Great location right in quaint Melrose, which we wanted to be close to relatives for the holiday. Modern, spacious, clean, all amenities including w/d; big kitchen which we used for meals. Beautiful wood floors. Slept very well, quiet. Parking right at unit, which my husband really appreciated. Owners responsive and kind. Would definitely stay again.

Beautiful house and property
You enter through the bedroom and everything perfect. We didn’t get wifi from her but the phones did pick up wifi, but it was due to lack of communication, we were busy running to different restaurants and sight seeing Boston and Salem. 2 small inconveniences, limited towels and no wash cloths, (I always bring a set with me.)No pots or pans or plates or cups. There is a coffee maker. The lady we talked to was very nice and was helpful. The place was clean and well decorated. The chairs were comfortable. So don’t forget a hand towel and cups paper plates. Pot if you’re going to cook and ask the owner to turn on wifi right away. I would say on our trip it was a 10/10. I would stay there again.

Lovely Stay in Melrose Apartment
We were so pleased with our stay! The apartment was spacious and clean in a beautiful, quiet neighborhood. The owners were super friendly and helpful. Off street parking for our vehicle was a plus! The location was convenient to Boston as well as areas north. We appreciated the opportunity to stay and would return.
