very clean and tastefully decorated. The kitchen has everything you need and more. You could crawl to the commuter rail station. The T lines to Boston are a short drive away. Dedham has lots of retail to offer and Jamaica Plain has plenty of restaurants to choose from. I do not hesitate to recommend. 
<br/>
<br/>For those with kids, there is a neat little playground at a school about 100 feet away. Note there are lots of breakables around so it may not be suitable for younger toddlers without doing some pre-emptive rearranging upon arrival.

Kevin and Joanne went above and beyond in their hospitality.  They made us breakfast, offered us parking behind their house, and gave helpful tips for navigating Boston on a busy marathon weekend.  All in all, we had a great experience in their home.

Hamed was a wonderful host. He was very responsive in our communication leading up to and during our stay. He was also very welcoming, stocking the fridge with beers for us to enjoy. He made check-in and check-out seamless. Best of all, he accommodated my late check-out request so I had time to get a shower and some down time in after finishing the marathon and before heading home!
<br/>
<br/>The apartment is as gorgeous as the photos suggest. Very modern but still quite cozy and comfortable. The space is large enough for two couples to enjoy with plenty of privacy. 
<br/>
<br/>The location could not be better, the shops and restaurants of Newbury Street are literally at your doorstep. For our purposes, being there for Marathon weekend, we couldn't have been happier with the location. Steps from the Convention Center and five minutes from the finish line. 
<br/>
<br/>I would definitely recommend Hamed's place for anyone traveling to Boston.

I ve recently visited Boston with my bf and we were hosted by John( his brother was away). He was very nice and friendly and made our stay very pleasant and comfortable.
<br/>The apt was clean,we stayed in a small room with the queen size bed but had an acces to all parts of the apt so it felt pretty homie.
<br/>The neighborhood is old but interesting- so rounded with trendy,cool bars and restaurants and also has a pretty easy acces to the downtown area.
<br/>All in all we had a good time staying with John,I would gladly recommended.

I came to Boston for the marathon and found this quite special place. Comfortable room and bed at a most reasonable price, but with a extremely kind and welcoming host. Michelle makes the most delicious baked muffins, sweet buns etc. We had delightful conversations, and she couldn't have been more helpful in directing me to places of interest including the magnificent Boston Museum of Fine Art and the Isabel Stewart Gardner Museum both within walking distance. She even helped with my bags on the way to the train when leaving. Michelle was the perfect host for my visit to Boston. I would recommend this BnB without reservation.

I stayed with Rosalia for a short time while visiting Boston to run in the Boston marathon. Truly a pleasure to have stayed with Rosalia during my time in Boston. Rosalia is all that you would want in a host; pleasant, friendly, accommodating, helpful and good natured. It was like walking into an old friends house. Such a great host. Rosalia made sure I had everything I might need, offered up her place as my own and made sure I knew how to get to where I was going. I needed some flexibility with my check out time and Rosalia was kind enough to consider and accommodate. Rosalia even took some time to show me around Boston and join me for my post-race celebration! Like I said, it was like hanging out and catching up with an old friend. <br/>The flat, room, location and neighborhood is exactly as described and, as Rosalia will tell you, there are easy ways to get around from her place. Rosalia's place has everything you might need or is within short walking distance to where you can get it. Room and restroom were tidy, as was the rest of the place. <br/>Communication with Rosalia for booking and throughout was spot on. <br/>

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay on Beacon Hill! The place was exactly as pictured and described and VERY clean and tidy. Jay was extremely responsive and friendly. He was also very flexible, allowing us to drop off our luggage before the designated check-in time so that we could begin enjoying Boston. We also met his cleaning person, Jess, who made the place look great and was very friendly. She gave us some very helpful information for using the T, which is a short walk from Jay's place. The building was secure, and the location fantastic. We walked nearly everywhere. I would definitely stay again!

My husband and I were in Boston because I was running the Boston Marathon.  We had no trouble finding the studio and we had Ralph (from the local real estate) that came to meet us.  He is a very nice man and he was able to explain everything we needed to know.  The studio was exactly what we expected.  It was clean and we had all the advantages with the kitchen, extra towels, internet...  Nice neighborhood, especially being so close to the waterfront.  It was nice to run there.  We were able to walk everywhere; lots of restaurants walking distance.  We had a very nice time.

We enjoyed the house and the neighborhood.

We had a wonderful stay at Cindy and Mark's condo! Myself and 3 friends were in town to run/spectate the Boston Marathon.  The condo was perfect for our group.  Very cute, clean, easy to get to and safe.  The food in the neighborhood is AMAZING! But we also used the kitchen to cook.  It had everything we needed for a pre-race pancake dinner :)  Cindy was also extremely helpful and responsive.

Stacy was a perfect host! She had everything ready to go for when we arrived, which was a little earlier than usual as we were there for the Boston marathon and wanted to drop our stuff off so she was very accommodating. The pictures online describe exactly what you will see when you enter her beautiful home! The surrounding area is just beautiful and very close to anything you wish to get to in Boston. I will definitely be staying here again if I am ever in Boston for a holiday. She checked in occasionally to make sure everything was going well and let us take our time leaving after the marathon. Great stay, would highly recommend!

Couldn't have had a better host for my first airbnb experience than Hilary and her daugther (and their dog). Immediately felt like home - Hilary showed me around the house and handed me an extensive and well prepared folder with maps, restaurant tips, excursion information, etc. It's been a pleasure to have her around for a chat.
<br/>I stayed in Boston and took part at the marathon in 2015 - Jamaica Plain was the ideal area for getting a good rest in a quite area of Boston but also to get to the city center in just 15-30mins.
<br/>A personal hint: Try out some of the local services, Jamaica Plain has to offer: grocery stores, coffee shops, ...
<br/>Looking forward to another Boston marathon in the upcoming years - and I'll definitely check out Hilary's place for availability first.

My family and I just stayed here for the week up to and including Marathon Weekend!   This was my first airbnb experience and it was a great one.  
<br/>This place is awesome.  Clean, bright, and comfortable.  The back patio is great to chill on and gets some nice sun.  For me, being so close to the water makes it the best location ever.  I went for amazing runs along the Harborwalk (while my family walked).  Running around Pleasure Bay is super cool!   We took the city bus right outside for quick transportation downtown.
<br/>The only things I missed were a bathtub and, because I was visiting from another country, a local land line would have made it easier to call taxis, order take out etc...  BUT, even without a bathtub, the bathroom is spectacular and the shower is beyond.  I just wanted to shower all the time!!
<br/>Meri, though we didn't meet, rocks.  She kept in touch and checked in with me during the week to make sure everything was cool (which it was).  The whole neighborhood is very friendly and on a few occasions, gracious locals were happy to point us in whatever direction we needed.
<br/>All in all, loved it!  Stay here, it's amazing!

This was an upstairs of a duplex in a quiet yet active part of Boston. We never heard the downstairs residents. The home is open, warm, cozy and quaint. My two daughters, 1 son-in-law and I felt we were in their older sisters home. There was clear written information re. restaurants, transportation, things in the home (appliances, heat, etc), a basket of goodies, and of course the delicious signature banana bread (with choc. chips) noted in other reviews. The home was very clean, warm, and welcoming. They had made up 3 queen/king beds for us and we all slept well. They do not have WiFi  but gave us other options if it was needed. Our host was available via phone and responded in a reasonable timeframe. 
<br/>We were there for the B Marathon so lots of people in town. They can park in any direction on these streets but we always managed to find a spot not far from the front door. 
<br/>Jeff is right the bus stop is right next to  the house but not on the bedroom side of the house. It was very quiet at night. 
<br/>We highly recommend this place!

GREAT location surrounded by Italian restaurants and small shops, boutiques. Very clean apartment and a good size. We had one person in the bed and one person on the couch, and it worked out great with enough privacy between the rooms, without being shut off from each other. We had a small issue with finding towels and sheets for the third guest at the beginning, but I contacted Jose and he sent over what we needed within an hour.

Great place to stay for a quick weekend.  Apartment was right-sized for two people and kitchen was well equipped.  The weather wasn't great during our stay so we didn't get to enjoy the deck but think that would have been nice.  My trip was quick and I had a lot of things going on so didn't get to meet Jessica but she did reach out regularly to see if we were OK or needed anything.  It's not downtown, but it's tucked away in a lovely neighborhood with locals, which I prefer over downtown hotels, and accessible from the red line.  I'd stay here again.

The location is great! Very nice area and close to the Haymarket T station. Beds were comfortable, nice clean sheets and towels. Very nice kitchen and bathroom. Furniture is definitely worn, but sufficient. The main issue was that the heat is controlled for the whole floor, so you can't adjust it. We had to leave the windows open the whole time, which meant there was a decent amount of noise. Check in and out was very easy, great communication! Thanks!

Alex's place was just as described by both Alex and many reviewers - clean, spacious and recently modernized. Very short walk to the T which was only about a 20-min ride into downtown (or 5 min over to Sam Adams Brewery in the other direction). We very much enjoyed the stay and will definitely stay again the next time we return. Alex was a great host too - stopped by to make sure everything was going well. We even took him up on buying his pair of tickets for one night at Fenway - AMAZING seats (do it if you have the chance). Would definitely recommend staying here!

Christiane is a gracious, accommodating hostess. She served breakfast every morning and, while the kitchen was not available to us, she provided snacks and would prepare coffee or tea if we saw her in the afternoon or evening.  Christiane provided abundant tourism information, maps, bus schedules, etc and even museum passes. 
<br/>
<br/>The location is wonderful; within view of the Bunker Hill monument, around the corner from the bus stop and about 0.5 mi from the T station. It's a quiet, residential neighborhood of charming row homes.  
<br/>
<br/>The spiral staircase to the waterfall bedroom is very narrow and rather steep and probably would not accommodate anything larger than a carry-on suitcase. The house was built in 1885 and has lovely stained-glass windows. There is very limited floor, counter and shelf space available since there are many pieces of furniture, collectibles and household items. The TV/DVD players in the living room and bedroom and extensive DVD collection are available to guests. Christiane made us feel very welcomed and we thoroughly enjoyed our Boston visit.

The subway is right across the street so it is very easy to travel to the city. I felt extremely safe traveling alone.   There are restaurants, Dunkin Donuts, etc. within walking distance should you decide to eat nearby.   There is also a mini kitchen that you can use to make meals and Manuela went the extra distance to provide bottled water too. I couldn't have been happier with my experience.

The room is bright and roomy with ample closet space and a comfortable bed . The bathroom next to the room was clean and well laid out , I was the only guest I think it will be shared once the rental unit is finished . There is a fridge and microwave but little else in the alcove in front of the room . Overall a good quiet place to sleep with a nice location if your staying in the Allston area.

<br/>The apt. Had a very nice set up with the bedroom  on one side, and private.  The bed was very comfortable. The other side was the living area , kitchen and bathroom.  The couch even folds down and could probably be used for a second bed if needed.
<br/>
<br/>I loved the neighborhood and felt very safe.  Everyone I talked to was extremely nice.  There is a little coffee shop right across the street and a couple blocks away is a place that sells freshly ground coffe to make in the coffee press in the apt. (It made very good coffee). I bought the Italian blend.
<br/>
<br/>It is very easy and convenient to get to the T about a 8-10 minute walk.  From there you can get anywhere in the city.  Great transportation!
<br/>
<br/>There are also a few little stores that sell a little produce and beer, wine, milk...  
<br/>
<br/>In the North End Italian area is the best food ever.  I don't think you could go wrong with any of the restaurants, but my favorite was Paglinca's.  They have flower boxes on their windows.  There food was wonderful and the staff are very friendly and welcoming.

I stayed at the home for 6 days during the boston marathon. I am a first time user of airbnb and was a bit hesistant travelling with an infant to an unknown home, Kelly and Phil made us feel confortable and is really easy going.  We were on the 3rd floor and shared the stairway with the homeowner, the home has enough segregation which made it more comforting.  
<br/>
<br/>The kitchen and bathroom area is top notch, they just renovated that area and it looks really nice and clean.  Bedrooms are spacious and relaxing, clean white sheets on all the beds too.  They provided some yogurt/coffee/cereal that was in the fridge when we arrived, a pleasant surprise!  Shampoos and other bathroom stuff were all quality stuff.  
<br/>
<br/>Kelly also provided us with a pack and play for our infant, this was great since we didn't bring one!  We were in and out as we pleased, visiting attractions and the local JP area throughout the day.
<br/>
<br/>If I'm ever in the boston area again, this place would definitely be an option, I wouldn't hesistate to stay here again.

We thoroughly enjoyed our week long stay at Helen's apartment. Her, or her husband's daily visits with fresh pastries and fruit became something that we eagerly anticipated.  We also appreciated the other amenities of a well stocked coffee selection, milk, juice, and granola. The rooms were spotless, the bed was VERY comfortable, and the toiletries provided were pure quality. On the cold and rainy Boston Marathon day, she even provided ponchos for us!  We did have to park more than a half mile away during some of our stay and be aware that it's a three story climb to the room - BUT totally worth it. We WOULD recommend this place.

The apartment is a top floor quiet location.  You cannot hear the neighbors and is perfectly situated in the North End.

It is a nice quiet space on the ground floor with private entrance. Miriam was very welcoming and the fruits and bagels for the first breakfast were much appreciated. It is a short walk from Centre street with Whole Foods, Stop and Shop and Brendan Behans' Pub nearby.

We were warmly welcomed by Adriana & Gianni, especially considering the hour at night. They kindly helped us with our luggage, as one of us had our arms full with our baby.
<br/>The rental house appeared just like the pictures - we were happy to find the rooms are much larger than expected! The only issue was the dryer wasn't working properly, so we had to air dry our laundry. When traveling with a baby, the convenience/speed of the dryer would have been more ideal.
<br/>The neighbourhood is close to central Boston, about 15 minutes on transit. Transit stop is five minute walk from house. It was about a 20 minute walk to Wholefoods, and along the way is another grocery store & some restaurants. We did try The Haven one evening, which is a decent quality Scottish pub. 
<br/>As frequent travelers, we would have liked to know the noise level of the neighbourhood, which was louder than what we're used to living in a suburb. You can hear sirens, traffic sounds and general street noise when inside the house/trying to sleep. If you're not sensitive to noise, then I'm sure you'll be fine! 
<br/>We would recommend this place to other travelers, as it's a safe & spacious house at a great price!

First off, THANK YOU so much Paul. The place is in a perfect location and is in mint condition . My parents and I stayed here for about 5 days and we were extremely satisfied with everything. Paul is great at communicating and is there if you need anything ! Getting the key was smooth and easy and the day we checked out... We got to chat with paul some more and even were able to leave our bags in the front closet bc our flight didn't leave till a little after check out time. The apartment is close to just about everything . We could walk anywhere ! There are great restaurants nearby and a Whole Foods literally right across the street . The neighborhood is super safe and beautiful ! I highly recommend this airbnb to any couple looking to spend some fun time in the city ! We cannot wait to come back and visit again! Paul is super awesome and welcoming ! Thank you Paul again from Martin , Lynn and me (Paige !) !

We had a wonderful experience staying with Ella & Will. They were very accommodating from the beginning-- when I was struggling to fulfill the airbnb vetting requirements,to providing a key for our later arrival ,to smoothing over a minor difficulty with the sleeper sofa. They even treated us to drinks to make up for the very minor annoyance of a roof repair!
<br/>The apartment is clean & bright with every possible amenity. The stairs to the bedroom are rather steep but that is noted in the description & we didn't mind-- just use the hand rail . It is in a great location-- walking distance to nice bistros & bakeries not to mention easy access to the train station . Ella is a charming,helpful host with a delightful family & We hope to stay here again!

Todd was a great host and even left me a map showing some local running spots since I mentioned I'd be going for a run a couple times while there.  The location is great, walking distance to Harvard Business School, and a little further walk to Harvard Square or a very cheap Uber/Lyft ride.  It's also very close to the river and there are some great running trails along side of it.  The place was spacious and very private, I would definitely stay here again next time I'm in Boston.

Kristina graciously met me at the studio when I got mixed up and thought the key belonged to the wrong door. She redirected me and recommended street parking for my boyfriend and gave us great recommendations for local restaurants, coffee shops, and cafés!
<br/>
<br/>The studio itself was lovely, everything was clean, fresh, and well maintained. My boyfriend and I stayed for two nights and three days and the space was cozy but we never felt cooped-up. The bed is very comfortable and the extra hangers in the closet were a helpful and thoughtful touch. The space heater next to it worked beautifully and warmed up the entire space.
<br/>
<br/>It's located within half a mile of several great cafés, restaurants, and little shops, which was lovely. We didn't have the chance to use much of the kitchen but from what we saw it looked nice! The little two-person table was perfect for quick meals together, and the dishwasher spared us handwashing, which was a nice thing not to worry about during a weekend away.
<br/>
<br/>One small note: while there is a mini fridge there's no freezer, which was fine for us but might be good to know for future guests.
<br/>
<br/>I'd recommend this space to anyone staying in the area, and definitely book it again in the future!

Wow!  What a great place.  We were very impressed.  The apartment had great views, large kitchen, and a good sized bathroom, and very clean.  Lots of windows that let all of the sunlight in.  Plenty of towels and extra sheets too.  Overall a great experience and I would definitely recommend Paolo's place to others and stay there again myself.  A couple of points that others have mentioned, the stairs to the apartment are spiraled and steep, which wasn't a problem for us.  Also since it faces Commercial St. there is street noise.  Again, not a problem for us at all.  Thanks Paolo (and Ralph)!

We had clear instructions on how to access our apartment, we were warmly welcomed by Olga who prepares the apartment in Carol's absence, and found our spacious, clean, modern and well located apartment as per website. Carol's art works are so numerous they fill the place but they are a very interesting extra. The sound system and library was also a bonus. We found access to everything very easy, walking to Town Common and Freedon trail etc and enjoyed the use of the kitchen and the use of the laundry facility in the building. Taxis easy to get outside on street anytime.

Kelly was a great host! Her place was super clean and in the best location. We were a block from Boston Commons and close to several transit lines. There are so many great restaurants, shopping and touristy stuff to do at your finger tips. The neighborhood is quiet and a perfect place to relax. Kelly was very accommodating with our arrival time and made the "check in" very convenient for us. I would defiantly recommend staying here and would book again for my next trip.

This was so central, we were walking distance from everything we wanted to do! Jose was very responsive with everything.

Spent a weekend in the end of April at Vicki's place in City Point neighborhood of South Boston.  Could not have asked for a better host and place to stay.  Vicki is beyond nice and easy to keep in contact with.  Her condo is like no other.  You can tell she greatly values her property.  There are views of the water from most windows, the location is in walking distance to local businesses and the beach in Southie, and a short bus or taxi ride to other neighborhoods in the city.

My friends and I stayed at Tiffany's property and we felt like we were at our home away from home. Her house was very clean, quaint, and charming. She was very responsive whenever we had any questions. Her home had every amenity we needed and she always asked us if we needed anything else. She was very flexible with our check in/out times. We liked that she prepared us with details and instructions about her home. Overall, she is an excellent host.  My friends and I would rent Tiffany's house again if we ever go back to Boston. I definitely would recommend Tiffany's property for anyone who is looking to stay in the Boston area.

The room that we stayed in, Barney's master bedroom T downtown, was especially nice as it was very large, clean and close to the kitchen, laundry room and was located on the 1st floor (we had large luggage so this was great). Barney and Mary are very nice people, too. They were very obliging and took the time to answer our questions. Also, the muffins that Barney made were some of the best I have ever had. Highly recommend this place as it has a great combination of value, comfort and convenience.

We took a last minute trip to Boston with toddler and were very comfortable at the Fort Hill Inn.  We had a studio apartment with a kitchen area, bathroom and room with a bed and couch. We set up the pack and play in the kitchen and we were all quite comfortable and slept well.  The road that the apartment was on was very quiet and a short walk to the T with easy access to everything we wanted to do in Boston.  Parking was free and readily available on the street.  The apartment was very clean and looked newly updated.  I would highly recommend staying at Fort Hill Inn.

Pour de bons marcheurs comme nous, le centre ville peut se rejoindre à pied. Terry a toujours répondu à nos attentes et questions avec efficacité et rapidité. Nous avons adoré notre séjour et conseillons vivement cette destination et le logement offert par Terry.

Helen and Stuart were gracious hosts. They let us know that they were available if needed, but allowed us our privacy. The room was open, clean and did have a private entrance.  There was a separate kitchen, sitting/sleeping and dressing area but still all open. The location was easy walking distance from the T. We were impressed with the beautiful walkway to the private entrance.The stairs were steep, which was fine with us, but would be difficult for individuals with mobility issues.<br/>As mentioned before there was delicious homemade granola, fruit, yogurt and pastries provided daily. We thoroughly enjoyed our stay

The listing description was accurate and the house was lovely. Matt and Eva have done a great job with it. Both the kitchen and bathroom were upgraded and done very nicely and the other rooms retained their historic charm. Everything was clean, comfortable, and decorated nicely. The views were beautiful and the skylights added charm and made it light and airy. The location was wonderful in that it was 10 minutes from a couple of coffee places and the Orange line train. I love that there is parking at the site and that once we arrived, we never had to drive in the city, a plus for sure. I will definitely stay again on my next trip to Boston.

Both Katharine & Scott were the most gracious and helpful hosts! 
<br/>
<br/>Right from the stage where our Request For Reservation was made by me. They kept in constant touch with us and went out of their way in informing us about how distant; and how to get to where I needed to go to in Boston.
<br/>
<br/>They gave us all the relevant information about the restaurants, public transport etc so that our getting around etc was made easy. 
<br/>
<br/>Their place was very neat, comfortable they made us feel absolutely  at home. They went out of their way in providing our morning coffee, exotic teas from the Himalayas, home made granola, cut fruit and the works. 
<br/>
<br/>Most of all, our stay with them did not feel one bit like a commercial  transaction. We felt we were staying with friends who one had known for a long time.
<br/>
<br/>I would highly recommend their hospitality to anyone who is looking to stay in Boston!
<br/>
<br/>Thanks Katharine & Scott. Needless to say - Should i be coming to Boston anytime, I will surely be making a request for a stay once again! Appreciate all the little things that you'll did to make our stay in Boston a memorable one. You'll are kind indeed :)

<br/>5. At the time of my stay, other residents were undergrad/grad students renting the other rooms (for me that usually makes me feel strangely safe and optimistic).
<br/>6. Has the 'this old house' with the narrow creaky warped stairs and well worned ballister that I have come to enjoy.

I booked this room for my mom and grandma's first trip to the U.S. They don't speak English, but Mr. Rosenberg made it so easy for them. It's a lovely house. We used different door to get in and out which I think was so convenient. The rooms were well cleaned and cute. And thanks for the breakfast and snacks. It's also located in a safe neighborhood with short distance to B line. Highly recommended.

No estado muy agusto con este anfitrion por un error de tendimiento nos alojamos en el apartamento superior y cuando llegamos al dia siguiente la mujer de la limpieza estaba bajando las cosas y dejandolas en el medio del portal con la puerta de la calle abierta.
<br/>
<br/>Cuando metimos todas nuestras cosas en la casa, falta a un amigo un tablet, hablamos con el anfitrion y solo nos ponia pegas de que nunca habia pasado nada, de que no nos entendia... asi que el anfitrion no se comporto como deberia, ademas llamamos a la policia para no tificarlo y nunca vino.
<br/>
<br/>No repeteria con este anfitrion.
<br/>
<br/>Ademas la forma de que te entregan las llaves parece mas un juego de pistas que de un alojamiento.

Terry was very hospitable and welcoming. The apartment was very spacious and comfortable and it was easy to check in and check out. The only complaint is that we were unaware that we were staying in one of the more dangerous areas of Boston. We didn't have a problem, as we took uber to and from everything and felt safe. But, as we were just two girls traveling, I'm not sure that I would have stayed in the same area knowing what I know now. But, if you're comfortable with the location, the apartment was great!

Nicolo contacted me two days prior to arrival to give me details about the property. The house was easy to find, located within walking distance of some small pubs, places to find food and a grocery store. It sits back enough from the street that there is no noise from the very busy street next to it. The house was clean, beds comfortable, linens clean and numerous decorations throughout the house. The inside and outside are fairly depicted in the online posting. There were plenty of clean towels and the bathrooms each had one small liquid soap container. The kitchen had everything needed to cook and plenty of dishes. This is a charming older home but with a regal atmosphere. I would recommend it as well as stay here again.

Appreciated the prompt and friendly communication from Chris and Kristina, and the space was better than expected, more like a two-room flat than a studio.  Easy walking distance to everything in JP - the T, restaurants & shops on Centre St, park areas, Sam Adams. Excellent place to stay in a great neighborhood.

We had a great time at Barney's home. The room is very spacious and bright, living room is nice and kitchen has everything we needed. We could even print out Redsox baseball game tickets using a computer and a printer in the living room. Breakfast is provided for the guests and Barney bakes fresh muffins everyday. Barney gave us really good suggestions on where to see, eat, etc. We enjoyed a lot our stay in Boston.

Joe's house was comfortable and very clean.  it is convenient to many places in Charlestown and to transportation to other parts of Boston.  Joe was a wonderful host.  He left supplies for a few good breakfasts.  When my flight got in late and my husband was joining me the next day, he walked with me to my daughter's house.  He checked in with us each day to make sure things were going well.  We would definitely stay at Joe's house again.

The apartment and Jose could not have been better for our needs. Being the north end and it's narrow streets gave the trip character. The apartment suited it's surroundings. The narrow stairs a bit of experience while taking luggage up but that's about it. Would go back in a flash!

Jeff made the process of booking with him effortless. We went back and forth a little until he felt comfortable with me and the bachelorette party I was bringing to his home. I assured him we wouldnt be crazy, just some drinks and crafts as well as a place to sleep. We were welcomed with banana bread (YUM!) and cute notes left all over the apartment. Our group all couldn't stop saying how we wanted to move in, that's how adorable the place is! Perfect for our group of 7-8. It was a relatively quick ride into town so it was definitely a great alternative to staying at a pricey hotel in the center of Boston. We also took advantage of their gorgeous kitchen, making a cute cocktail party on friday and breakfast saturday morning. All in all, if the occasion calls for it, we will definitely be back to Jeff and Rachel's wonderful home!!! :)

Apartment was perfect for our trip! Location was perfect. For 4 girls staying there, we felt completely safe. It was easy access to train and not far from the airport. It was very nice to have luggage storage room for our bags before our departing flight. There was no issue getting keys upon arrival and they were very nice about checking out a little late since we had a late flight. I would definitely stay here again and I cannot wait to make another trip to Boston!

First:  I had a wonderful time in Victor's intelligently designed studio.   The building is centrally located, near all things considered when traveling/exploring.   The studio inspired me to reformat my studio in Seattle in a similar fashion.  The loft bed was very comfortable, and there is a pull out bed underneath.   Overall a great experience.  <br/>I was visiting my daughter and he had asked me what she was into.  I mentioned a few things.  When arrived he set up his Apple TV and programmed her favorite shows and movies, stuffed the cooler with Mac n Chz and drinks.  I was surprised by his generous hospitality.    <br/>Victor was a great host with a good room.  He met me at the studio late at night with the keys.  He's a good guy, I'd definitely book any room he would list.

We didn't meet Adam but that was not a problem. The apartment was perfect as was the location. I had been to Boston before so I had a very good idea where the apartment would be and was not disappointed. 
<br/>The only issue is that the apartment is in a walk-up - fourth floor. Not a problem for most but it did impact on the amount of luggage we brought - we were only there for 4 days so not a big issue. First time with airbnb and will certainly use again.

We were 4 girls, we arrived late at night and there was someone to welcome us. The studio was very clean, as well as the bathroom and the bedding and the kitchen has all you need. The murphy bed was comfortable. Since we were there for a week end, there was enough room for all of us. If you have a car, there's not many places to park without paying, but there's a garage right beside the subway station, it was 35$ per day.
<br/>
<br/>It's well located, the area is quite pleasant and beautiful. It's only a 10 min. walk to the nearest subway station but there are many bus route closer. 
<br/>
<br/>I would definitively suggest this place to anyone.

Our first impression was that if we just added a small kitchen it would be a perfect little studio to live in. Check in was simple as it was just through numpad to get the key. The place was extremely well kept and clean. We loved that there was a couch and a TV to relax on. Bed was comfy. It was just a short walk to the nearest T station and then a few stops into the center of Boston, so that was very convenient. Parking was also very convenient as we found a place right outside the apartment.  Jonathan made sure that we checked in OK and offered suggestions/recommendations. We only stayed one night but I would have loved to stay more.

Kit and Scott were fantastic hosts - Thank You Very Much!! Everything was perfect, breakfast of home made granola, one morning, home made muffins another, home made waffles a third! Each morning we had the choice of something different or we could have had toast if we had wanted, fresh tea and coffee etc. The house is lovely, our own upstairs basically with a large room, bathroom and lounge. Kit and Scott were both very helpful in terms of directions, good places to eat, letting us do some washing. Chatting over breakfast each morning was enjoyable and insightful, yet if we had wanted to keep ourselves to our ourselves we could have. The house is very near to the local T and city bikes, a 10 min walk from an area with lots of restaurants. It's a quiet area with great access to the city centre and Jamaica Plain's restaurants and bars. I can't recommend staying highly enough, we would genuinely like to go back on future.

This was our first time using AirBnb and we couldn't be happier. The condo was exactly like the pictures and right in the heart of the north end. We had a great time and a big part of that was the condo. The bed was comfortable, the living room was the perfect spot for relaxing after a long day, and the kitchen was very modern. The bottle of wine was a very nice touch as well. Cindy and Mark were excellent hosts and responded within minutes to all of our questions. Next time we visit Boston, we will definitely stay here again!

My husband and I stayed with Adriana and Gianni for 5 nights.  It was our first trip to Boston, and I was visiting for school (Simmons College).  I refused to stay at the hotel located near the campus, because of the quality of the rooms for such a steep price.  I'm glad that we found their place for us to stay.  It was absolutely perfect for the both of us.  The pictures look the same in person; they maintain it by keeping it clean.  It's very quiet and private.  We took advantage of utilizing the kitchen by cooking breakfast, which is supplied with the necessities for cooking.  There is also a refrigerator to help store perishables.  It was a convenient location for us to stay and take an Uber ride to school (1.5 miles away).  It is at a great location for the other surrounding universities.  It isn't walking distance, but we decided to do Uber the entire trip which wasn't expensive at all.  Communication with Adriana and Gianni was very prompt.  We also met Adriana briefly; she was very hospitable, and informed us we may contact her during our stay if we had any questions.  If I ever visit Boston again, I will definitely stay with them.  Thank you for everything!

Great little place, easy to get around Boston from! <br/>My wife and I spent part of our honeymoon here. When we got to the apartment they were fixing the bathroom ceiling (the guest before us had knocked some of the paneling down), Jessica was quite apologetic about being in the way (and brought us muffins that night) and went over a really helpful list of things to see and do in Boston why it was being worked on. They had it fixed by that evening leaving us in privacy for the rest of the time. <br/>Quick walk to the subway (though watch out for the climb back up the hill on your way back to the apartment) and some really good eateries near by. <br/>All in all it was an enjoyable stay, Jessica was a good host, the apartment was clean and comfortable and I would definitely recommend :)

This was a beautiful location in the heart of Little Italy.  Check-in was exactly as we were told, we got the keys and went upstairs to the apartment to drop our bags and then took a stroll up Hanover Street and over to Long Wharf.

Margaret's house was exactly what we were looking for while visiting Boston.  We were given the keys and good wishes to have fun and we did!  Margaret's home is  warm and comfortable.  Jamaica Plain was wonderful and convenient to transportation to downtown Boston.  We were confused by a  text message from Margaret on our second night in the house, asking us to mind the noise and to respect the neighbors which I feel compelled to comment about.  We are a family, not loud, nor party animals and it seemed to us a surprise comment, because we were behaving respectively and simply enjoying the patio that is part of the house.
<br/>We loved staying here and recommend it to future guests.

We had an excellent stay with Jonathan, who was helpful, polite and accomodating. He allowed us to leave our luggage up at the main house whilst when we checked out but before our flight. We arrived quite late into Boston but arrangements were such that it was easy to gain access to the studio, even though Jonathan was not in at the time. The studio itself was exactly as described - clean, functional and comfortable. Just what two weary travellers needed! Would recommend to friends and if we visit again will definitely consider staying with Jonathan again. <br/>A tip - the route from the nearest subway station to the studio has a reasonably steep uphill part so recommend an uber / taxi as we had a little trouble hauling two suitcases up the cobbled steps at midnight!

An entirely  enjoyable experience. Although I did not meet the hosts, they made  arrival easy with a convenient lockbox for the key, and made themselves available if necessary by phone.
<br/>The apartment was perhaps even better than described: immaculately clean, simple and charming with great historic details of ceiling beams, original brick walls, and gleaming wood floors. 
<br/>Situated within steps of everything in the North End, the private entry court off the street made it a true haven from the busy tourist streets.  Other than an occasional barking dog, it was completely quiet, especially at night. 
<br/>The bed was extremely comfortable, and the simple furnishings and  entire apartment had a warm and cozy feeling.
<br/>The location in the North End is the best in Boston: just around the corner from outstanding restaurants (excellent meals at Nico's and Panza,)  bakeries (Modern and Mike's,)  a very  friendly and safe neighborhood feel, significant Boston history on every street, Old North Church on the corner,  good harbor views down the block, and easy access to the T at the Haymarket stop.  
<br/>I enjoyed every part of my stay and would gladly return for another visit.  Highly recommended!

We had such a great time on our 1st trip to Boston. Terry's apt. was the perfect place to call home when we weren't out and about. The apt was furnished impeccably and incredibly comfortable. The T line was so close and easy to use and we saw and did so much in 5 days. He met us when we checked in and answered all our questions. We saw him periodically and he's super nice and even mailed some items I left behind. There's a great balcony with a grill on it that we used as the weather was perfect. I loved all the beautiful flower boxes he had around the apt and on the balcony. What a great touch! Don't hesitate to stay here. I have already recommended this spot to many friends and family. Thx for everything Terry!!

We had a great time staying at this historic house in the Brighton neighborhood.  The place is much nicer than what the pictures might suggest.  (One recommendation is to upload pictures that show how off the place a little better).  
<br/>
<br/>Even though Jeff was not available to meet us in person he had everything prepared ahead of time to make for an easy entrance.   He was accessible when needed and responded quickly to any concerns and/or questions we had.   
<br/>
<br/>The neighborhood has a small town feel to it in that it is mostly residential.  But just a block or so away you can find a really nice selection small shops, cafes, restaurants, banks and the ever so needed drug store.  The local bell goes off in the morning and you can tell what time it is by how many times it is rung.  If you want a place to get away for a weekend or with the family this is a hidden little gem of a place.  I would without a doubt recommend this to anyone considering visiting the area.

Sam Adams brewery is just a ten minute walk too!<br/>All in all, Melissa is an exceptional host and really cares about her guests. I'd highly recommend her to future travelers and would stay again:)

We received information a week in advance regarding accessing the key and entering the apartment.  Everything went well.  The location of this apartment was wonderful, in the North End, easily reached by T stop Haymarket and within walking distance to many sites and attractions.  The apartment was the perfect size for a couple.  When we arrived the cleaning person had not come yet so we went out for a couple hours so the cleaning could be taken care of.  When we returned we know that the cleaner had been there because there were fresh towels and the trash can had been emptied, but unfortunately nothing else was cleaned - the sheets were not changed, the floors were not swept or vacuumed, the bathroom was not cleaned and there was food containers in the fridge.  Contacted Jose who said he would take care of it and have someone there within the hour.  Within an hour someone came to clean the apartment.  Although a somewhat decent job of cleaning was done, a lot was missed and a more thorough cleaning would be a good idea.  We enjoyed our stay in Boston, the apartment is in a great location and made it easy to enjoy all of the sites and attractions.

We had a great stay at Evelyn! The room is very relaxing (best bed ever) and with the huge bathroom you feel as if you have your own floor. <br/>Evelyn was helpful in every way when we needed guiding but also very relaxed with us coming and going early mornings and late evenings.<br/>She has a wonderful dog that greets you every time you enter the house. So you always came "home" with a good feeling.<br/>Also there is a nice yard/garden that we didn't had a chance to explore. But next time!<br/>Yes, and there was always a nice breakfast prepared in the mornings. We were jet lagged and were up really early so that was a great saver at some points.<br/>It takes 5 minutes walking to get to the subway which is great. Orange Line. Only downside is that there isn't a lot of café, restaurants or stores in the neighborhood so if you're looking for that they are a 15 minutes walk away at centre street/south street.<br/>On the other hand the quit, beautiful neighborhood gives you a chance to reload your batteries which we enjoyed for example by doing our own spa in Evelyn's wonderful bathroom :)

It was wonderful staying at Trisha's place.  Especially the location was great!  It is close to everything but yet quiet: it is very convenient as a base for sightseeing and is in a very good neighborhood.  We enjoy our stay at Trisha'a place and would highly recommend it!

I had a great stay at Todd's house.   The sunny room (technically called the Luxury room) is very peaceful and the unit is well-appointed.  And, it is a block away from the bus stop and the library.   Todd was also very accommodating - he went to Home Depot to get a window treatment for me to mitigate the bright morning sun (it had woken me up at 5am).   He was also easy to talk to and available to answer any questions I had about the area.   I would definitely stay there again.

Margaret is a warm and friendly host, communicating quickly to any questions.  We stayed for a long weekend at her home in Jamaica Plain near Boston for a family gathering.<br/>Her home is cozy and lived in.  She must be a good cook - her kitchen is fully equipped!  Things we loved - our family being under the same roof, the grill, sun drenched deck, lovely garden, and walking distance to the village center and T.<br/>The bathrooms and kitchen are dated but functional.  The house is older, yet comfortable.  The listing indicates 4 bedrooms, though there are three real beds and Margaret was kind enough to set up a twin cot in the office.  Ample off street parking!<br/>Thank you Margaret for your hospitality.

Прекрасный дом в очень тихом районе, от которого при этом очень удобно добираться из центра города. Чудесная ванная комната, вкусный завтрак по утрам и абсолютно все, что нужно для комфортного пребывания. Конкретно эта комната находится прямо у входа в дом, из-за чего все время слышно входящих и уходящих, но если гуляешь целый день - то это совершенно не заметно

<br/>Er stond een bosje bloemen op tafel en in de koelkast troffen we eieren, melk en brood.

The listing and the property were a great match!  It's quiet, close to public transportation and shopping, and it's a nice neighborhood.  John's family has owned the property for +/- 90 years and it's evident in how they maintain it and how comfortable we felt in staying there.  We hope to stay here on our next trip to Boston.

Tim and the apartment were fantastic. He made sure that I was able to receive the keys in the most convenient way. Located on a beautiful Boston street, the apartment is located paces away from all of the good wine and food Tremont Street has to offer. Two T lines are also just a short walk away. The apartment itself if great. Cozy. Comfortable. Well appointed. And the fridge was stocked with all kinds of milk and water. I would definitely stay here again.

Served as the perfect spot for our stay in Boston. We were on a brewery tour up to Maine this past weekend and so the location is great to end your night at Cambridge Brewing Co and Lord Hobo(bar), if you have similar interests. Jason was quick to return my phone call when I had a question about parking/location of the apartment. Apartment was very clean and towels were laid out on the bed for us. Air mattresses in the closet in case you don't bring your own and have extra people. Good experience here.

Our stay at the Mayhew was just okay. We communicated throughout our stay with John of Swank Properties through the AirBNB messaging system. If you stay in a Swank Property, it will feel a bit more corporate because you're renting from a company rather than staying in a person's home. Before arriving, John was very accommodating in allowing us to access the apartment a few hours before scheduled check-in time. The apartment was very clean and spacious, and all amenities we could've needed were provided. There's a coffee shop a short walk away, a restaurant right next door, and it is conveniently located between two T stops.
<br/>
<br/>Unfortunately, on the second week, we lost both AC and hot water in the apartment. We were told neither could be fixed until after our stay was going to be over. We did ask to have access to another unit for showers, but we did not receive a reply before our stay ended. 
<br/>
<br/>Needless to say, our stay at The Mayhew was colored due to the issues with the apartment.

Having never set foot in the States, let alone Boston, we were unsure what to expect. Upon arrival we were greeted by our host, Jessica, who was absolutely delightful. <br/>The apartment was clean, tidy and generally perfect! The deck and indeed the front garden are fantastic places to enjoy a G&T after a day of sightseeing.<br/>Jessica provided fact sheets so we could enjoy the local area without the need for research, and included directions to local pubs, cafes, sights and the local Transit station which is within easy walking distance.<br/>The apartment itself was deliciously cool even on the hottest evenings. <br/>Thank you Jessica for an incredible week and of course all your help, we both intend to return to your apartment in the future!

Hilary is excellent in communicating with boarders and gives excellent directions and information. She leaves you with a book that provides insight into Boston along with maps and a large notebook with places to go. Hazel is an engaging young lady who provides a perspective of Boston that can only be provided by a young person. Hillary's house is very accessible from the orange line and into downtown Boston---no need for a car. They have a great dog by the name of Aggy and she is always available for petting.

We recently spent 5 nights in Gerard and Marie's lovely apartment in Boston.  Gerard and Marie greeted us the evening we arrived with lots of great advice about things to do and see while we were in Boston.  The apartment is exactly as described on the web page and in fact Gerard and Marie have thought of all the little details that made the apartment seem like a home away from home.  We were very grateful for a washing machine and clothes dryer. Charlestown  is a lovely quaint and quiet suburb and Boston and it's outlying areas are easily accessible by the T (transit system) which is only a few streets from the apartment.

We had a very comfortable stay at Paul's apartment in Beacon Hill. We are a family of four, two children both aged just under four.  The apartment is very comfortably furnished and has plenty of equipment to help you make the most of your stay. We arrived quite late (especially for us as we flew from the UK) so we're very grateful for the sundries we found on arrival. Good coffee, some milk in the fridge etc. we here happy too when Whole Foods opened and we could get some breakfast. Just one minute walk. The only downside was that we didn't find the apartment as quiet as some of the other reviewers, as there was quite a bit of coming and going during the night and you are quite close to the building's front door if you sleep on the sofa bed. The bedroom is set further back and may not have been noisy but we put the children in there. I think we may have been unlucky though as it was graduation weekend. We would firmly recommend to other travellers.

My fiancé and I came to Boston for work and a mini getaway. Will and Ella were great hosts! Will gave me a tour of the apartment upon checking in. They even left us a nice welcome card and bottle of wine which was a nice surprise. The apartment was clean, quiet, private, had wicked fast internet. I appreciate the fact that Will and Ella respected our privacy as my fiancé and I were quite busy and we tend to keep to ourselves anyway. Ella did message me throughout the stay to check in to make sure we were getting around okay and that the apartment was up to par. I especially liked the hand-made manual that Ella had put together for the guests which included information on Boston and how to get around on the T (routes/schedule), sites to visit, restaurants/menus, etc. It was really helpful and I found myself referring back to it several times! The bed was extremely comfortable, appliances and A/C worked fine. We have zero complaints and will be coming back to stay at the apartment soon since we loved it and Boston so much! We couldn't have asked for a better lodging experience!

My wife and I stayed at this place for a week while visiting our daughter and her family in JP. The listing is accurate and well written.  The accommodations were great for us.  The space is large, which made it possible for one of us to read or have coffee in a separate room without disturbing the other. 
<br/>
<br/>The bathroom is newly remodeled and very nice.  The beds are comfortable and the whole suite of rooms is immaculate and tastefully decorated.
<br/>
<br/>The hosts  had left some snacks and coffee for us, making the first morning easy, no shopping required.  They also provided a list of restaurants and maps and a guidebook about the area. They were accommodating, friendly hosts, but they were not intrusive.  
<br/>
<br/>The location is very convenient for walking to restaurants, coffee shops, stores, Jamaica Pond, and close to the bus and T stops.  We will definitely stay here again when we next visit the Boston area.

Lovely neighborhood, in walking distance to UMass Boston, which was the purpose of my trip.  There were also restaurants in easy walking distance.  Great location and beautiful old house.  The room was large and clean, but right next to the main entrance for the house.  If you go to bed early and/or are a light sleeper, bring earplugs or a white noise maker to block out the sounds of people coming into the house in the evening.  I am an early riser and was very happy to have the keureg coffee maker available, right near my room, to make my coffee before anyone else arose.

The location and architecture of the apartment are fantastic. Set at the back of the building away from street noise in an exclusive neighbourhood. The subway and Fenway Park is a 5 minute walk in one direction and the great shopping in Newbury Street is 5 minutes the other way.<br/>Tom was a very responsive host and answered all queries speedily.<br/>Our stay in Boston was great but the apartment standards were disappointing. The host lives here when there are no guests and the level of cleanliness and basic things like hanging space and useful local information were severely lacking. I hope that some of our visit money is invested in a professional cleaner. The bed and sofa were also EXTREMELY uncomfortable, the mattress had no support and creaked so loudly you couldn't even turn over.<br/>I have left detailed feedback for the host so that hopefully the next visitor can experience the apartment with the potential it has to be fabulous.

Joe was very accommodating to our early check in and had the house ready upon our arrival. He was present and somewhat informative about the area. Joe has graciously stocked the fridge with eggs and milk and had also purchased bagels and bananas for us. The house is located in a charming neighborhood, easily accessible by subway and within walking distance of the Navy Yard, Cambridge and the North End. However, the experience only gets one star. The unit was dirty. The blankets and quilt were stained. The microwave had not been cleaned prior to our arrival and had food splattered about. We were not informed that the heat had been turned off and thus were unpleasantly surprised when the temperature dropped to 60 degrees during the night, with no way for us to control the temperature in the unit.

Barbara and Martin have a lovely house that I recommend to anyone looking at staying in Hyde Park. It was nicely decorated, well furnished, with a well-equipped kitchen, very comfortable beds, excellent laundry facilities, and were very generous with provided extras. It felt luxurious. The property is described as an apartment, but we seldom heard the upstairs neighbour, and nothing from the downstairs bedsit.
<br/>
<br/>We were met by their agent and felt very welcome. We didn't need to contact them during our stay, but felt confident that we could have done so readily.
<br/>
<br/>We used public transport during our week-long stay, and had to use a bus to connect to the Orange line. The 39 bus was often crowded, despite its frequency. The 50 bus was more pleasant, stopped closer, but took longer. MBTA's T-Pass permitted us unlimited travel on the subway and local bus, so we did not use the commuter rail.
<br/>
<br/>We found a good selection of eating out places in nearby Jamaica Plain, which was $11-$12 away via Uber.

Huggy was an excellent host.  He was prompt, clear, present and responsive.  The other roommates who share the space were friendly and considerate.  The apartment was clean and in good condition.  Parking (both on and off the street) was always available. I rented this room for 2 weeks while I was in between apartments and they made me feel at home.

Commentaire de ma mere et ma tante (65 et 75 ans), c est elles qui ont voyage:
<br/>"Dans l'ensemble nous avons apprécié notre séjour chez Jessica : accueil bref ( Jessica partait travailler ) mais sympathique, chambre propre avec un grand lit et une terrasse. La maison, de style Victorienne a beaucoup de charme et le quartier est très calme et a 10mm à pied de la station métro Savin Hill.
<br/>
<br/>2 bémols :
<br/>
<br/>1) pas de petit déjeuner. Jessica nous en a expliqué la raison le lendemain de notre arrivée mais nous aurions apprécié de pouvoir nous faire nous même un café ou thé avec quelques toasts car ce n'est pas agréable de partir à la conquête de Boston le ventre vide d'autant que le site s'appelle "Air B and B" !
<br/>
<br/>2 ) pas de porte serviettes dans la salle de bains dont l'installation sanitaire est pour le moins "originale"....

Джессика довольно гостеприимная хозяйка! Апартаменты очень удобные и полностью соответствуют описанию: хорошо оборудованная кухня, доступ к стиральной и сушильной машине, хороший интернет, терраса, на которой мы завтракали с видом на сад. В апартаментах было тихо и спокойно, спалось отлично! Расположение удачное, удобно добираться в центр Бостона! 
<br/>Определенно рекомендую.

This was the first airbnb experience for us. Did not really know what to expect. Valerie and Jason were such nice people, we arrived very late, and jason stayed up and carried our luggage all the way up, and for that matter, down! We loved talking to them, exchanging all kinds of stories. They had maps and city info for us as well, which was great, and gave us good tips how to get around and what to see.  Loved the neighborhood and houses. Room very clean. Nice breakfast! Would recommend them any time!

My boyfriend and I stayed with Thomas and Wonder the dog for two nights in May and it was great.  His house is beautiful and so is the neighborhood with it's authentic Boston triple-deckers. The bedroom is just as it is in the picture and the bed is huge. Tom asked us about any food allergies before we arrived and had a terrific gluten-free banana bread waiting for us when we arrived. During the day he stayed in touch with great tips for restaurants or sights. Great guy, great host.

Both of Terry's apartments I stayed in were exceptional!  He sets the bar high on all fronts: beautifully decorated, clean, spacious, comfortable, affordable & full of amenities.  Easy communication & check-in/out. Great location, lovely neighborhood & FREE street parking (practically in front of the place). The 1st 2 nights I stayed at the 2 bedroom duplex apartment. My first night was at the tail end of a heat wave (it was 88 degrees out) but Terry's place was perfectly cool & comfortable. The a/c was on when I got there, with a few lights & low background music making it very welcoming. The 3rd night I was in the Private Room & Bath  which was also very lovely. It was well-equipped, and great to have the microwave and mini-fridge (there's plates/silverware and just about anything you could need in the cabinet). I slept well on the very comfy beds at both places. Glad I got to meet Terry as I was leaving:)... (though he had been available & we communicated through text during my stay). Would highly recommend & stay again, Thanks Terry!

We stayed there for 4 nights to attend a wedding. The condo was in the perfect location in the North End for all of the wedding festivities. The condo is located in a nice and quiet courtyard, is furnished well with comfortable beds, and has all the necessities you would need. It was so easy to walk to all the great restaurants and tourist attractions, which is a good thing because we definitely needed to after visiting all the great restaurants nearby. We will definitely stay again if we are in the area.

Varouj met us at the condo and made sure all of our questions were answered before he departed. It was a great space, in a perfect location.  Only 1 block to the T, and a 5-10 minute walk to many great restaurants and shops.  There were snacks and beverages left for us and the place was very clean.  However, if you're a light sleeper, pack some earplugs as you can hear the traffic below. Nice place, nice host, you won't be disappointed if you book this place!

Chris and Kelly were gracious hosts and their place is "wicked awesome!"  Beautifully decorated, modern, spacious, and the furniture was oh so comfortable! It truly felt like you were home away from home. P.S. the water pressure in the shower is first class!! They are right in the city and so close to all of the major sites that anyone would want to see if visiting Boston! Public transportation was a breeze especially because they are right next door to two different subway lines. 
<br/>
<br/>They were kind to leave some goodies in the fridge and even checked in with us throughout the weekend. Also, they were very quick to respond to any questions we had. Check in and out was a synch so this is the place to stay if you're coming to Boston--I highly recommend it.

Staying with Hilary and Hazel was a great experience.  This was our first time to Boston and Jamaica Plain was a great neighborhood to call home for a little while.  The house is in a great location as it is near to both public transportation and many restaurants and small shops.  Hilary and Hazel were both welcoming and even provided us with a folder filled with local guides and menus to nearby restaurants.  We really appreciated being told about free days at the museums!  The house was clean and comfortable and was great for resting in between busy days!  Aggie, the dog, was a great pal to have around the house as well!  
<br/>In short, if you are looking for a cool place to stay you've found it!

Tim's flat is very clean, comfortable, and cozy. It's perfect for a solo traveler or a couple. The flat is located on a very pretty tree-lined street in a beautiful and quiet neighborhood. You'll feel like you are in an oasis within the city. There are lots of cafes and restaurants a few blocks away and downtown Boston is within easy walking distance. On the whole, Tim's flat is wonderful and we'll definitely stay here again. He's very friendly, accommodating, and welcoming as well as easy to reach.

The house was lovely and quite large.  Fireplaces and radiators all added to it's charm. We all felt right at home. Enjoyed the living room the most where we could all sit and talk.  My grandson loved playing with the cars, Lincoln logs, and especially the drums.  Plenty of food left for us to eat.  We felt at ease and very welcome.  Loved the blackboard with our own special welcome message. Only thing that would have helped would have been 2 full baths as there were 7 of us.  Would stay there again if we have the opportunity. Thanks so much Katy.

Melissa was a great host and made us feel completely welcome. The space is large and artsy and the location is convenient to good food, parks, and transit.
<br/>
<br/>We were greated each morning with beautiful place settings and breakfast snacks and fruit. Melissa was also a great communicator and kept us informed about anything we needed to know, as well as freely sharing tips on what to do/ where to go in the neighborhood.
<br/>
<br/>Acacia was a welcome addition to our stay and I got in plenty of puppy love while we were there. Be prepared for a big barky greeting, but once she got to know us, she was calm and well behaved and loved showing off her stuffed toys.
<br/>
<br/>A great experience to round out our 17 day eastcoast tour.

Great location.  Easily walkable to all the tourist locations such as Quincy Market, Boston Harbor, Freedom Trail.  Also within walking distance to Neptune Oyster restaurant which you must go to for the best lobster rolls and fresh shucked oysters.
<br/>
<br/>For areas not within walking distance, we used Uber or Lyft.  We didn't bother renting a car since parking can be difficult to find.
<br/>
<br/>The only negative was that sleeping in was a bit difficult since there always seem to be construction noise in the neighborhood.

Victor was a fantastic host- super accommodating to our schedule, gave us good recommendations, and provided delicious snacks. Such a nice dude. <br/>The space is very unique and wicked awesome. It's a great utilization of space with his handcrafted furniture and adds a charm to the whole stay. <br/>It's also super close to everything you could need for your stay- we cooked multiple meals there and got groceries from a supermarket steps away. Walking distance from Brighton Music Hall and not far from downtown. The T stop is actually 2 seconds away from his place.

Adriana & Gianni showed us around the house and made us feel very comfortable during our stay. They were very prompt when we had any questions, and nothing was ever a problem for them. The house was lovely. Extremely well equipped and if anything, the pictures online don't do it justice. The nearest subway connection was less than a 5 minute walk and was easy to navigate in and out of the city. We wouldn't hesitate to stay here again after the excellent house and wonderfully helpful hosts. Thanks again.

Tom left key just where he said. Can't beat the location.  Parking is tough but we actually lucked out and found meter parking right on street in front of apartment. Don't count on that though. Two of us in apartment.  The apartment itself is fine but really really needs a deep cleaning. It is a bachelor pad and kinda has that aroma to it.   That's really my only negative. It needs a scrubbing.Otherwise great location, pretty building and otherwise fine.

This place is great. Check in and out are easy, apartment is very nice and just as described. It really gave me a feel for the history of the city and the area. There are lots of great Italian restaurants and shops very nearby. Great restaurants of all types are a short walk, as is access to public transit that can get you to and from anywhere in the city. The apartment is centrally located but on a quite, pedestrian alleyway, so it's away from traffic nice and very private. I highly recommend this one!

Our family, 5 adults, had an enjoyable stay at Damon's place.  The apartment was clean and bright; had a very comfortable living room where we relaxed after busy days; and the kitchen had whatever we needed to have some of our meals.  
<br/>Our main purpose was to attend our daughter's graduation at Boston College.  BC was conveniently only a short drive from Damon's.  However, we drove to many of Boston's attractions in different parts of the city.  On a few occasions we used the MBTA or Uber.  Damon's home is in a nice residential area and parking is free and available on the street.
<br/>We all agree that we would return to Damon's place in the future and would recommend it to friends.  It was a huge improvement on 3 hotel rooms.  It was a comfortable home away from home.

<br/>Il est dans la Petite Italie, donc près de plusieurs bons restaurants et cafés et on peut suivre la Freedom Trail dès qu'on sort à l'extérieur.
<br/>Ça ne peut pas être mieux situé. On a mangé Italien tout le weekend!

When we arrived, the host was not there, so we had to find the room ourselves, which was fine. The hosts were very friendly and accommodating. The room was clean. However, the bed is very squeaky, meaning that if the other person turns or moves, it gets really loud. Also, as some of the other reviewers said already, the bed is right next to the entry door of the whole building. During our night, we woke up a few times from people entering.

Lovely little room on a quiet street of a great neighborhood. Check-in couldn't have been easier- you just get a code for the door. Don't expect much of a personal touch. This is definitely setup more as hotel-style accommodation, and I didn't interact with the host at all except once via text message. Perfect place to stay if you're visiting the city for an extended period of time or traveling for work.

I had a good stay at this place. I did not stay in the room as shown in the figure. I stayed in some another room which he kept ready for me. The room as well as the linen were clean. He also provided a pair of towels for me to use as I did not have any. The neighborhood is in a residential area and it was peaceful. However, visitors should note that they need to share a common toilet (washroom).

Rebecca was very hospitable both in our initial email communications and during our stay.  We were away from the house most of our stay and therefore did not need many of the amenities that she graciously offered (e.g. coffee, tea, relaxing in her yard, etc.).  We loved being in Roslindale close to our family and close to the lovely Village of Roslindale, and close to the Arboretum.  The neighborhood where Rebecca lives was quiet and felt very safe. The free street parking was a real plus as was finding a pet friendly place to stay.  We were the only guests at Rebecca's except for our last night there, so we only had to share the use of the bathroom that one night.  This was not a problem since we never saw the other guest, but I would have felt more comfortable if there was a lock on the bathroom door. The house is one of those old Boston homes from the early 1900's which generally require some repairs to the lath plaster, but are also filled with unique historical charm.  We are very thankful to Rebecca for her kindness and hospitality and for giving us a good first experience with airbnb!

This was our first experience with Airbnb and we absolutely loved it.  We received detailed and accurate descriptions of how to access the apartment and operate the items therein. The apartment was exactly as pictured and described, spacious and lovely.  West Roxbury is a great neighborhood. Never once had a problem finding a parking space on the street.  Lots of extras that came in handy (fan, hair dryer, scads of kitchen utensils, lots of hangers).  John was even very gracious when one of our party, in his quest to learn as much as possible about the door locks, accidentally locked us out.  John had to send a poor chap over to rescue us.  We were more careful after that. Plus there's a convenience store on the corner, a grocery a couple of blocks away, and a donut shop nearby.  What more could a gal ask?

My girlfriend and I stayed at Lisa’a place for our 1st ever Airbnb stay and we couldn’t have been more pleased. Our flight was delayed so we didn’t get into Lisa’s place until past 3 am but she was able to accommodate our schedule to let us in. Her place is located in a quiet part of town and conveniently located next to a T stop as well as the Samuel Adams brewery (about 10 minute walk each).
<br/>Despite having 2 well-behaved cats, we found her place to be immaculate and the bed very comfortable to sleep on. She provided us with toiletries, towels, and even chocolate. Lisa and her partner John make for excellent company as they are very easy to talk to. We certainly hope that all our future Airbnb hosts can be as accommodating and friendly as Lisa and John.

Alex is just lovely and the space is very nice - a little bit construction zone but otherwise very nice.  Very quiet and restful.  The neighborhood is fine - nothing really close to eat so bring it in or be prepared to walk, T, or drive.  The back porch is wonderful!

Gloria was very friendly and helpful and personally let us into the property.  The accomodations are very spacious and it is in a prime location.  Walking distance to many attractions, plentiful cabs and close to the T.  We had a group of 7 and could have used some extra seating, glassware and bed linens/blankets.  This may not be an issue for smaller groups. Gloria was quick to respond to the few questions we did have after settling in.

We stayed and Ella and Will's apartment while visiting Boston for my sister's graduation. <br/>The apartment was big enough to accommodate three adults (one bedroom and one sofa bed). <br/>Around the apartment there are cute little places to buy pastries for breakfast and it is very family oriented. <br/>If you are planning on staying here to spend most of the time in the downtown or Commons area, beware of the distance. It is absolutely doable with Uber and taxis, but it's a little far (about 20 minutes in regular traffic, and between $15-20 per ride) <br/>The apartment itself is beautiful, lots of light and has everything you need. We didn't get a chance to meet the hosts, but Ella was really forthcoming, accommodating and quick to answer emails. They took time to make sure our stay was going ok (even though they themselves were out of town).<br/>I would highly recommend their place and would definitely stay there again.

Todd was een uitstekend gastheer. Onzichtbaar en toch aanwezig. Hij nam de dag dat ik zou aankomen per email contact met me op om me welkom te heten en instructies achter te laten.  Dat werkte uitstekend omdat ik niet de exacte tijd van mijn aankomst wist. De kamer was uitstekend, schoon en rustig. Precies wat ik nodig had.

BEST HOST EVER !
<br/>Yvonne nous a vraiment bien accueillis, malgré notre arrivée tardive. Le lit de notre chambre était très confortable, la salle de bain propre et nous avons eu des serviettes propres et un petit déjeuner chaque matin. Yvonne et son mari sont très ouverts à la conversation et Yvonne nous gentiment fait faire le tour de la ville en voiture pour nous montrer ce que nous avions manqué par nous-mêmes : plage, caserne des pompiers, université MIT... Le dernier jour, Yvonne nous a même amené à la gare des bus. C'était un séjour très agréable, je recommande cette hôte pour sa grande gentillesse et le confort de la chambre proposée !

Wow...
<br/>
<br/>...ein Appartement, das den Bildern voll und ganz entspricht und dazu Gastgeber vom Feinsten - kaum zu übertreffen.
<br/>
<br/>Wir haben uns bei Helen und Stuart sehr, sehr wohl gefühlt. Helen hat uns sogar vom Bahnhof der Station Forest Hills abgeholt. Jeden Morgen wurden wir mit Frühstücksleckereien verwöhnt, das homemade Granola macht einfach nur süchtig. Saft, Milch, Tee, Obst, Joghurt und Kaffee waren ebenfalls vorrätig, das alles hatten wir so nicht erwartet und waren wirklich mehr als positiv überrascht.
<br/>
<br/>Das Appartement war tiptop sauber, das Bett sehr bequem, die Küche bestens ausgestattet, im Bad herrlich flauschige Handtücher. Die Lage zum Arnold Arboretum Park zum Joggen, die sichere und gute Nachbarschaft, nur 3 Min. zu öffentl. Verkehrsmitteln mit nur 20 Min. Fahrtzeit nach Downtown, ein Supermarkt in der Nähe und Jamaica Plain ein Katzensprung entfernt, das alles hätte für uns nicht besser sein können.
<br/>
<br/>Und die Gastgeber? Wunderbar! Immer erreichbar und für alle unsere Fragen offen (und wir hatten viele). Wir bekamen tolle Tipps und Empfehlungen für Boston, die Umgebung und unsere weitere Reise zu den White Mountains.
<br/>
<br/>Deshalb von uns 5 Sterne und ein herzliches Dankeschön an Helen und Stuart!

This place was great! The description was accurate and the apartment was cozy, tidy and comfortable. The location was fantasic as well--the neighborhood felt very safe and there were plenty of amenities, great restaurants, coffee shops as well as the train station nearby. The apartment's also conveniently located near Boston University and just a 20 to 30 minute walk away (depending on which end of campus one visits). Sanjay was very helpful and responded quickly to all messages when I first inquired about the booking right up until I checked out. I'd be happy to stay there again!

The Charles Street flat was the perfect place to stay during our visit to Boston.  The ambiance of Beacon Hill is just what I wanted! The shuttered, brick, row houses displaying window boxes of flowers, the hilly, narrow streets, and gas-lit brick walks brought me back to a time of gracious living in a century past.
<br/> 
<br/>Inside, the second floor home was clean and uncluttered.  There are beautiful, intricate, plaster crown moldings and hard wood floors.  The bed was comfy and the shower had plenty of hot water and water pressure.  Having a washer and dryer in the basement was of great benefit, as it allowed us to wash some clothes before going on to our next destination.
<br/> 
<br/>Remus is a friendly, well-behaved, considerate cat, and we enjoyed his company.  Larry is a gracious and caring host and the neighbors made us feel so welcomed!  The location, near Boston Common, is so central you may walk to many places about town, the MBTA and Starbucks.  There are several nice restaurants within blocks as well.
<br/> 
<br/>Thanks for the hospitality, Larry!

Great communication from Jose at booking and then prior to arrival.  The flat was perfect and was indeed "under the light of the Old North Church".  We called Jose with a question when we arrived and he was great to answer phone and assist with our question.  The North End was our favorite place in Boston...so quaint and so lovely.  Jose's place just made the whole adventure better.  4 flights of steep, curved steps which is, I'm sure, typical for all locations on north end.  Perfect landing spot for us.  There was no coffee pot in kitchen which was initially a bummer...but it forced us into the streets early that morning and we discovered Modern Bakery...which has been around since the 30's and which had great coffee, the BEST pear tart and that lovely authentic Italian flare.  Go and enjoy Under the Light of the Old North Church!!!

This is a spectacular flat, in a fantastic location, and I'd come back without hesitation.  It's clearly a well-managed location, and it appears that the entire set of units are dedicated to airbnb, but they're appointed with that use in mind.  The furnishings are luxurious and comfortable.  Everything was in good condition.  There were spare toiletries and cookware--things you'd expect from a more personal airbnb experience.  This was a perfect balance between the reliability of experience offered by the nicest hotel, with the location and character of a great airbnb.  I really enjoyed it.

Jennifer家是我第一次体验Airbnb的服务。我想说她家很好，人也不错，离市区有点远但是有地铁，也不会花很久时间，值得入住！而且有早餐，鸡蛋还是她自己养的鸡下的。
<br/>相比之下，我更想抱怨一下airbnb，你们有太多方面需要改善了！软件界面看起来很友好但其实很多地方都给我们造成了很大不便！差评！
<br/>I think Jennifer's home is really nice. The transport is convenient (a mile away from subway, she can give you a ride to the station). The breakfast is an unexpected surprise. We had eggs from the chicken in her back yard! Jennifer is a nice person and her room is worth to try out! Airbnb asked me to write this comment in Chinese, don't understand why. This software definitely need huge improvement.

I had a great time with Valerie and Jason. They were very kind and attentive hosts.
<br/>
<br/>The room itself was expertly prepared for. It came with lots of towels, a hair dryer, and even bottled water. The room is very spacious and very comfortable. There is even a mini fridge and additional closet space. The only down side is that it can be a bit loud in the morning, not sure if it was a one time thing when I was there, but it is always a good rule of thumb to bring ear plugs. The bathroom was located a bit far from the room, but it was very clean and even had shampoo and body wash for use.  
<br/>
<br/>Valerie was pretty good about responding to my texts promptly. The couple even offered me breakfast and asked me to join them for ice cream. I felt very cared for and at the same time quite independent. I enjoyed my stay very much and would recommend it!

I brought my 10-year-old son to Boston for a long weekend and Cindy and Mark's condo was the perfect location for a very special trip!  The condo is clean and well-maintained, a quiet retreat in the busy North End.  Located near lots of kid-friendly food choices, an easy walk to the Haymarket T stop and history around every corner.   We had a great time, and if we are ever fortunate enough to return, we would head right back here.

The apartment was very well located and had an incredible view and everything went well with Ralph and Paolo. We received the apartment in a very clean condition and in a god shape.  A few amenities we would have appreciated would be a laundry and dryer machine. When we got there we found no shampoo or soap. Besides, the entrance door was not a strong one.  Finally, it was a second floor through a steep ladder. If you have certain disabilities it might complicate your stance.

Bit late getting this review in but have been on the road. We stayed at the home of Barbara and Martin for 5 nights and it was just great! Starting with communication months ago to make the booking to our departure , everything went smoothly. They were not there to meet us but sent their friend to meet us on arrival and explain all about our stay. Barbara and Martin have a beautiful home and we felt quite at home. They gave us the run of the house and said we could use anything we wish. On arrival there was a lovely bottle of red, white and champagne to welcome us to the house. Also nibbles in the fridge, coffee (great coffee too) and enough items to get us going. As there was a BBQ on the veranda which we could also use, we enjoyed our first night in Boston with a great steak and a few wines! <br/>The house was presented very well, with all the amenities you could possibly require. Bedrooms were nice and comfortable and having two bathrooms was great for two couples! Everything was nice and clean. <br/>Even though we had a car, we used the public transport once or twice and that was convenient to the house. They left all kinds of brochures to help us plan our stay in Boston which was very helpful.<br/>All in all a great stay and would recommend it to anyone who wants to really enjoy Boston as a local.

We were very pleased with our stay.  This apartment is clean, easy to locate and the perfect size for 2-4 people.  We found the neighborhood fun, eclectic and safe.  The apartment is well furnished and organized.  We loved the fresh fruit, granola, tea and coffee.  There are shops, restaurants and 711 very close by for convenience.  We parked at the hospital and it was safe and very reasonable for the weekend.  The host's were quick to get back to us with questions and small issues we had.  We even got a visit to fix our WIFI, which was still an issue, but they tried to fix it and we appreciated that.  We would stay here again and will recommend it to friends.

This pretty home was exactly as advertised, and exactly what we were looking for. It is a charming house that had plenty of room for our party of 5 adults. We came into the house to a welcome message on a tall blackboard, and a bowl of fruit on the kitchen table. There were also snacks, sparkling water and coffee waiting for us. The owner was very helpful recommending traveling in and out of Boston, and stores and other places we may need in the neighborhood. It was an easy drive to the train, and a quick ride to the center of the city. As bustling as Boston was during the day, the house was quiet in the evening. It was just perfect. We had a lovely family vacation, and will always remember our stay in this pretty house.

Carol responded very promptly to my request and was very thoughtful for the pre-visit emails for arrangements such as check-in time and parking space. Olga, Carol's assistant was also really nice and easy to communicate with. My friend and I had a great time while staying at this place! Carol's apartment is very accurately described and indeed beautifully decorated. It is conveniently located within 5 mins walk to the North Station, grocery stores and attractions. I would recommend it to any friend who is traveling to Boston!

Valerie and Jason were amazing hosts and were very welcoming.  Their house is really a short commute from the T. The room had everything one could possibly need ( washcloths, towels, mini frig, water and etc). I would definitely stay with them again in the future.

Cute little apartment in a quiet part of town. Everything was clean and well maintained, perfect for 2 people to stay in. Roslindale had many good restaurants nearby, including a bakery within walking distance that had delicious breakfast sandwiches which was super convenient! The ride into the city part of Boston was 10-20 minutes depending on traffic and/or where you were going so that wasn't bad at all! Communication with the apartment hosts was super easy, they weren't in town while we stayed but we're still readily available if we need anything! Great experience all together!

I highly enjoyed my first Airbnb experience at Fanny's place. The bedroom shown (with the slanted roof) is especially great because its one of two on the top floor of the house, allowing for a lot of privacy. Additionally, it comes with a rather private living room and kitchen, making the place feel like a full home. Fanny was also exceptionally welcoming,  helping me to carry my suitcases and dropping me off at the nearest station when I was ready to leave. The surrounding neighborhood is filled with a lot of local convenience shops that sell various things-clothes, shoes, food, and a  local CVS. All in all, I felt that I could not have had a luckier first experience with Airbnb.

We had an excellent trip to Boston while staying with Melissa. The bed was really comfortable and clean. She was 100% genuine and full of great spots to enjoy good food and casual drinks.

The host made us extremely welcome. Prompt replies to emails and as said even collected us from the T station on arrival as we had travelled a long way. The area is very pleasant with local shops and restaurants within walking distance. Only a short walk to Jackson Square T or buses on the high street. If you have a car there is off road parking. It was also quiet and set back from the street. We will definitely return of our son stays in Boston.

We enjoyed everything about our stay in this beautiful apartment in West Roxbury.  Everything was exactly as pictured and described (or better!).  John was prompt, professional and helpful in all communication.  The apartment is very clean, spacious, comfortable, newly refinished and has everything you could need.  Really everything was fantastic - beds super comfortable, crisp clean linens, well equipped kitchen.  Big bright windows and easy parking on the opposite side of the street.  Our kids asked if we wanted to live here!  We hope to stay here on our next visit to Boston.  Highly recommended.

We felt immediately at home in the apartment. Kelly and Phil were casual and very welcoming to share their warm, special house. The 3rd floor was all ours, the kitchen area was new and convenient alike the bathroom. Nice big King bed! Excellent job in decorating allover. The area invites for a stroll to admire the gorgeous house, and having coffee on central street a nice treat. The walk to the subway is 10 minutes and in another 10 minutes in the subway you are downtown Boston. A definite recommendation to stay!

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay! The room and amenities were more than we could have expected. The little things, like freshly made muffins and a keurig coffee machine in the kitchen, are what I believe made our stay that much better! Barney welcomed us to his home and helped direct us to the T station. The area was very nice and we felt very safe throughout our two days in Boston. Although we didn't spend too much time at the house, it was nice that the Carney family had a no curfew policy, where we could come back to our room without waking the family up to enter their house. We loved our stay and cannot thank the Carney family enough for their hospitality!

Jenny's apartment was perfect and just as described!  Phenomenal location, easygoing and communicative host, impeccably decorated apartment, and plenty of sleeping space.
<br/>
<br/>Myself and five friends (six of us total) stayed in the apartment for three nights and it was the perfect place for us!  Best of all, the place is so centrally located (and in a great area) -- we were able to walk all over the city from there.  All six of us slept comfortably and Jenny was kind enough to have a large and comfortable air bed setup in the nursery for us upon our arrival.  The outdoor patio was also a nice feature.  We were lucky enough to snag visitor parking spots right outside the apartment (and therefore not pay for parking over the weekend), but even if we had not been able to do so there is relatively cheap parking right across the street.
<br/>
<br/>Jenny prepared a very helpful document detailing locations of key items/how to work appliances/etc. and was available by cell if we had any questions.  She was also very thoughtful in providing some essentials, leaving us coffee, having towels out for us on each bed, etc.
<br/>
<br/>I would definitely stay at Jenny's apartment again!  Overall it was a great experience.

Her house is nice and clean. We finally had a good sleep after few days' hostel life in New York. She has a lovely garden and cats. And actually I think it's convenience to get to the city center from her house. Many thanks to Rebecca. She is a person with real warm heart inside.

This was a beautiful home in the lovely Boston neighborhood of Jamaica Plains. The room was large, the entire third floor of the house, and very well appointed.

We were very pleased with our stay.

Michelle seemed like a lovely woman and I can see why people would enjoy her company. However I felt as though there was a discrepancy with the photos of the room and the actual room. The room was extremely dusty and dirty despite Michelle saying that the place is "professionally cleaned". I found quite a few dead bugs in the room that should've been cleaned up. There was also a lot of flies, spiders, and centipedes in the room. The sink and the tub was constantly plugged and the water would always fill up even as I was just brushing my teeth. There were brown stains on the bottom of the tub and the shower was extremely slow. I had to wash my hair by dumping buckets of water on my head. On top of the hygiene factor, I also found that the area was unsafe. Upon arrival I already saw a bunch of men under house arrest hanging around our area and they gave myself and my friend quite a hard time by following us around and catcalling us. This happened over the next few days - being followed and being called extremely nasty things. After some investigation, I also found that a man was shot/stabbed repeatedly just a few blocks away from Michelle's home. That made me feel extremely uncomfortable and unsafe, and I actually had to book a hotel for the last night. Although everyone's tolerance for hygiene and safety is different, I found it unbearable to stay even one more night at Michelle's home.

Adam was very helpful and responsive. The place was just like the pictures. I was visiting boston on a business trip and found this place perfect. Adam was kind enough to have some snack, water and coffee for our first day. I also asked for an air mattress which were ready for us upon arrival. Overall a very enjoyable stay would recommend! <br/>The only thing was that i was informed that the place was on the 4th floor, but it was actually on the 2nd floor. We were sorry to have disturbed the neighbors upstairs by trying to open their doors with our keys, but they were very kind in understanding.  One last tip, dont leave your luggage unattended infront of the doorsteps. (Which is very obvious but still). We left our luggage infront of the main entrance, and while we went upstairs to bring down our other stuff (which took like 2 minutes), our suitcases were gone. We caught a random man living just around the corner right as he was taking our luggage inside his house, and found them back. This is solely our fault but be careful though! :)

when i stay in a location, i try to capture the flavor of a place. Marie and Gerrard's apartment did just that. their house is gorgeous and a period home, with the apartment downstairs.
<br/>it was roomy and comfortable, too. looks just like the pictures.
<br/>check in was easy. Gerrard spent time with us pointing out places to see. Marie stopped by after work to make sure everything was okay.
<br/>the washer dryer was great. my daughter used it, as we had spent 5 days in NYC prior to our Charlestown visit.
<br/>the sofa bed was comfortable. did have trouble finding a place to put the coffee table, when the bed was pulled out. 
<br/>the neighborhood is great and within walking distance of Bunker Hill and the Freedom Trail. 
<br/>A shopping mall and restaurants are within walking distance, too.
<br/>We made a loop to go to Boston. We went to the wharf and viewed the USS Constitution, then took the ferry to Long Wharf. From there we started the freedom trail. It is an amazing walk. Wear sturdy, comfortable shoes, as most of the walk is bricks, which some were missing and uneven. It's easy to miss Paul Revere's house....and Faneuil Hall is a must see.
<br/>we walked back to the apartment.
<br/>We used UBER the next day to take us to Lexington. We did their trolley tour of Lexington/Concord. I highly recommend this tour. Wish we could have spent more time here. The battle trail would have been interesting to do.
<br/>Our experience with UBER was great. We used them for getting to the airport, as well as getting back and forth from Lexington. they were 5 minutes away, all times, were polite. If you use them, look at reviews, because people list coupon codes, and you can save $20 off your first trip.
<br/>wow-guess I got carried away.
<br/>this was an amazing stay and area of the country to visit. Marie and Gerrard made it more special by sharing their place with us. Thanks.

Terry reached out in advance to ensure that we had all the information we needed to get into the apartment, find a parking spot, etc. The apartment itself was very clean, well maintained, and comfortable. It had all the amenities of a hotel and more, considering that there is a full kitchen. I also would disagree with an earlier review in that this area IS safe. My family and I felt comfortable staying in this area and walking to and from the T stop. I should add that it's a very brief walk. The apt is great and I would recommend it to others! It's a steal of a deal.

The area is good, we drove to Forest Hills T-station (parking is $6-$8/day) and bought a week-long pass for unltd. travel for $16 each (it was inexpensive for 5 of us to do that). I didn't explore the area much as we had gone for my cousin's graduation from Harvard and had activities there all day for 4 days. However, it looked really nice when we drove past, there were some nice shops and restaurants within walking distance. There is also an overground train station that is walking distance from the house, however you have to pay for that outside of the T pass.

This was a great place to stay while I was attending a conference at the World Trade Center. It had all of the basic things I needed & none that I did not need. Located so close to public transportation (the "T" & Hubway) with a little grocery down the street & walking distance to the beach, it made my stay very easy. Manuela was friendly & helpful with directions & recommendations. Great price!

Jennifer arranged to be home in the middle of the day to welcome us, and continued to meet all our needs graciously until we left. When we expressed interest in her chickens, she led us out to the yard for an introduction. The next morning we had very, very fresh eggs. 
<br/>
<br/>The bed is supremely comfortable, the room airy, the bathroom elegant and the house full of character. There were even homemade brownies -- from scratch -- coming out of the oven one night as we came in. Jennifer is a generous, lovely woman, and we feel privileged to have stayed in her home. We would definitely return.

Stayed at Alex's place in May 2015. Just as described in the listing. It was new, modern and very comfortable. Master bedroom in the basement also gave some privacy from the kids :) The space was fairly large and comfortable for a family of four. Parking was on the street but ample parking which was a big plus. I understand that the area is not the best if you speak to Boston folks but we thought the area was just fine - a short drive to anywhere in Boston. There was perhaps an issue that there were no eating places/grocery stores we could see within walking distance but since we had a rental, that was not an issue at all. 
<br/>Overall, great stay. Alex was always available to help but we since everything was well set up, we didn't need any help !!

This location is great, travelling was no hassle and a few nice restaurants close by. I loved the look of the neighborhood, it had some fantasy element I can't pinpoint.
<br/>
<br/>The house has a lot of character and lots of places to sit down for some quiet time and even when there were 5-6 other guests around I had all the privacy I wanted.
<br/>
<br/>Jessica was fantastic, taking time from a busy schedule to show me around and give tips on where to go, what to do and where to eat, so I always had an idea of what I could do and where to go.
<br/>
<br/>All in all a great hassle free stay :).

Thomas was a wonderful host and I felt immediately as if I was in my own home, which is how I like to feel when traveling. His sweet and friendly dog added to that feeling. The neighborhood is a lovely and quiet residential neighborhood with restaurants and shops nearby. It’s a short walk to the “T” or you can take a bus at the corner. You can be in downtown Boston in less than 30 minutes. Thomas is ready with ideas, maps and advice if you need it, and also very respectful and unobtrusive. The king size bed was very comfortable—even better than at home! There is a small but lovely back porch for breakfast if you want to sit outside. (And he makes a great cup of coffee and muffins!) Thanks Thomas for your fine hospitality!

Manuela was the perfect hostess. I loved staying at their place. The location was perfect. It is right across from the Andrew Red line and it took me no time to get to the convention center. I felt safe and very comfortable. I'd love to visit again to hang out with Manuela. I had to change my arrival date and Manuela was super flexible and willing to work with me. I felt like it my home. I had access to a kitchen and private bathroom. I can't say enough about how at home I felt.
<br/>Thanks, Manuela for all your help.

We had a fantastic stay in Boston in this house.  The house was lovely, the neighbourhood nice, there were convenient restaurants / food shops close by and to get downtown it was only a couple of stops on the red line.  Tiffany’s guest guide had everything we needed and throughout the booking / stay she was great.

The North End condo was a perfect place for my 4 family members to meet up and comfortably stay during the week of my sister's graduation from Harvard. The Italian food was incredible and the historical surroundings kept us intellectually stimulated. The T (Boston's public transportation system) was nearby to catch and travel the city. <br/>The couch bed was super comfy, and I even shared it with my aunt! <br/>We had so much fun. Cindy and Mark were fantastic hosts, and I will probably stay here again when I travel to Boston.

Neighborhood is very quaint. You can walk to helpful places like CVS and Whole Foods. Also not too distant from a T station, and Uber drivers had no problem finding us. We did rent a car for our day trip to the Cape, but warning for out-of-towners that Boston traffic on the weekdays is not for the faint of heart. Kitchen is well equipped.

The apartment is well located, large and very clean. Liesl has included lots of extras to make the place feel as comfortable as a great hotel. Soft towels, home made muesli, tea selection etc all greatly appreciated. Some brilliant restaurants in the area and Liesl has plenty of recommendations (Yes, the Fish Taco's at Picco really are awesome!). I will certainly try here first the next time I'm passing through Boston.

Trisha's apartment was perfect for our stay in Boston for our daughter's graduation. As clean as a high end hotel and the beds too! Trisha and her husband were wonderful hosts. They responded to an early heat wave by installing the window air conditioning units themselves, when their maintenance crew was unavailable. They even brought us a nice bottle of wine! The North End is such a cool neighborhood, with great restaurants and ambiance. We loved going back there at the end of the day, after the craziness that is Cambridge during Harvard graduation week. <br/>We were able to walk the Freedom Trail from the apartment, and take the T to the MFA. We caught a wine tasting down the street at The Golden Goose - think Whole Foods meets Trader Joes or Sprouts pricing. A gem of a neighborhood market.<br/>A great stay. Don't hesitate to book!

Miriam was very good about communicating check in times and responded to my questions promptly. Her husband was very courteous and made us feel right at home when we arrived. The studio apartment had everything we needed including a blow dryer, shower amenities, clean towels, free wifi, free parking, fresh fruit and bagels. The place was small, but absolutely spotless. One of my favorite aspects of this studio was the bed, which was extremely comfortable --- perfect for a good night's rest. Thank you Miriam and Hasban. Your hospitality was much appreciated.

Jose was very helpful in getting me and my girlfriend set up at his place for a week. We enjoyed the close proximity to the many great restaurants and attractions in the North End. We felt very safe as the alley was well-lit at night. The amenities were great and the window AC unit helped us get through some very hot and humid summer nights. If you are a light sleeper, be wary that you can hear what is going on in the apartment upstairs, as the floorboards creak and the sound insulation is not the best. However, we had no trouble sleeping. Thank you!

Jessica made our first Airbnb experience a good one. The apartment was clean and just as advertised. The back porch/deck was a very pleasant place to sit for morning coffee and in the evenings after sightseeing. Room rate was a good value during a busy time in May with graduations, etc.  While the Upham's Corner/Savin Hill area is several T stops from the main attractions one gets a feel for local life in this lovely neighborhood with nearby store and T stop. We used the T mostly and uber when we were too tired to make the 8-block walk back up to the apartment. Breakfast at local favorite McKenna's Diner was a real treat. We recommend this property!

Die Wohnung sieht aus wie auf den Bildern, sie ist zwar sehr klein, aber man hat alles was man braucht und der Platz ist gut genutzt.
<br/>Jonathan haben wir zwar leider nicht persönlich getroffen, er war aber per Mail sehr hilfreich (um bspw. unser Gepäck noch nach Checkout bei sich aufzubewahren) und nett. Check-In Zeiten sind variabel, da man über einen Code in die Wohnung kommt.
<br/>
<br/>Einziger Nachteil: Die Wohnung scheint sehr hellhörig und die Klimaanlage ist recht laut.
<br/>
<br/>Alles in allem ein sehr angenehmer Aufenthalt. Die Wohnung ist wie beschrieben gut mit öffentlichen Verkehrsmitteln zu erreichen. Für einen Citytrip nach Boston zu empfehlen.

Larry David was away when we arrived, as expected, but had had kindly arranged for a neighbour to give us the keys and show us around.  Both were VERY kind in answering questions and getting things organised for us, well above and beyond the simple minimum one would expect.
<br/>   The apartment was just as it was described and the neighbourhood was lovely.  Centrally located a stone's throw from Acorn Street (the most photographed street in Boston), excellent for getting to all points in the city, but a decidedly charming residential area with few tourists.  One could feel like a local wandering beautiful Beacon Hill, dining and shopping down on Charles Street, Jogging along the Charles River and taking in the sun on the docks there.  
<br/> However, we also had a reception hosted by French embassy at the Massachusetts State House and walked along the Freedom Trail from Boston Common like good tourists; both of these attractions are less than five minutes away.  Further away, research at the lovely Boston Public Library is a relaxing walk across the park and past the swan boats, and the "T" up to MIT and Harvard in Cambridge or down to South Station in town are also direct on the Red Line, so no changes and a quick commute!
<br/>Overall, a wonderful visit.

Grace and Charles are great hosts. They are very kind and helpful people. The description was accurate, in overall. The place is close to Harvard square, so anybody who have things to do at or around Harvard, this is great location. 15-20 min walk to Harvard square / subway. Alternatively one can take bus 66 to get there. Close to subway and donuts cafes. Closest supermarket, Shaws is 15-20 min walk. Quite and safe neighborhood. Roommates were very interesitng, friendly and intellectual people too.  The  cleanliness and comfot of the room is okay, but for the picky guys may be insufficient.

Everything about my experience was great.  The location is fantastic -- steps from great restaurants, coffee shops, grocery stores, pharmacies, and yoga studios (if that's your thing).  You can easily commute to anywhere via public transit --  Back Bay T stop (orange line) is only about 7 minutes away by walking and the Copley T stop (green line) is only a few minutes further and there is even a useful bus stop on this block.  The host, Laura, was fantastic.  She welcomed me into the place, helped with luggage and always made sure my stay was enjoyable (over a span of several months!).  The apartment itself has everything you need -- good heating and A/C, a good and efficient kitchen, a very nice bathroom, and the design and layout are great too.  There really isn't anything not to like about the place unless you need a lot of space.  I would HIGHLY recommend you stay here -- you will not regret it.

My girlfriend were visiting Boston to attend a graduation, and we had the pleasure of staying with Hilary, Hazel and Aggie the dog. Hilary and Hazel were very hospitable, accommodating and gave us excellent advice and directions about the city. Hilary also gave us full access to her wonderful kitchen, but we didn't have the time to cook, which is a shame. When the weather got hot, Hilary gave us a fan for our bedroom room. And when it started raining the next day, she gave us umbrellas to use while out in the town. The stay was absolutely wonderful, and the house itself is just gorgeous and full of all sorts of art pieces. Just hanging out in the living room and doing nothing was therapeutic for us. We already know where we'll be staying the next time we visit Boston.

<br/>Note: Aggie the dog is the cutest and friendliest dog you'll come across.

My husband and I loved staying at Janet's place. 
<br/>
<br/>The apartment was clean and as described, and there is an AC window unit for steamy Boston days. The little kitchenette can be concealed behind sliding doors. The space is quite small (there is one small sitting chair, in addition to what is pictured online), and the shower is tiny. However, there's plenty of closet space and it's certainly sufficient for a visit. The location and price definitely make up for the petite size :)  
<br/>
<br/>The building is a lovely brownstone in a beautiful neighborhood-- it's a fabulous location (there's a Peet's around the corner, as well as Tatte bakery-- amazing for breakfast or lunch!!)-- super urban but quiet feeling and a close walk to the T. The studio is a unit on the third floor of the building, which is otherwise occupied by other renters and Janet.
<br/>
<br/>We would love to stay there again, and thanks to Janet for everything.

Ella and Will are wonderful hosts. The best, one can wish for. Ella texted me before our arrival and explained everything in advance and asked for any specific accommodations we might need.
<br/>The pictures are accurate and the house looks exactly as depicted.  
<br/>The house was extremely clean and in order, Ella has even put together a little binder with house rules and useful info about the neighborhood stores, restaurants and local attractions. It also includes two chargeable public transportation cards which helped us a lot. You can use it for riding buses and the metro in Boston. It had some initial dollar amount so you could use it for a ride or two to your first destination(s).
<br/>The house is located in the suburbs of Boston but not too far away; about a 20 minute train ride from the house to Boston south station (in the downtown). It is very close to grocery shops and good restaurants. Very peaceful, quiet and relaxing neighborhood/house. We really enjoyed our time here :)
<br/>There is a bus station right in front of the street the house is located in and the train station is less than a 5 minute walk. The only thing I would recommend if you're using the public transportation is to take the bus to the "forest hills" station (about a 10 minute bus ride) and then from there take the orange metro line to downtown Boston. You will save more money this way. The pricier, yet more straight-forward option is to take the commuter train from the Rosindale village station to Boston south station.  
<br/>There was also a rich resource of brochures and info sheets of all you can do in Boston and it's vicinity.
<br/>I hope you choose to stay with Ella and Will and enjoy all they have to offer :)

We rented Jeff's "little blue house" - quoted our 3 year old son - for our 10th year college reunion. Jeff went out of his way to make us feel welcomed, including writing "Welcome back to Boston" backwards on the bathroom wall so that we can read it in the mirror! Our children had such fun in this well-organized, well-supplied 2 bedroom, so much so that my 3 year old cried when we had to leave. Everything was well labeled and we are provided with a binder full of information, a food/wine basket and of course the delicious banana bread so we didn't have to stress about breakfast on our first morning. The location is close to everything and parking is not a problem at all. I would definitely recommend it, particularly to families with young children.
