Great place!

This apartment was perfect for our couples weekend trip to Boston: 15 minutes walking to the red line, quiet (for a city) neighbourhood, clean space, and parking. The only downside was the upstairs residents seemed to be the most active from 10 pm to around 4 am every night, heavy footfalls and moving furniture across the floor. Otherwise its the perfect place to stay.

We absolutely loved staying here. It was very homey and comfortable for our family. They left a welcome bag which was very nice! We loved they had a portable bed for our child to sleep in the same room as us. Also, linens being provided was so very convenient. We do trips to the Boston childrens center and will definitely have this on radar for our next trip out!

Great Place!

With the traffic in Boston, you can't hardly beat the location. We loved the ease of driving to get to anywhere. Wifi signal was a bit poor in places and we weren't sure what the extra keys were for, but it was a great place to stay!

Wonderful return to Boston

We came for our daughter to attend some classes at Emerson. My husband grew up in the Boston area and felt like he was in his great aunt’s house. The house was great. The location was great. The entire trip was wonderful. Thank you!!!!

Nice and cozy place to stay

Their place are so clean, comfortable, and all that. Their mattress are so comfortable that were slept very well! Perfect parking spot (NOT on street parking) We stayed there for convention in Boston for few days! Boston hotels were so expensive so we’re glad that this house has everything we’d enjoy! Highly recommended!

Very nice stay for a few days in Boston

Everything was just as David had stated on the website, and he was very responsive to initial inquiries when booking and also upon arrival. Plenty of towels, and though we didn't need, there were extra toiletries in the event you forgot something. Bed was very comfortable and apartment was clean.
