Mikkie's place is very clean, comfortable and in a convenient location. She met us at check in to go over all the features in the apartment and answer any questions. The space had everything we needed for a relaxing stay. We would definitely come again.

Fabulous time in Medford! Mikkie, our host, is an amazing human. She steered us in the right direction for lovely walks, yummy food & drinks. Restaurants & cute shops walkable with easy access to public transportation in to Boston. Her back garden is an oasis - we enjoyed morning coffee & evening cocktails! We loved our spacious & well-stocked apartment. It truly was PERFECT!

This charming garden apartment was perfect for my husband and I during our five night stay. It is clean & cozy with a beautiful backyard garden that even lights up at night. This was our first visit to Boston and wanted a place that was close to Cambridge, the downtown area and to the airport. The neighborhood is also near the river for nature walks and has easy access to grocery stores, public transportation, etc. The apartment has everything you need to feel right at home. The host is super organized and friendly. The booking was easy to do & the host kept in touch to make sure everything was Ok. She was also very responsive if we had any questions.Overall we had a wonderful stay & would recommend it to anyone who wants to stay in a good location at a reasonable price.

We stayed here on May 5-8, 2026. It was wonderful. Our plane was delayed to Boston, which made us getting in later. Mikkie was able to accommodate us no problem. The backyard is beautiful. It has beautiful lights and plants. I wish we had more time there just to relax in the back yard. The apartment was well equipped and Mikkie even gave us distilled water for our cpap machines. She gave us information for good places to eat. We were within a couple of miles of Cambridge, which is where my son was graduating from college. It was a great trip and I would stay here again!
