Very good communication with Jenny who answered my questions. Only suggestion is that the bedrooms need dressers and waste cans.

Overall we were very pleased with our stay. The property is clean and well-kept and the host is very responsive. We were disappointed to discover that the listed cost of the house is for 5 guests. Beyond that, there is an additional fee per guest, which we didn’t think was very clear initially. There are also a large amount of rules regarding guests (even daytime guests) and cooking (there isn’t a normal sized pan to even cook some eggs in the morning) that didn’t heavily impact us, but we weren’t aware of the strict policies until days before the stay. I also think that it would be extremely tight to have 12 guests in the space. We had 7 adults and that was pushing it. The area seems relatively safe, but I wouldn’t feel comfortable walking alone at night. It was great to have reserved parking in the back and walking to the T was convenient.

The home appears freshly updated and is very clean. The kitchen is well equipped. A washer and dryer is available in the basement of the building.It is a short walk from the home to the MBTA station. Grocery stores are available nearby.The host, Jenny, responds quickly.
