A delightful alternative to an expensive Boston hotel
Joe is fantastic to communicate with and he was readily available if needed. Lots of space for our group of four adults to comfortably relax and two of us were able to work all day from the dedicated work spaces in two of the bedrooms. Very convenient to stay parked and take Uber rides into Boston for sight seeing and restaurant reservations. And no check out cleaning rules! I highly recommend!

Boston girls trip
I recently stayed at this property with my teenage daughter, and two of her friends and their moms. The property was perfect! Every mom/daughter pair had their own room (3 total). The beds were comfortable, property was spacious enough for 6 people, and we really enjoyed having a full kitchen to prepare meals and snacks. It was so much better than a hotel!

Fabulous 3 Bedroom Apt. Close to Tufts
This apartment has everything you would want: well equipped, squeaky clean kitchen, comfortable sectional couch with large TV, perfect dining area options (indoor and outdoor), desks, laundry machines, comfortable beds and clutter free decor. If you are visiting someone at Tufts University, the athletic field complex for lacrosse, field hockey, soccer, baseball and softball are only a few blocks away and the main campus and T station just a little further. There are good dining options within walking distance and the two off street parking spots are helpful. The host is responsive, kind and helpful. I would HIGHLY recommend this spot,

Comfortable, nice decor, short walk from Tufts
Joe's place is comfortable, tastefully decorated, and spotlessly clean. It has been nicely renovated. I like the hardwood floors, and it is bright and airy. We came to visit Tufts, and the campus is a 15 to 20 minute walk away, as is the green line T (Tufts stop or Ball Square). Communication from Joe was excellent. He was nice enough to let us arrive early, and also responded immediately and came right by when we had a minor plumbing problem. I would stay here again.
