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.

The house was perfect for hosting a gathering of friends - everyone had plenty of space, the rooms were clean, and Lucas was very responsive. The roads/parking was a little confusing to navigate for out-of-towners but that didn't affect the quality of our stay whatsoever. We would come back again!

Barbara S.

Liked: Cleanliness, listing accuracy
Parking was convenient and the house was very roomy. However, in the evenings, mornings and off and on through the night, the heating system sounded like someone was hitting the pipes with a hammer. Our little dog was terrorized and our sleep was often disrupted. That was really our only complaint but it was a big one.

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.

Disliked: Cleanliness, communication, location, listing accuracy
We were extremely disappointed with the condition of this property. Upon arrival, there was trash surrounding the home and throughout the yard, including drug paraphernalia. Inside, the cleanliness was unacceptable—bed sheets were covered in hair, and there was hair in the shower as well. Overall, the house was very poorly maintained.There were also several maintenance issues. The upstairs bathroom sink handle came off in your hand when turning it on, and there was no hot water due to a rusted and nonfunctional water heater.Additionally, the layout was inconvenient, as there is no bathroom on the main level, only one in the basement and one upstairs.Based on our experience, we would not recommend this property to others. All furniture was very old. The heat and AC did not work.
