Safe neighborhood, house definitely needs some TLC. Was clean and comfortable but definitely needs some upgrades. Maybe a 3 star at the most.

Great location but noisy upstairs and no cable
The positive- location was good and our bed was comfortable. Negatives - for the price there was no cable tv, sparse kitchen; very noisy upstairs and to the side in building. The floor was badly scratched up and the furniture was uncomfortable. One bedroom’s box spring was not the right size for the mattress. There was zero art on the walls so it felt uninviting.

Graduation trip
The description of the property was accurate. Easy check-in, clean, had pretty much everything we needed for a 6 day stay. It was easy getting in and out of the property and on-site parking was a must for us. We drove back and forth from Cambridge into Boston and this location made that very convenient.

Perfect location
Such a great location - only a 10 minute walk to the Central Square T station on the redline. The property was clean, the neighborhood is quiet, and there are so many cute restaurants within a short walk. Jon is fantastic to deal with - responds quickly to any request/message. We had a great stay!

Great space and location for our family
The location was great with a 10-15 min walk to both the green and red lines and about 25 minutes to walk to Harvard Square. A Whole Foods was nearby to pick up food and a great bagel/pizza shop down the street. We felt safe walking around the neighborhood and letting our young adult kids walk about on their own. The condo had lots of space and a great kitchen to make meals. Would stay again.

Boston Trip
The property was very convenient for traveling into Boston for site seeing tours. We were able to uber into and out of Boston for a very reasonable price. Cheaper and easier than finding parking in Boston.
