Peaceful, cozy, good location

We stayed here a few nights to visit our student at Tufts and enjoyed it. The apartment was clean, cozy, and pleasant. Comfortable beds! Its location has easy access to Tufts, the freeway, and other destinations. Having a driveway parking spot is very convenient.

Wonderful Spot!

I needed to visit family in Medford and this location was perfect. Just a 15 minute walk to Ball Square Green Line station. The host had everything I needed and also provided some fun snacks and water as a welcome gift. Bed was super comfortable.

Perfect place in the suburbs of Boston

The house was amazing and perfect for my family! We reached out in advance to George for an early check-in as we came in on the red eye with children. Even though the property was booked the night before, George got it cleaned and ready for us by noon and it made a world of difference! My kids loved playing hide and seek with all the nooks and crannies to hide in. My son insisted making a bed in the closet with the extra mattress and called it his Harry Potter house. This was his favorite trip ever bc he got to sleep in a closet under the stairs! The place was very clean and much bigger than the pictures portray. Everything we needed was provided -including coffee pods and clothes washing detergents. They even had a welcome basket for us with snacks and water. The place is very convenient to the subway line, which gives you easy access to everywhere you'd want to go. The town of Medford has a lot to offer itself including a great grocery store and lots of amazing restaurants. The host is very responsive and will do anything to make your stay top notch!

Liked: Cleanliness, location
Disliked: Check-in, communication
This place received excellent reviews in the past so was surprised our experience was much different. Not given correct check in information, no clear indication where designated parking was, no extra kitchen or bath towels, no flat sheets on two of the beds, no hand soap for shower. Fitted sheet on King bed had lost all elastic kept shifting during sleep. The two times I spoke with host he was curt. Location was very good and easy to walk to cute bakery and train station.

Good value place

The place is very nice inside, it's a renovated unit in an older house. We stayed as a family with 3 kids. Every one had their own bed. Kids found some games to play. We received a nice welcome basket. Also, there are some basic supplies in the kitchen and toiletries. The shower head was broken, but was super quickly replaced a couple of hours after we reported it. It's about 13 min walk to Ball station on the Green line, easy way to get into Boston. Overall, I would recommend.
