About this property

Entire place

You'll have the entire home to yourself and will only share it with other guests in your party.

Skylit Suite in Musical home

Lofty top floor with skylights. This guest suite has a queen bed, bathroom with shower and skylight, and its own entrance from the back yard of my house. Two flights of stairs. You can walk two short blocks to the Southwest Corridor where you'll find bike and running trails and the T transit. Discover the charms of Jamaica Plain: its locally-owned businesses, small breweries, cute coffee shops, art studios, and lots of nice outdoor space for recreation and relaxation.

Best suited for individuals and couples. If you register with three guests and let host know at the time of making your reservation, a good-quality air mattress can be provided.

Ask about the option (for additional fee) to use 7' Bechstein grand piano, as available.

Very clean and comfortable

This is a great find as long as you can get up two flights of fairly steep stairs. Spotless room and bath. Bed is very comfortable. Definitely recommend.

Cute & Comfy

Loved stay a few days in this cute and comfy spot. Instructions for getting in were perfect. The space was cozy and had everything I needed. The bathroom was much larger than I expected! I had dinner at two local spots that I could walk to (The Haven & Evergreen Cafe). Hopping on the metro was easy and a fairly quick ride into downtown Boston. I walked around during the day and night and always felt safe. Cute town! I would definitely stay here again!

Good bed killer stairs

The description and reviews were accurate. The place was very clean and the bed comfortable. It is a 3rd floor studio: the the stairs are a caution and the space fine for a couple (I am not sure is enough room for a third person sleeping on the floor). There is a microwave, a hot pot for boiling water and some dishes and flat ware - no really cooking possibilities. [I would add, I was a bit shocked at the final cost after a 100 cleaning fee and taxes....]

Clean, cozy and comfortable

This property had all the comforts of home. The neighborhood was quiet and safe, the place was spotless, the shower was hot, and it was a cozy place to crash after my travels during the day. There is a friendly coffee shop (The Vu) just around the corner and the property is only a few blocks from the Orange Line making it a convenient location. Highly recommend!

Quaint studio apartment

This space was quiet and comfortable with all amenities I needed. Very clean-comfortable bed-happy with locked outer door access to the entire house, plus dead bolt to this studio apartment. (Stairs leading to 3rd floor space are steep, if that is an issue.)

Lovely Attic Room for Two

The space was small but very nice. Lots of windows for light, modern bathroom, and a beautiful refinished wood floor that shows the square cut nails used to install it long ago. Good location to walk to food (0.7mi Jamaica Plain - many choices), coffee, beer (0.3mi Samuel Adams Brewery), and subway (.3mi Orange Line). We easily maneuvered w/o a car. Stairs to unit are beautiful wood, tight, and steep. Heater was OK but slow to warm the unit and had to be shut off when we were not there by house rule.

Nice updated apartment for 2

Apartment is nicely updated (e.g. bathroom), very nice skylights and hardwood floors, air conditioner works well for hot days as this was on 3rd floor. Conveniently located to the T subway stop and good local eateries. It’s a densely populated old city neighborhood so parking can be a challenge. We found a good spot and then walked everywhere (with a mile or two) (which we like to do). If you can’t do a lot of walking and want to drive places and find parking that would be a potential challenge. All amenities (teapot, microwave, small fridge) were clean and worked well. Nicely decorated place. Close to downtown Boston. Nice parks nearby.

Nice J.P. location, modest and clean

Rental was clean and convenient. Private entrance made coming and going easy. Independent temperature control for this unit was a great feature. Host was very quick to respond to communication during our stay. We had no internet (or t.v.) for our last 4 days so that was unfortunate and the host was not able to solve this as she was off site during that time.
