Great location in Dorchester

Clean and spacious, this location is about a 5-10 minute walk from red line stops and 20 minutes from downtown Boston by transit. One cajun seafood and two pizza places are blocks away for easy dinner choices. This place is fantastic for families visiting the Boston area.

Went for a graduation at Northeastern

Clean comfortable and newly renovated. The neighborhood is being re-gentrified and still has some rough areas but we were able to walk to a fantastic Italian restaurant and St Marks church next door. Otherwise easy to Uber to all the sights of Boston.

Comfortable home away from home

Fantastic location for our college visit weekend. The large apartment was very comfortable and cozy. The snacks and extra towels were very welcome. The kitchen was well equipped with many plates, glasses, cookware, etc. Just bring your own spices and you are ready to cook up your meals. The extra bonus was on street parking and a nearby (walking distance) to walk our dog. The hosts were also very welcoming and responsive.

Fun times

Overall we had a great experience here. We didn't sleep the greatest the first two nights due to people coming and going upstairs at all hours of the night (not sure what was going on up there). But ear plugs saved the day/night. The house was clean and was a welcome respite for the hot summer days in Boston.

This is a lovely 3 bedroom condo about a 10 min walk from the Shawmut red line station. The off street parking is essential as on street parking is hard to find. The parking is stated to be two spots, but if you have a large vehicle ( ie large SUV, Truck, or minivan) it can really only accommodate one vehicle. This unit is in the Dorchester neighborhood. There were many nights and mornings that noise from the neighbors was disturbing at times making sleep challenging. Neighbors were friendly and no concern for safety. The hosts provided snacks on arrival, they also provided detergent pods for the clothes washer and dishwasher which was very convenient and helpful. There were large screen TV’s in each bedroom and the living room that were SMART TV’s. The HVAC system is loud, so at times it made it challenging to listen to the TV or have a conversation when it was running right next to you. The kitchen was well appointed to allow eat in meals. We had a very enjoyable stay and appreciated this location's many features.

Great vacation spot!

We loved staying here! Everything was so clean and tidy. The kitchen is well stocked and has wonderful new appliances. It was so nice to have a big beautiful new washing machine and dryer! We didn’t have any detergent so it was super easy to take an uber to a nearby Target - we could have walked but that route is not the safest. It is easy to find yourself in a questionable area as it is just a block or 2 away. Hence the 4 stars rather than 5. But, the walk to the nearest train station is through a lovely, safe area and it is easy to get to downtown Boston. We never heard noise from the upstairs neighbor or elsewhere - it was a quiet apartment. Bathrooms are super small but very clean. Great shower head too! The owners thought of nice little things like snacks on arrival and board games. We would definitely recommend staying here! My only suggestion would be another mirror in the bedrooms so that you could put on makeup while your partner is in the bathroom.

Weekend stay

We were there for a graduation celebration. We rented a car since it was not so convenient to take the T. The apartment was very clean, easy check in and check out. We did not cook anything so we can’t evaluate the kitchen but it was clean and the host had snack, water and teas for us to use. Very kind of them. We did use the washer and dryer very Convenient. Our only complaint was the upstairs neighbors. The parking is located at the back of the house. We were able to park there the first night we arrived late. But after that, the neighbors blocked the entrance with their cars. We were lucky to find the last spot on the street to park. The next day when we went to park the car, they had a bounce house blocking the way. It was around 8:30 pm. The kids playing and screaming did not stop until 10pm on a Sunday night. We again were able to park on the street. This was my only complaint about this stay.

Great apartment, not best for children

This apartment was a great stay for my family of 4. All the bedrooms were spacious and comfortable, the kitchen was pristine with dishwasher and automated ice machine in fridge, in unit washer and drier was a huge plus, and the location was perfect for everything we wanted to do while in Boston. Unfortunately I would recommend another location if staying with small children. Our daughter is 8 months old at the time of booking and the upstairs neighbors played extremely loud music late into the early morning, they slammed doors, banging up and down the stairs all night, and there was a noticeable odor In the apartment at all hours. Overall this stay was incredible and I would stay again with just my adult family, but I would suggest another location if staying with younger children.
