GREAT

Everything was top notch with a great host and hospitality. The host is incredibly responsive and helpful. The location is perfect with some good restaurants nearby. It's also a quick drive or subway ride into Boston. The house is clean with hardwood floors throughout; there's a lot of space for people to have their own privacy or not. We truly had a great stay, and if we ever make it back to Boston, we would love to stay here again. We HIGHLY recommend.

Great weekend getaway!

This cozy yet spacious house in Medford was perfect for our family's weekend getaway. It's located in a safe, walkable neighborhood that's a mile from the shops and restaurants at Assembly Row. There's a great little Italian cafe called Cafe del Mar about a block away and a nice park with a playground across from the cafe. The house was clean, comfortable, and well-equipped. Alyssa was prompt and helpful with communicating with us before and during our stay. We would stay here again!
