Conveniently INconvenient!
The Good:
Elisio has GREAT communication, is willing to resolve any discrepancies, and the location is relatively close to public transport.
THE BAD:
Well…
Lets start with the location, to be truthful it is in quite a rougher side of town (dont expect anything fancy is all).
Entry into the home is up TWO flights of narrow stairs, so it isn’t ADA compliant.
The bathroom wasn’t cleaned and had stains, and bodily fluid spills which was resolved IMMEDIATELY ( a plus). This is a SHARED living environment so not everyone keeps up their hygiene.
The bedroom is dimly lit, with a dirty rug which was NOT VACUUMED.
The person who cleans the apartment is very nice however a true cleaning service will increase the comfort level of guests and demonstrate a TRUE airbnb Boston experience.
Another issue, (yes there was more resulting in us actually canceling the remainder of our stay), another guest was SMOKING in the apartment which was discussed with Elisio about the written guidelines of a non-smoking environment. He quickly opened the doors and fumigated the apartment.
THERE ARE NO UTENSILS OR PLATEWARE.
BRING YOUR OWN!
LAUNDRY SERVICE IS DONE BY SOMEONE ELSE DOWNSTAIRS. Not having access to my personal clothes is not at all convenient or comfortable
