Place was clean, but run down. Electrical issues, could cause fire, but host very responsive and changed bulbs so all the lamps could be used. Linens, kitchen, bathroom etc. was clean, location to BU was very good and free parking a great bonus. I would stay again.

Amazing location for the price. Check-in was super easy with clear instructions. Free parking was such a great perk for Boston. As for the house, despite a few visual damages (and 2 lightbulbs for the lamps not working), there was not much to complain about. Would recommend

Overall, we enjoyed this day, though it isn’t perfect. The area is safe and easy walking to the train and other places in the city. But the building itself is loud at night with mechanical noises and has lots of deferred maintenance like peeling paint from water damage and the door doesn’t seat very well. It was amazing to have the parking space for a car because we needed to drive out of town. But the car you bring needs to be small because the parking spaces are tight.

This stay overall was a great value for the money. Its location was perfect for us. However, be aware it is more of a "budget" stay. The laundry was communal coin operated in the basement, not private in-unit. The host was very responsive and provided coins for us. Unfortunately the washers were not in the best shape. I think the unit is currently undergoing some renovations so there was missing light fixtures in the unit. Ceiling sort of falling apart by leaky window. The door was very hard to deadbolt - we had to sort of pull up on the doorknob to lift the door. Lastly, I think we were next to the boiler room. The last 3 days of our stay, the apartment was 80. The walls were warm to the touch. Linens and towels were clean and great. Fridge was clean. Host was very responsive. Building was quiet and area seemed very safe, even on opening day at Fenway. Super close to a subway stop.

Very convenient location in quiet neighborhood

We stayed for our son's graduation from Berklee College of Music. The location was very convenient for us, especially with the T Green line a couple of blocks away. The parking spot in the back was a huge bonus since street parking is scarce. My wife's only suggestion was for a mirror in the bedroom since there is only one bathroom when getting ready to go out.

We were disappointed. We booked weeks before our stay and had some questions for the host. He never responded to those messages. The phone number provided for him said leave a message, but his mailbox was always full. We wanted verification on the number of beds and where they were located. It turned out that there was a queen bed and a twin bed in the bedroom. In the other room (small kitchen with a high table and 4 chairs and a couch), there was a 2nd twin bed. We needed the 2nd twin bed, but it definitely didn’t fit well in the kitchen, leaving little walk space and no access to the couch. On check-in day, we finally got communication and they allowed us to place our bags inside and use the parking space, which was appreciated (but we were scolded for keeping the key while we did this, instead of immediately putting it back in the lockbox). The ceiling lights flickered badly and we then saw a note taped to the wall to not use them. That’s a fire hazard that should be corrected immediately. The paint on the bedroom ceiling was peeling and hanging down. Giving it 2 stars because the bathroom, the sheets & towels and the kitchen were clean, parking was provided and it was a 5 min walk to Fenway park. But I won’t stay here again.

The room was more spacious than I expected or what the pictures showed. It was clean and within a 5 to 10 minute walk to Fenway Park. It is right next to Boston University and I was visiting my son at Emmanuel College (Colleges of the Fenway) which was only a 15 to 20 minute walk from the location. I definitely recommend this rental. Will look to rent this place again in the future.
