Had a great stay. Was initially nervous as we didn’t get arrival information until very late the day of arrival, however communication was good after that. House fit out family well and location was great for our visit to Boston.

The house was perfect for hosting a gathering of friends - everyone had plenty of space, the rooms were clean, and Lucas was very responsive. The roads/parking was a little confusing to navigate for out-of-towners but that didn't affect the quality of our stay whatsoever. We would come back again!

Liked: Cleanliness, listing accuracy
Parking was convenient and the house was very roomy. However, in the evenings, mornings and off and on through the night, the heating system sounded like someone was hitting the pipes with a hammer. Our little dog was terrorized and our sleep was often disrupted. That was really our only complaint but it was a big one.

EZ Stay

Property was in average condition. Neither grill nor ice maker worked. Spartan interior decorating. Overgrown lawn. Lacks bathroom outlets. Lack of mirrors throughout house. House was very clean with comfortable seating.
