The house is perfect for families. We stayed with parents and a young kid, the house had everything we needed, fully functional kitchen and even some board games to entertain the kids. the backyard is small but really Charming. Proximity to downtown and the green line train was quiet convenient. The neighborhood looks a bit worn out, but we were mostly out during day and hardly had any issues. The backyard parking space looks small but it easily accommodated a minivan.
overall: highly recommend the place and no wonder Joyce is a super host!
