Hola!! Para ser mi primera visita a la cuidad de Boston, y primera ves es que uso este tipo de hospedaje, fue muy bueno, la familia Carney, muy agradable, un lugar muy tranquilo y hermoso, buen lugar para descansar y pasarla bien, muy contento con todo, lo recomiendo

Great little room was just what I needed. The bed was comfortable with fresh sheets, and I was provided with a clean robe, slippers and towel. The house is conveniently located about 5-6 minute walk from the Savin Hill T stop, which is only a few stops from the central downtown T stop. Barney, my host, was gracious and offered advice on local tourist spots. Most helpfully, he allowed me to drop my bags off early, and to leave them after checkout, so I didn't have to lug a suitcase around town all day. Overall, it was a pleasure to stay there and I highly recommend for a single person who needs a room in the Boston area!

This was such a fantastic place to stay!! The description was perfect! My sun porch room was so cute and comfortable! Very relaxing and lots of privacy! The muffins baked fresh each morning were delicious! There's a house keeper that cleans daily who is very nice. Barney and Mary were sweet and made my experience smooth from great directions to the house to communications via emails and phone calls. They were always available when I needed them! People who stayed with Mary and Barney while I was there were all kind, trusting, and fun to be around. I would highly recommend the place. I'm looking forward to returning soon!! Mary and Barney are such wonderful people with good hearts. I'm very thankful to have had them as hosts.

Best "airbnb" experience yet, in fact, one of the best experiences I've ever had in relation to accommodation.

My stay at the carney house was completely lovely. The house is absolutely gorgeous, and the room was perfect for what I needed on my last day in boston, which was a lot of sleep. There was chilled water waiting for me in the room upon arrival which was a nice touch, and lots of food is provided for breakfast which was great. Barney and I chatted before leaving and he was pleasant and warm. Great value and great stay.

Die Nachbarschaft war gut, die U-Bahn war leicht zu erreichen. Das Zimmer war sehr sauber und ordentlich und es gab einen frischen Bademantel und Slippers. Auch Badezimmer und Kueche waren sehr einladend. Der Kontakt zu den Gastgebern war sehr freundlich.

Impeccable hospitality: room better than description, robe and slippers for the bath, spotless space, tasteful and comfortable furnishings, quiet, coffee, fruit and oatmeal for breaky.

Enjoyed staying at this great and very clean house. Very Quite, neat and clean and near to the T. Barney is very helpful and responsive. He is very quick in his responses. Complete access to entire house including kitchen and living room. Highly recommend!

Me hicieron sentir muy bien, el orden es insuperable, el barrio es tal y como está descrito. Excelente opción

Todo perfecto

I thoroughly enjoyed my stay at the Carney house. The hosts are very hospitable. The location is conveniently close to the red line of the T train. Delicious, freshly baked muffins were always made for breakfast, accompanied by coffee. I would definitely recommend this place to anyone who visits Boston!

It was a good experience to stay at this place with 4 others airbnb's travelers, they stayed at 4 others rooms. It was like a hotel! The place was clean, silent, and well organized!

Hi all! It was a real pleasure to stay at the carney's family's place. They are really kind people who take good care of you during your whole stay. Their place is amazing and very convenient, only 6 minutes far from the subway station! I highly recommend these hosts! Yohan

Wonderful place! Clean and friendly. Bathrooms were extremely nice! Definitely recommend it.

Easy walk from the subway station. Quaint old Boston suburb and a short walk to the bay via the neighboring short street. Beautiful old Victorian but very well kept, especially the bathrooms. Room was just as pictured - bright and inviting. Plenty of space for my 17-yo son and I. Very well furnished with interesting furniture including a small rolltop desk. Lots of nice touches - luxurious towels, chocolates, nice lounge area with food and drink. Hosts were very warm, welcoming, and very much "pro" at hosting. This is as good as any regular B&B I've stayed at, and a great value.

My stay with the Carney Family was wonderful. It was great to have a "home" to come back to and everything was as described and shown in the pictures. I was there for a conference in Boston and the proximity to the subway made it easy to get to center city. It was also nice to see other travelers staying at the Carney's, and it was easy to come and go. If I go back to Boston, I would look them up again!

buen lugar, buen desayuno, limpio.

Nuestra estadía en Barney's Master Room fue excelente, la casa acogedora, así como los anfitriones. Bonito barrio y cerca del metro. Volveríamos a alojarnos ahí.

We thank Barney, Mary and the rest of the Carney Family very much for the perfect time we had in Boston and at their house. The house is very nice and spacious and the Master Bedroom was perfect for the three of us. Everything was very clean and Barney's coffee is one of the best we have tasted so far. It made our mornings. Also very nice is the balcony of the house where you can enjoy the view of the garden and the little bay in the back of the house. The beachwalk was very nice for an evening walk. The connection to the centre of Boston and Cambridge is very easy by the red line (subway). And on top of all, we felt very welcome and were very happy to meet the members of the family. Thank you for all the advice you gave us for our visits to Boston and for everything else! We can recommend this air bnb 100%.

Mary and Barney are very nice and accommodating. My friend and I had a short stay, but we feel being at home while staying at their place. They gave out very detailed parking directions and check in details. We forgot to bring toothpaste and they're nice to borrow us some. Overall very nice stay.

I enjoyed my stay in Barney and Mary's beautiful house. The neighborhood is a such safe and quiet area. And a cozy beach just near by the house. Barney and Mary served really nice bed, good muffins, fresh fruits and coffee everyday, and low-fat yogurt as well! I believe this is the most comfortable trip that I ever had. Thank you very much!

We had a great time at Barney's home. The room is very spacious and bright, living room is nice and kitchen has everything we needed. We could even print out Redsox baseball game tickets using a computer and a printer in the living room. Breakfast is provided for the guests and Barney bakes fresh muffins everyday. Barney gave us really good suggestions on where to see, eat, etc. We enjoyed a lot our stay in Boston.

The Carney's have a beautiful old home in a quiet residential neighborhood. They are great communicators and made us feel welcome on our arrival as well as being available to us (but not intrusive) if we had any questions. The home is very clean and convenient to the "T" subway system. We walked to the JFK Library around Dorchester Bay and used the cab they recommended to get to the airport early in the morning. They have incorporated many processes to make their guests visits work seamlessly and we thoroughly enjoyed it. Thank you Mary and Barney.

Excellent accommodations, and Mary and Barney were very kind and helpful to us. I'd gladly stay there again!

Muy buena ubicación, la casa impecable, las sabanas recién cambiadas, la toalla impecable. Mary es una muy buena anfitriona y me resolvió todas las dudas que tenia sobre boston y transporte.

Todo perfecto super recomendable

Comunicación fluida, siempre en contacto, fácil acceso a la habitación, baño muy limpio como de hotel, próximo a metro directo a los puntos turísticos.

La casa es muy bonita, el anfitrión es muy amable y las habitaciones están cómodas y súper limpias. Pensamos que sería un problema el baño compartido, pero no lo fue en lo absoluto. Son dos baños grandes (y muy lindos decorados). Nuestra visita a Boston fue por el maratón, en una temporada donde los precios de alojamiento suben muchísimo. La relación calidad precio de este lugar es muy buena, sin embargo es importante que consideres que está a unos 30 minutos del centro de la ciudad. No tuvimos ningún problema en transportarnos, sólo el día del maratón es importante considerarlo. Es un alojamiento muy lindo para visitar Boston y regresar a dormir sin bullicio.

The listing was spot on, very happy with our choice of Airbnb in Boston.

I had such a lovely time during my 2-night stay with the Carney Family. They are very warm, welcoming and have an ABSOLUTELY wonderful and extremely well decorated house, very clean, great bathroom, yummy muffins (just looved them), cereals and coffee for breakfast. It was the best choice I could make for my trip to Boston. I can recommend everybody to stay with them…this place is filled with love!!!! What a wonderful experience. ... AND Barney, THANKS AGAIN for giving me a ride ... chatting with you at 5 a.m. in the morning was great fun and a good start into the day ;)) DANKE ;)

We enjoyed our stay at the Carney's. Thank you for the hospitality, our son enjoyed playing the baby grand piano. Everything is as described, only a few minutes to the subway, amazing water view and quiet neighborhood. We definitely are coming back!

DIrections to the home and for self check-in were clear. The accomodations were great, lots of nice amenities as in a nice hotel, including warm muffins every morning.

We enjoyed our short stay in this lovely wooden home designed and built by Sharon and Rick. Learning gems about the area's history and ecology from Rick over breakfast is what makes airbnb so special. The room was spacious and airy. The bathroom was clean and modern with a spacious shower. Thank you for sharing your home with us!

Sharon and Rick greeted us warmly. Beautiful home with very comfy bed. I would highly recommend.

During our recent stay, Sharon and Rick provided great accommodations that were very comfortable. The features of their beautiful and fascinating post and beam home create the feeling of staying in an expensive lodge rather than in someone's home. A delicious, and beautifully presented breakfast on the deck served as a wonderful way to start our day. We stayed at BnBs in Ireland this spring and this ranked with the best of them in terms of comfort, convenience and wonderful hosts. We will stay here again.

Sharon and Rick were fantastic hosts. They were super responsive to our very last minute request (which we submitted the night before we wanted to travel). They were very accommodating and gave us great suggestions about where to eat and which beaches to visit. We had a very comfortable room with a nice cross breeze. Sharon even made us French toast with fresh fruit and greek yogurt (Chobani!) in the morning. Overall, a fantastic stay!

I just stayed one evening with Sharon & Rick, but really had a delightful visit. The home and amenities are just as advertised. In fact I would say that the home is even larger and more spacious than the pictures indicate. The bed and sheets are incredibly comfortable, and the space private and quiet. We had a wonderful conversation from the moment I arrived until we all retired for the evening. I would highly recommend a stay at their lovely home and I hope to stay there again sometime.

Lovely spot. Rowley is all rolling hills, stone fences and flowers. About 1 hour drive from Boston Logon staying with Sharon and Rick was a great start to our road trip to Maine. Upon arrival Rick directed us to the beach and a great lobster roll spot, reminding us to stroll thru the very cute town of Newburyport. All was sublime. I especially enjoyed breakfast on the deck. My only regret is not staying longer.

My boyfriend and I had a great stay with Sharon & Rick! The place is exactly as appears in photos. It's a great location to visit Plum Island and they let us use their season pass. I don't have anything new to add to what other reviewers have said. The private large bathroom was nice, as well as the breakfast they provided with juicy local peaches and a warm quiche.

Sharon and Rick are wonderful hosts. I felt welcomed the minute I set foot in their beautiful house. They were very friendly and helpful. The room was very nice, clean and cosy and the bed very comfortable. Everything was as described. I had a very good night sleep, and was offered a delicious breakfast in the morning. I highly recommend staying at Sharon and Rick's when visiting the Boston area.

Muchas gracias por la hospitalidad

La experiencia en casa de jenny ha estado por encima incluso de sus extraordinarios comentarios en airbnb. No podiamos imaginar una casa asi, es fantantica, limpia, ordenada, muy bien decorada, espaciosa. Y Jenny como anfitriona ha sido aun mejor, transmitiendo la confianza y cercania necesaria para hacerte sentir como en tu propia casa. Y no es una frase hecha. Se ha preocupado de facilitarnos las cosas desde antes incluso de llegar y hasta despues de marcharnos. Y el desayuno... Fantastico. La mejor forma de empezar el dia. La casa esta en un barrio residencial muy agradable, con muchos restaurantes, muy cerca del MIT y del metro, con una parada a 5 minutes y otra a unos 10-15 minutos,aunque tambien se puede ir andando: beacon hill esta a unos 20 minutos andando. Repetiremos, sin duda.

This Air BnB is very comfortable and Jenny is a super hostess. She has a sweet cat and dog and her decor is elegant, clean and personal. It is in a great location; quiet at night. I would recommend it for a very enjoyable stay in Cambridge.

Very well kept house in a residential setting. I was greeted at the door by a very friendly (not jumpy) dog. The cat was also friendly and neither were intrusive. Bathroom is very clean and the house is very quiet. Jenny is an awesome host.

I had the wonderful opportunity to meet Jenny and stay in her beautiful home for a week while visiting Boston. This was my first Airbnb experience and it was fantastic! For the past two years, I have been travelling to Boston twice a year for a low-residency master’s program and stayed in a hotel. I wanted to experience Boston as a Bostonian, thus I decided to try Airbnb for this past visit and requested to stay at Jenny’s. Jenny was very accommodating; she provided great instructions on how to access her home and what to do once I arrived. She responded to my messages promptly when I was travelling after having several delays. I let myself in and I was greeted by the sweetest dog ever Skipper and Oggi the cat. Skipper and I built a bond, I’m a dog lover, if you are not, he will happily and quietly keep to himself and Oggi, as well. I didn’t get a chance to meet Jenny until the second evening; she left clear instructions on how to access the internet, use the TV, a list of nearby restaurants, and how to get around the kitchen. She provided great coffee and offered other breakfast items in the morning. Jenny went out of her way to accommodate my special dietary needs. She was conscientious and asked if she could purchase anything specific for breakfast. I did not see Jenny on most days; however, over the weekend we had the chance to visit. Jenny is very discreet and not at all intrusive. Accommodations: I stayed in the second floor bedroom with a private bathroom (not ensuite) but right next to the bedroom. Luggage must be carried up one floor - it was not difficult. Both the bedroom and bathroom were very clean – the whole house is clean. The accommodations were very comfortable; the bed was especially comfortable with crisp, clean sheets! Two big windows in the bedroom provided sunlight and fresh air. A large living room (on the same floor as the bedroom) provided a calm working space (Skipper was happy to join me when invited and quietly slept on the sofa next to me). There is a bright sitting area adjacent to the kitchen; a great spot to enjoy coffee in the morning with access to a small garden below. Location: Jenny’s home is a short (safe) walk (5-7 mins) to the Green T Line at Lechmere; I took the T daily at all hours, even very late at night without any problems. I walked to the Red T Line at Kendall/MIT (10 min walk) when heading to the airport - via South Station and SL1 Rapid Bus Transit. Jenny’s home is also a 5 minute walk (2 blocks) from the CambridgeSide Galleria mall, a great place for a quick bite and where you’ll find a CVS drugstore for odds and ends. Overall, my experience staying at Jenny’s was ‘home-away-from-home’ and I will certainly book to stay with her again in the...

Great place to stay, Jenny is a great host.

Jenny's house is beautiful, the room was perfect and comes with a private bathroom. Jenny was not there during my stay but her neighbor was around and made sure everything was going well. I highly recommend her place!

Great place to stay! Swank, clean, safe and convenient. I basically had a whole floor to myself! Jenny's also really nice and chill.

El barrio seguro y muy bien ubicado con fácil acceso al trasporte público y comercio cerca. Bryan y Marisa aon personaa muy validas y amables. Me hucieron sentir como en casa. Fue mi primera experiencia con Airbnb y sobrepaso mis expectativas muy ppositivamente!

I had a great and easy stay! Marisa and Bryan left a really nice basket with treats in my room and everything about getting in was very clear and easy. Hopefully I'll get to stay with you next time I'm in Cambridge. Thanks!

This was my first experience with Air Bnb, and I could go on and on about how wonderful Marisa and Bryan are. From a gracious welcome, to maps and suggestions, to directions, a much needed beverage after a cross country flight. They were very responsive during booking, and throughout the trip. The accommodations were just as advertised, if not better. Most importantly was the genuine spirit of hospitality that was tangible throughout my stay! All on top of a truly affordable rate. I couldn't recommend them more.

Marisa and Bryan have an amazing place. The bar and outdoor balcony were absolutely beautiful. My favourite part was the assigning of the bedrooms with cute personal letters and a place to put my things in the washroom. They have a great coffee machine, and plenty of kitchen facilities and I felt instantly at home. I would recommend this apartment anytime to anyone. Great place. Claire.

The listing was cery accurate and had great pictures. The room itself was clean and very comfortable. Will definable try to stay here again when I'm in the area next time

Bryan and Marisa were great hosts, and I enjoyed the stay. There is also plenty to do (and public transit) nearby at Davis Square. :)

Bryan & Marisa are to sort of AirBnB host that AirBnB is founded on. They live in the property, but make you feel entirely at home and

I arrived pretty late (11pm), but Marisa was very accommodating. This was my first experience with Airbnb, and it was wonderful. The super cute apartment was in a safe neighborhood walking distance to a train stop that got me to my teacher conference in 4 stops. I loved the neighborhood and wished I had more time to hang out! Thanks so much Bryan and Marisa!

We had a wonderful stay in Marblehead. Elizabeth is a great host who responded promptly to all our questions. The house is marvelous with all comfort you might wish for and a lovely beach close by. Marblehead is an ideal location to explore the beautiful North Boston area. Thanks again to Elizabeth for hosting us!

Elisabeth was a joy to deal with. Very accommodating! Would surely visit again.

Everything was great. We hope the next time we are in the area we will have so good of an experience again.

Wir hatten eine traumhafte Woche in Marblehead! Die Lage des Hauses absolut perfekt, die Einrichtung sehr geschmackvoll und das Haus bietet sehr viel Platz! In 5 Minuten ist man zu Fuss am Strand! Rundherum ein Haus was man empfehlen muss!!! Herzlichen Dank Elisabeth!!! Wenn unsere Pläne wieder in Richtung Boston gehen, werden wir ganz bestimmt wieder nach Marblehead kommen!!!! Beste Grüße aus Deutschland Gabriela and family

This home was a perfect home base for my family to stay in the week prior to my sister's wedding. The beds were comfortable and the kitchen was fully stocked with good pots and utensils to allow someone to easily cook. We really enjoyed our stay.

Séjour mémorable à Marblehead. Jolie et pittoresque ville aux maisons ancestrales et colorées. La résidence louée sur la rue Pierce était tout simplement PARFAITE. Nous y avons séjourné du 15 au 22 août...période idéale pour cette région du Massachusetts afin de bénéficier d'un océan un peu plus chaud...c'est à dire se rapprochant du 68•F :) La maison est à environ 400/500m de la plage locale. Donc très facile de s'y rendre à pied (5min) avec l'attirail nécessaire, soit les chaises, parasol, serviettes et lunch. La petite ville est à peine à 15 minutes à pied. On y retrouve tout plein de boutiques sympa, une poissonnerie et autres spots incontournables. Cependant, côté épicerie il y a beaucoup à faire! Le Crosby's de la rue Washington est franchement (URL HIDDEN) les prix sont exorbitants! Je conseille fortement de faire vos achats alimentaires ailleurs...vous sauverez aisément de 18 à 22% sur votre note finale! La plage municipale, la plus proche de la maison, nous a entièrement satisfaits. Il y a une section enrochée très tranquille...mais "intense" pour les pieds sensibles. Et juste à côté, il y a la section sablonneuse, plus achalandée avec les aménagements essentiels: douche post baignade et sable, jeux pour enfants, casse-croûte; elle est surveillée par des sauveteurs...ce qui n'est pas le cas de l'autre.

A lovely house, situated in the beautiful town of Marblehead. Ideally located for beaches, Boston. and visiting the many other beautiful towns further up the coast. We also went whale-watching from Gloucester. The house was beautifully furnished and very comfortable. The whole family enjoyed the stay. We would definitely choose this house again if we were visiting the area.

This property was perfect for our family. It was very clean and has every convenience of home. We were vacationing 3 adult children and there was plenty of room. It is located in a beautiful neighborhood that winds through to the beach. The beach is a family beach with a playground, concessions and bathrooms! Boston is about 40 minutes south. We went whale watching in Gloucester, which is about 30 minutes north. Marblehead is a quaint, quiet community. The hosts are available and accommodating. I would highly recommend this propery.

Casa perfecta. Barrio precioso, tranquilo y relativamente cerca del centro de Boston en autobus. Limpio y acogedor, muy bien equipado. Cama comoda y mejorable el sofa cama donde durmiron nuestros hijos. Comunicación facil, volveriamos sin pensarlo.

Terrific stay! A well appointed, spacious apartment that is exactly as described. An ideal location in which to see all of the Boston sites on foot and/or via the train. Grocery and other stores are within walking distance, as are a variety of pubs and restaurants. Would highly recommend a morning trip to the Grasshopper Cafe which is literally right around the corner. Additionally, the hosts are fully available without being intrusive. This flat is totally worth consideration!!

Thank you Marie & Gerard!! What a charming apartment in a wonderful neighborhood! The home is so nicely decorated and comfortable. Lots of natural light and the colors chosen make for a cheery atmosphere.

Great location. Comfortable and very rasonably priced. Boston can be very expensive.

We had a fantastic stay at Gerard and Marie's. the apartment is vey comfortable and located in a lovely part of Charlestown close to Bunker Hill. For anyone visiting a beer in the Warren Tavern is a must! Gerard and Marie went out of their way to make us feel welcome and to assist us in any way they could. Marie even drove my wife to the airport to help find our hire car - so nice! We can't recommend this apartment enough and will definitely stay again if visiting Boston. Many thanks Gerard and Marie!

Gerard and Marie's place in Charlestown was great. Located in a safe and very comfortable neighbourhood, it was easy to walk anywhere! I didn't get a chance to meet them, but everything was set up perfectly for us. When I did have questions, they were quick to reply online. I highly recommend this place if anyone is looking to stay in the heart of Boston!

What a fantastic place, it truly feels like you are part of Boston. The apartment, the building, neighbourhood and location. Marie and Gerard's place is great!

Really enjoyed our stay in Charlestown. The apartment was spacious, and had everything we needed and more. It was very comfortable. The bed was superb. The apartment is on a very quiet street, and two mins walk to main bus route to city. We also walked to City, yo do the tourist walk. Also a couple of blocks from good supermarket and nice casual eating places. Gerad was very hospitable and friendly. Gave us some great ideas for local sightseeing and further afield.

Un lugar muy lindo para hospedarse en esta hermosa ciudad!! El espacio es tal cual como se muestra en las fotos. Nos encanto!

La descripción de la habitación y la casa fueron exactas, así como las indicaciones para llegar a la casa y realizar el check-in. El día de mi llegada Marcela se encontraba haciendo mejoras a la fachada de la casa y aun así me ayudo a subir mi maleta (pesada) hasta el 3 piso! Sin duda reservaría nuevamente en esta Guest House!

Nada coordial marcela. Se limito a decir que en internet tenia la informacion del lugar.. demasiado ruido en las habitaciones y el cuarto con mal olor.

Great stay at Marcelas guest house. The room was perfect, and the place was neat and clean as pictured. Marcela was also very accommodating of my check-in schedule. I hope next time I am in town to come back.

The booking went very smoothly and Marcela is very friendly and quick to respond to any questions. The self check-in was very handy and means you don't have to worry about coordinating an exact arrival time. The house is an easy 10 minute walk from Central Square, a 20-25 minute walk from Harvard Square, and is also accessible via bus that runs along Broadway Street which is less than a block away. I had the small room at the top which is perfect for one person. The house is old so has creaky floorboards but the other guests were very quiet while I was there so it was a peaceful stay. I'd suggest that guests with heavy luggage or mobility issues not book the rooms on the top (3rd) floor as the staircase is rather steep and narrow. For me though, it was a perfect place to stay and I'll definitely re-book with Marcela when I'm back in Cambridge!

I spent one night in Marcela's house, The room was perfect for one night, clean, minimal decoration but cute, well located in Cambridge... Didn't have the chance to meet Marcela but she gave me all the informations to make my arrival easier. I will definitely recommend this place!

Simple single room in a nice neighborhood with lots of close restaurants. Was an easy walk to Cambridge where I was attending a course. Internet was slow/spotty although I wasn't around enough for this to be a major issue.

Marcela was a very good host, responsive and kind. She would resolve any minor issue arising immediately. The instructions were very helpful and communication was smooth. The flat itself was as expected, nice, tidy with a huge kitchen (and breakfast provided by the host). The room was spacious and clean. The location of the house was excellent. In sum, I enjoyed my stay and I would definitely recommend.

Una casa muy acogedora, muy cerca (a menos de 10 minutos andando) de la parada de metro donde se coge el bus shuttle (gratis, por cierto) que va al aeropuerto. La habitación estaba limpia, con su neverita, calentita, espaciosa y además en el piso de abajo, con lo que teníamos más intimidad. Izzy no estaba pero nos facilitó toda la información para entrar sin problemas. Esos días tenía 3 habitaciones más ocupadas con otros huéspedes, así que la única pega es que como hay un solo baño, había cola para ducharse a primera hora de la mañana. Todo lo demás, genial!

Muy buena ubicación si se viene desde el aeropuerto, muy cerca al centro, excelente limpieza, es una experiencia de hotel.

Muy buena ubicación, limpia me encantoo

Todo perfecto y acorde a lo que pactamos. Izzy nos explicó a la perfección como llegar a su casa y estaba el cuarto listo cuando llegamos. Buena experiencia y muy recomendable la casa!!

Me gustó mucho regresare

Communication with Islam and his brother was good. However, we arrived at their house and the toilet was completely plugged up and full of excrements. At this point, we were totally disgusted. We went out to town, which by train takes about 15mn plus 10mn walk to the station. We managed to speak with Islam brother. He fixed the problem when we came back by 4pm. The house is basic with thin walls and the bedrooms are minimum comfort. We were supposed to be on the basement, which I really don't recommend. Bad smell and the bed is for one person rather than two. We stayed in the upper room, as we though we were there. Nobody in the house except from one guest staying also in the upper level. Islam sent us an email during our stay, which we couldn't see as we didn't have a computer with us or the use of our smartphone. However, he told us to stay in the basement while no booking was made for the upper room. Not sure why he wanted us to stay in the basement where the room and bed were very basic, when he could have told us to stay in the room upstairs! The fact that the owner wasn't there made it a strange feeling. The back door in the kitchen were not locked at all, while our luggage was in the house. We didn't got told at all. We had to put a bar across to kinda off close the sliding door but felt very unsafe as anybody could have walking in easily or made their way in. All in all, things went fine by the end but we definitely not recommend the place unless the owner is there. If you are looking for a cheap place to stay and don't mind of those inconvenience, then you will like it. A part from that Boston is a great city and we had fun!

We had a great Time in Boston! We really enjoyed our stay at Izzys Place. The room was clean and the bed comfortable. There is only one bathroom in the house, but some how the bath wasnt usually blocked. We never had to wait long. You only Need About 5 Minutes to the t-station and only 3 Station to downtown, which was very nice. We can recommend izzys Place - thank for everything. Nora & Hannah

It was a pleasant stay although we didn't meet personally. The room was comfortable, the metro station is close and it is really fast to get into Boston so al together we had a great time there.

Buen apto. Bien ubicado. James responsable

Todo bien, muy buen lugar

Fue genial, el apartamento es muy lindo, ordenado y limpio. Gene es un gran anfitrión, no tengo ninguna queja, estuvo siempre accesible. El sector es muy acogedor y tiene muchos buenos restaurantes cerca, está muy accesible. Mi experiencia fue excelente.

La descripcion del anuncio era correcta, el departamento muy comodo, con muy buena locacion y buen gusto.

James' place was fantastic in every regard: The check-in process was simple. James sent us step-by-step instructions for check-in that were concise and easy to follow. The apartment was clean and welcoming and spacious. It was very comfortable. The location was outstanding. It was very nice to be able to basically walk wherever we wanted whenever we wanted. Parking was simple. We paid a $35 flat rate (there was some kind of event parking that nite for something somewhere) for over 24 hours which seemed pretty good to me. The garage I parked in was at the intersection of Causeway and Prince and was only a short walk (five or so minutes) to James'. Tl;dr: Stay at James' place, you won't regret it.

L'interno dell'appartamento è molto pulito, dalla cucina al bagno tutto è tenuto bene ed in ottime condizioni. Nella camera da letto è presente un letto queen size e nella sala è presente un divano-letto adatto a una persona. James è molto preciso in tutte le comunicazioni e risponde velocemente ai messaggi. L'appartamento è situato in una piccola palazzina nel quartiere di Little Italy, zona molto trafficata, frequentata e piena di ristoranti italiani.

This was my first air bnb experience and it was great. Gene was easy to work with and very helpful. The apartment was exactly as advertised - clean modern and quiet in the heart of the North end. Great place to stay for a Boston visit.

James's place was great for my needs! When I travel I don't spend much time in the places I stay at... I usually only sleep there & shower there. The place was a lot smaller than what the pictures made it look, which didn't bother me because I was rarely in the apartment. Communication with James was great. Meaning his instructions were explicitly clear & easy to follow, so I didn't have to reach out to him for anything. Made the experience stress free in & out. The apartment was very clean. No issues there. The kitchen was small, with zero prep space, which might bother you if you plan on cooking a meal in the apartment, but didn't bother me because I was more interested in tasting the flavors of the city. Especially in the neighborhood because of the apartment's ideal location. James's place was perfect for (1) person & for my needs. I would definitely stay there again.

I had a great experience with Bryan and Marissa! The neighborhood was great; a short walk to Harvard made browsing around the campus a breeze. Marissa was very helpful and such a nice person. She gave a great restaurant recommendation to "The Painted Burro" in nearby Somerville, where I enjoyed one of the most wonderful meals I have ever had. The Burro had great food and drink, plus a service staff that went way beyond expectations. Also had great conversation with a fellow guest who was staying during her Boston stop in a national touring company of a Broadway show. My stay was truly a pleasure!

Brian is very easy going person, we had a good time during our trip. The place is original with the bar, the artist's painting, etc. It's also a charming and calm quarter. Thank you for everything and to let us the couch during the canadian hockey game! You are also welcome at our place in Chambly if you want! Priscilla et Marc-André

awesome hosts! we felt very comfortable at marisa and bryan! Perfect stay in Boston!

Awesome!! Great location with amazing hosts!!

Fantastic first experience of air bnb! Bryan and Marisa were lovely hosts and we really appreciated all the extras! Comfy beds, great flat and excellent location for getting into and around Boston. Parking was an added bonus! Highly recommended. Thanks so so much :-)

Attended a conference at Harvard the weekend of April 3rd and this was the perfect place for a college student budget. I was visiting Boston/Cambridge for the first time and everything was conveniently located. The Davis Metro station is within walking distance. Very spacious/comfortable room and I would definitely book with Bryan and Marisa again!

Bryan was an amazing and super nice host. He helped us with the luggage and showed us around. Also there were two beds which was a boost.

Très bonne organisation de Marisa pour notre arrivée dans ce chouette appartement qui est très bien placé pour profiter de Boston et faire un tour a Harvard a pied. Idéal surtout si on vient en voiture puisqu'on peut se garer dans les environs. Marisa a su nous donner tous les renseignements nécessaires et être a notre ecote

El barrio es bueno. El edificio se encuentra a dos cuadras del subte. La cama es confortable. Las fotos muestran que es un departamento simple pero el estado de mantenimiento no coincide con las fotos. Se encuentra mas deteriorado. La limpieza no estuvo bien hecha, especialmente la cocina y el baño. El lugar donde colgar ropa en perchas, lleno de alfombras, cortinas y otros elementos en desuso. En el baño no hay ni un solo perchero donde colgar las toallas. No hay cafetera ni ningun elemento para hacer cafe. La heladera no estaba limpia, estaba llena de alimentos en uso. La cerradura de entrada al edificio se trababa con frecuencia. Adriana y Nicolas

Honestamente, tengo que comentar que lo mejor de la casa la ubicación y el wifi, (fantástico), lo que no es comprensible es el sistema complicado de entrada al apartamento, siguiendo unas indicaciones que ya le gustaría a hitchcock haber incorporado a alguna de sus películas, mandando las instrucciones por correo electrónico en el último momento, etc. Conseguimos la llave gracias a un amigo local que nos ayudo a descifrar las instrucciones, sino probablemente hubiésemos tenido que buscar un hotel. Dentro del apartamento nos encontramos con un refrigerador apagado y al abrirlo tenía comida en descomposición (se quedó cerrado toda la estancia), por consiguiente nos obligó a efectuar mas gastos imprevistos desayunos y cenas, la cama supletoria era un colchón en el suelo y además el polvo creo que no se había limpiado en tiempo. La verdad es con toda seguridad no lo volvére a contratar y por supuesto dudo que se lo recomiende a nadie. Saludos

Un apartamento sencillo pero ideal para un viaje de turismo, muy comodo para dormir y muy bien ubicado. Si se desea cocinar en el apartamento la cocina es muy pequeña, pero la habitacion y el baño son muy comodos. El sistema para obtener las llaves no es muy amigable en principio pero creeria que se soluciona con una instruccion mas directa y clara. Pasamos muy rico y es un lugar que recomendaria y volveria. Excelente relacion costo beneficio

Tuvimos un problema con el ingreso a la casa que se nos retraso bastante. Entrábamos a las 12 y al final terminamos entrando a las 3 30 y perdiendo un día completo de recorrido ya que a las 4 ya se hace de noche; cuando pedimos alguna solución con el tema de las maletas no pudo ayudarnos. La casa es muy linda y la ubicación perfecta, Boston es una hermosa ciudad.

Todo muy bien. Sean fue muy amable con nosotros. El departamento está muy bien ubicado y para una estadía corta en Boston es perfecto!

El barrio es tranquilo. A 2 cuadras del subte. La cama comoda. El departamento es sencillo pero las fotos no son actuales. Esta mas deteriorado de lo que se muestra. No estaba limpio. Especialmente cocina y baño. Habia basura en bajomesada, la heladera con muchos alimentos en uso. El lugar donde colgar la ropa en perchas tenia alfombras, cortinas y otros elementos en desuso, muy descuidado. Ningun perchero en el baño, no habia donde colgar las toallas. No hay cafetera ni ningun elemento para colar cafe o te.

Boston es mucho mas de lo esperado. El lugar es comodo. Sean es divertido

Estuvo correcto, la limpieza podría mejorar bastante y hacía mucho calor

Mi experiencia fue formidable! Greta es una gran anfitriona y nos sentimos muy libres en el dormitorio y en la propiedad, el vecindario es tranquilo y se puede caminar desde donde te deja el bus, son 15-20 min caminando

Gerta is a great host. I very much enjoyed the accommodations and the location. A nice neighborhood with a short walk to the bay. Boston it accessible by a bus (pretty much across the street) which takes you to the MBTA Blue Line and right into Downtown Boston. So you have access to the City but the enjoyment of a nice quiet neighborhood. I'll be back. I had a large room with a comfortable bed and a nice clean bathroom. The kitchen was good and a very nice living area.

-great location for beach visit -Private bathroom with shower -affordable -no ceiling light -no outlets in bedroom (we found power strip under the bed our last day) -parking pass is so easy to use

It was amazing house. The room is exactly same as the picture. Warm and cozy, clean and Gerta was so kind. I want to be here again!

Gerta was very friendly and certainly made me feel welcomed in her home. The room + private bath was perfect for my needs and the location worked out great. I opted to walk the 1.2 miles from the subway to the house when I traveled back and forth from Boston. Gerta shared information regarding the bus and taxi services but I found the walk which goes through cute neighborhoods and along the water was more ideal. The subway was super easy to navigate and getting to and from Boston was a easy.

This was our first airbnb experience and i most certainly enjoyed my stay. Greta is a very nice and welcoming host. The House is beautiful and the room I stayed in was very big and clean. For a visit to Boston, this place is definitely an amazing place to stay!

Made very welcome by Gerta. We had the room as shown with our own bathroom and the use of kitchen and lounge if wanted. By far our best Airbnb experience so far. Gerta was very helpful with suggestions in places to eat and how to get in and out of the city.

Gerta was just wonderful! so easy and relaxed. We had both arrived to Boston from other sides of the world and it was amazing to be in such a clean and friendly environment. Gerta and her family are very aware of giving guests their space, but so helpful too. and the bathroom was great! Would definitely stay again. Olivia and Christian, New Zealand

I was in Salem for a road race and Peter's place was the perfect place to stay! It was exactly as pictured, and had everything I needed. The wine bottle that he left for me upon arrival was a sweet touch. Fortunately the apartment was very easy to find and getting the keys was super simple. It was perfectly situated for myself and my needs, but I could also see it being ideal for just about anyone who wants to stay in the center of Salem. We walked to the museum and Notch brewery post race. If I were coming back for Halloween, I would definitely stay here and easy to walk to from the commuter rail. Thanks Peter!!

Where do I begin!!! This apartment is one of the best Airbnb experiences I have ever had. Peter was very easy to communicate with, and the check-in process was a breeze. The apartment was exactly as expected, clean, quiet, and the LOCATION is amazing. It's right in the center of Salem, which means it's only a few feet from all the restaurants and attractions. My wife and I slept incredibly well in one of the more comfortable beds I have ever laid down on. We took the commuter rail from Boston, and didn't even need a car the whole time we were in Salem. There are plenty of Ubers around if you need to go somewhere further than walking distance. If you're flying into town I would recommend this approach, or just take an Uber from Logan. I would HIGHLY recommend Pete's place, and look forward to staying here again!!

I had to book something for a wedding I was attending in Salem, and Peter's apartment could not have been more perfect. I got in late, but finding the keys and the apartment was not an issue at all. Peter communicated all the details very clearly, and even provided tips on where I could grab a late bite. Everything was extremely clean, and the bed was incredibly comfortable. The location was PERFECT. I could walk to everything while other guests were staying at hotels two towns away. I hope there are more Salem weddings in my future, because I would absolutely love to stay here again!!

Recomendable. Lo único la distancia del centro.

La experiencia fue muy positiva: Peter nos acogió muy educadamente en su bonita casa. Aunque está un poco lejos de la parada de metro, sin duda, lo recomendamos.

I needed a place to stay overnight to catch a flight at 6am on the following morning, so I just spent a few hours in the area. There were some nice bars and restaurants in the neighborhood, which seemed safe. The host was out that evening, so I didn't meet him. He provided all instructions I needed and promptly replied to my text message.

Had a great stay and the house is amazing. Walkable to Cambridge and Harvard. The neighbour hood is really nice and some excellent shops and restaurants around. Peter is a very hospitable host and had the pleasure of hearing him playing the piano the first night!

Peter was a great host and provided us with a lot of information about the area!

Peter is very welcoming and helpful. The house is very comfortable and Peter made our stay very enjoyable!

The host, Peter is extremely gentle and warm-hearted person. The house is exactly same with picture. Very beautiful and very cozy. One minor weak point is linked bus line. But you are healthy or hoping look around that'll be okay! Thanks!!

Amazing place! Peter was extremely helpful and hospitable and the house itself is elegant and comfortable. I wish I could have stayed longer! Peter has an extensive collection of books and the house has many great places to relax and read away the afternoon. Highly recommended!
