Clean, historic, and convenient location

We stayed here while at our son's Boston College location. Everything was well maintained, especially for being such an older, historic house, and the location was conveniently located.

The room was spotless, very spacious, lovely kitchen and bathroom all as luxurious as a 5 star hotel. The bed was one of the comfiest I have ever slept in! Nice quiet neighbourhood with restaurants a quick walk away. Charles the host was extremely helpful and swift in responding to any requests, including helping with luggage storage and going the extra mile and carrying it down the stairs. Would highly recommend!

It was a lovely room in a lovely home. Charles, the host, was very helpful and responsive. The patio was very private. It is like sitting in a tree house. Everything was impeccably clean. We would definitely return to this home should we return to the Boston area.

Pros: very clean, nice place to stay. Kitchen is well-equipped, bed was comfortable. Excellent decor, spacious.Other: for a 4 night stay, I was provided one bath towel and one disposable sponge, no washcloth, which is really odd. I went to Target to buy a 6-pack for 3. There are quite a few steps to climb to get to the front door, then more steps to the second story.Communication was ok.All in all, Charles was nice and helpful. I'd consider staying again!

Comfortable stay in a historical home

This was probably my favorite place to stay in Boston. The room is comfortable and clean. The shared spaces are beautiful and perfect for relaxing. The only drawback we had was distance from public transportation. StreetIt'snotdefinitely a home in s Hill

Anniversary Getaway

It was wonderful! Nice, quiet, cozy & clean! Close enough to the freeway & city to get around but far enough away from the city where you get a nice, homey feel. Definitely would recommend to anyone with a spouse/significant other for a nice, relaxing getaway.
