Convenient Residence in Roslindale

The purpose of our four-night stay in Roslindale was a family get-together with our son and daughter-in-law who live there. This property in a residential area close to the town center served that purpose perfectly.The property was exceptionally clean and neat. The street parking proved adequate and convenient during our stay. We especially appreciated the speedy snow and ice removal, which would otherwise have been difficult for us to deal with and would have delayed our planned activities.

Fantastic apartment in a wonderful location!

We wanted to stay near Boston, close to the train lines and in an area with great food and coffee. We found it here! A fantastic quiet apartment in a great location for everything we needed. I work remote so I was able to work in the back office area, my wife could just jump on the commuter rail just a 10 mins walk from the apartment. Clean, quiet with a great kitchen for making food. We recommend!

Comfortable stay.

My family came to Roslindale for a wedding weekend, and found this condo a restful retreat after busy days. It was clean and well equipped. The beds are very comfortable, and the neighborhood quiet. We walked into the village for restaurants and shopping. Highly recommend.

Great place!

We enjoyed our stay in this updated home. It was clean, nice and modern, and comfortable. Our group of 5 family members slept comfortably, and during the day there were up to 8 of us (with additional family who live in a small apartment nearby joining us during the day). We found the supply of kitchen tools and utensils a little deficient, but we probably stayed in and cooked more than most would. The host was attentive and responsive when we had questions. Would definitely recommend it, and we would be happy to stay here again.

Beautiful property with incredibly kind managers/owners

This is a really lovely apartment, comfortably appointed with many niceties. We stayed here because of its close proximity to Mass General/B&W Faulkner Hospital, where my husband was having major surgery. Hitesh and Priyanka were incredibly kind and patient, especially given my slow responsiveness to messages due to my distractions while caring for my husband at the hospital. The apartment is beautifully decorated and comfortable, with lots of reminders for guests around the building to observe quiet hours and be considerate of others. It was, as a result, a very quiet and restorative haven during an incredibly stressful time. While Jamaica Plain is not as hectic as say, downtown Boston or some areas in Brookline, this is a especially peaceful place. Many thanks due for our stay. Would give more than five stars if I could.

Wonderful Stay

Our family had a wonderful stay at this property. There was more than enough room for our family of 6. We loved the cleanliness and thoughtful design details. There was also plentiful parking on the street, which was very handy, as we had to make frequent trips to the airport and downtown Boston. Finally, our host was very responsive and helpful. Thanks for everything!

Suburban Massachusetts at it’s finest!

Splendid property in lovely, quaint, and clearly well-to-do rural neighbourhood on the outskirts of Boston. We felt right at home in this wonderful area and very comfortable in the immaculately presented apartment. It was very clean and finished to a very high standard, with all the amenities you could need for a vacation stay. We were pleased to be able to park for free directly outside the property each time, even after being out all day and arriving back late at night. It was also very useful to have the village of Roslindale within walking distance along with rail and metro transport into central Boston and beyond

Great landing pad for family arrivals and exits

Great location outside of the main Boston area but still close to the action. Having the second 1/2 bath helped to allow our (sometimes 6 adults and sometimes 4 adults) schedule access to the shower and still have multiple people getting ready at the sinks and toilets. It would have been a little better with a 2nd shower, but still great. The small study room along with the three bedrooms and full living room made it so everyone had space to unpack and relax when at the apartment. The study was a great place to put all of the luggage (4 big suitcases and some smaller carry-on bags) so the bedrooms were kept uncluttered. Nice sized kitchen and refrigerator for supporting cooking for the family as well as storing the leftovers from the restaurant visits.

Great Landing Spot

Our family (sister, brother, niece - all adults) enjoyed this lovely apartment for our time exploring Boston and making several side trips. The apartment is on the second floor and you must walk up several steps to the front door to get in, so if mobility is an issue this might not be the spot for you (that was not a concern for us). The location is easy to find, in the cute neighborhood of Roslindale. Street parking is available to guests in this apartment, but that is no problem (we parked each night in front of the building). Communication from the owner before and during our stay was easy and access to the unit was smooth. We enjoyed that the living room was set up to accommodate multiple people to watch the large screen tv, that the dining room offered plenty of seating for meals and games, and that the bedrooms were each furnished with comfortable beds and bed linens. There is one full bath and one half bath and there were plenty of fluffy towels. There is a washer and dryer, but we did not need to make use of those. There is a coffee maker and a toaster in addition to the main kitchen appliances. This family neighborhood is quiet at night, and walking about to start the day was nice. There are a number of cute shops and restaurants (Sophia's Grotto was outstanding) in the Roslindale area. For meals you would like to eat in, there are also several nearby grocery stores. We truly enjoyed our stay!

I would definitely stay here again.

Relaxing and safe stay with all the comforts of home

We LOVED our stay at your well-appointed home. Our family of four had room to spread out and relax when we returned each day from visiting area colleges. It was wonderful to be able to easily prepare breakfasts and lunches in the kitchen. Everything we needed to use was there! The beds were very comfortable and we all enjoyed relaxing in the living room while watching movies. Thank you so much for a fantastic stay! We'd love to stay again in the future!

Fantastic stay right outside of Boston

Stayed with a group of friends and family and this property was excellent. Very clean, spacious, and had all of the amenities you need. Extremely clean and well kept. It is approx. a 20-25 minute uber ride into the main areas of Boston. Great coffee shop and convenience store right down the street in walking distance. Downtown Roslindale is also a short 20 minute walk away. The neighborhood felt very safe and beautifully quiet. Host was also extremely responsive and helpful, thanks for a great stay!

Spacious, lovely apartment with easy parking

The apartment was just like the images on vrbo, if anything even more spacious and lovelier than we expected. It was super clean and well equipped. And the owner responded within minutes when we had a small question or two. It was easy to get into and out of downtown Boston from here. And we loved the neighborhood, especially the Green Tea coffee shop. Definitely interested in coming back next time we are in town.
