This house was conveniently located near the trolley (approx. 3 block walk) which took us to the trolley then subway to downtown area of Boston, so we could leave our vehicle in the driveway (which has a nice L-shaped driveway). The 3 bedroom / 2 bath house was roomy and comfortable for four friends. Large kitchen with plenty of ‘appliances’The host was quick to respond with questions about the house / the area…. We would stay here again if in the area.

Boston-Mattapan

Wonderful host & house. Victor was quick to respond to questions and got the propane refilled in no time. The little touches like coffee pods & tea bags were so welcome! Having a washer & dryer to use was great too. The area was quieter than we expected & an easy enough walk to the grocery/pharmacy if one chose to. The house was spotless and the linens were very nice. We will definitely recommend this to anyone going to Boston who doesn’t want to be in the downtown area.

We had a great stay. House is clean and well equipped. It’s walking distance to the train line that allowed us to park the car and not use it at all during our stay.

The home was nice. Well kept on the inside. Not a place for someone with any form of mobility issues as the stairway to the 2nd floor is narrow and steep. We felt there was some misconceptions on how far away the home is located from the airport, grocery store, etc. If you times what it says on the listing by 2, it would be more accurate. With that said, Victor was easy to work with and we weren't in a hurry to be anywhere, so the place was nice.

Great place, nice neighborhood

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay at this lovely and clean home. Please make sure you double check the address as there are two identical addresses in Boston and I booked this house for Harvard graduation thinking it was 15 minutes away when it was actually about 50. However, that was my bad—it is listed correctly and public transit is convenient and close by.

Cute house close to plenty of dining

This house is in a great location and within walking distance of a grocery store and a lot of dining options. The area is cute and the house is well maintained with plenty of room for 6 people. Downtown Boston is about 30 minutes away (depending on traffic) which was quite convenient. Would stay here again.

Quiet and Comfortable

We spent 10 days at this residence during early May. Temperatures in the area were just right, 55-65 degrees and partly sunny most of the time. Most of our activities were all throughout Boston. We also traveled to Salem and Cape Cod. We did not try the train system but used ride shares, which took about 30-40 minutes to or from central Boston. This home is awesome. It is very clean, nicely decorated, and has a roomy kitchen and comfortable beds. We enjoyed sitting on the front porch and back deck to read or eat breakfast. The one large TV in the living room offered plenty of streaming platforms. Be aware there are interior stairs leading to two bedrooms and a bathroom. The grocery store, several restaurants, and a terrific local ice cream store are only a few minutes' walk. Our favorite restaurant was Steel and Rye, which has delicious made-to-order burgers and a unique Caesar salad. Though the home is technically in Mattapan, which we've heard has a questionable reputation, this area is upscale and beautiful, with friendly residents, and is SO quiet! It was a lovely stay for us.

A little outside Boston proper, good value

Overall a nice property. Easy check in and check out process. It's nicely updated. Outlets in bathrooms werent working, brought to attention of owner, so should be taken care of. Nice off street parking. In better weather, couldve been walkablecto grocery store and restaurants. Not a terrible drive to get to major Boston sights.

I stayed here with family members. We thought the property was very lovely and in a pleasant neighborhood. Everything we could need was in the house. We especially appreciated the toiletries and the Nespresso provided. Kitchen was fully functional. The property was very clean and the bedrooms and living spaces were nicely decorated. It felt more personable and comfortable than staying in a hotel. It was truly a nice getaway for us who were in the area to explore Boston!

Very Nice Overall

The house was very nice overall; clean & well-stocked. Beds were comfortable and bathrooms were clean. Just a couple of issues that we found. The hot water faucet handle on the downstairs bathroom comes off. So it needs to be fixed. Also all the doors creak-need to use WD40 on all the doors. Also, as a safety issue, plastic mats need to be in the bathtub/shower. We were 4 70 year old women and found the tub/shower floor to be slick…..
