Had a great stay. Was initially nervous as we didn’t get arrival information until very late the day of arrival, however communication was good after that. House fit out family well and location was great for our visit to Boston.

EZ Stay
Property was in average condition. Neither grill nor ice maker worked. Spartan interior decorating. Overgrown lawn. Lacks bathroom outlets. Lack of mirrors throughout house. House was very clean with comfortable seating.
