The apartment is great for a short stay if you want to explore Boston!
The host was very nice and quick to communicate, the apartment nice and clean!:)
Thoroughly enjoyed our stay, close to buses and the Green Line, supermarkets and places to eat. Communication with our hosts was fantastic. Clean, comfy and perfect for our needs.
We had a wonderful stay. The host was very accommodating. The property was extremely clean. The location is extremely close to the bus line which gets you to the subway orange line very quickly. I had never ridden a subway before and was able to figure out the system to this location with ease.The property was also extremely quiet. Nice selection of quick dining options close by.
Very cute, very clean and exactly as pictured. It was perfect for my week long stay when I needed to attend a professional work week in my companyâs Cambridge office. Very convenient location and very comfy.
The property is small but comfortable. Very clean. Timely communication with the owner. Property was as presented. Unexpected snacks and water were provided by the hosts. 2thumbs up.
We enjoyed our stay at Claudia and Timâs place. It is just like the pictures on the website. Our main complaint was the stairs down into the basement apartment. They are very narrow and there is no railing. (To be honest, thereâs really no room for one.) There is a landing that you step on and around the door to turn on a light switch to help you see to go down the stairs. If you come in at night like we usually did, you have to be careful you donât miss a step reaching around for the switch. (We started just leaving it on.) It is also hard to get up and down these stairs with luggage.
We were looking for a place to stay when we visit our granddaughter. Location was just what we were looking for. However, the beds were terrible. We only needed a place to sleep and one bed was a lumpy mattress and the other was a coil box spring covered with a thin mattress pad. The shower was all very small. We are not large people but there was no room to even turn around. It was about 2â by 3â.
We will not be returning on out next trip.
This apartment was a perfect home base for me for a stay centered in Somerville. Clean, quiet, walkable. The 89 bus is minutes away and gets you to Davis Square easily and from there you can go anywhere.
Arriving was difficult because it is a very dark street and hard to read or even see the house numbers. The light at the door of the apartment is motion sensor so the light was off when I arrived and I couldnât see where I was going. Had to call Claudia to find the door.
The television had terrible reception and I could only watch maybe three or four channels regularly and they donât pay for cable. Normally that is fine but the reception was terrible. Couldnât even watch the Celtics game.
Lots of stomping upstairs. At time it sounded like furniture was being dragged on the floor. It was loud and annoying during my stay.
Found two centipedes in the bathroom the third day I was there. Made sure I wore slippers in the apartment.
Lastly, need a car to get around to places to eat. Took a lot of Ubers.
Wouldnât stay here again.
Great location, adorable accommodations, and excellent hosts. I was in town visiting Boston and Salem with some friends and we couldn't have been happier with our stay!
Little bump in getting in unit, called owner and housekeeper came right over, unit very clean, well appointed, but not for tall or large people. Twin bed would have worked without footboard.
