Maverick is one of the few Boston airbnb hosts who is truthful about the experience and combines a very basic, clean and well-located accommodation with outstanding communication and proactive outreach. Central Boston's airbnb offering seems to be dominated by hosts with multiple holdings who do the bare minimum to keep their places clean or communicate. It's a very uninviting city on the airbnb front. There is also a real disappointment between what is shown and what you actually end up getting -- and yet the prices are no better than hotel costs in most cases. Maverick's place is very spartan. It is not fancy. But it is EXACTLY as they describe and they provide outstanding VALUE for the location, cleanliness and cost. This kind of expectation management is better than the majority of their competitors, such as the so-called 'queen' of boston's airbnbs who doesn't seem to care about dust and grime in her units. I think truthfulness is more important than all the faked photos in the world. As a frequent visitor to Boston and a high-use airbnb member (and superhost myself) Boston has turned me away from the airbnb platform. I tend to go with Sonder and Global Suites these days when in town rather than spend the same money on mostly subpar Boston airbnb experiences. Maverick, at the very least, seems to have filled a niche of value and good guest services/location that is very welcome. True, it is dorm-like. But super quiet as promised. Clean as promised. Spare, as promised. Super well-located as promised. I'll take truth any day over fiction.
