As a single women traveling to watch my daughter at the Pan American Games (she stayed with the team elsewhere), I wanted to be in a very safe neighborhood, in a nice place, close to the pool, with a kitchen, laundry, etc, Barb’s place perfectly fit the bill. I stayed at Barb’s for 8 days. It was close to the Commonwealth Center (9-10 minutes even during rush hour), VERY safe neighborhood (I walked to the beach and around the neighborhood alone daily and never felt the slightest bit unsafe), wonderful and stylish and very clean accommodations, very quiet, convenient parking, and just a quick walk to the ocean—who could ask for more! The bed was delightful, the little extras of a flashlight for night beach walks and laundry soap for throwing in a quick laps were much appreciated! The tip to try the Beach House restaurant was excellent (went there twice). Can’t wait to visit your beautiful city again with the family—and happily stay at your place again!
