Penny’s place deserves more than 5 stars. I have never had a more hospitable AirBNB hostess. The room is just as pictured, and the house is lovely - just a very homey place. Penny’s house is located in a great neighborhood of Boston. There are lots of restaurants and coffee spots, and Sam Adams Brewery is just a 15 minute walk. The neighborhood is very safe, and Jamaica Pond is beautiful - would definitely recommend stopping by there.
Penny had several nice touches that made our stay truly exceptional. She allowed us to use her back patio, where we got to sit and enjoy a nice glass of wine and a sunset. She also had coffee and lots of snacks - always appreciated. And there’s a great manual of all sorts of recommendations from things to do to places to eat and drink. And she checked in with us everyday to make sure everything was going well and we didn’t need anything.
The next time we are in Boston, we are definitely staying at Penny’s place again. It makes Boston feel a little more like home. :)
