This was my first air bnb experience. Maybe I should have set lower expectations or went in with more of an open mind, but this experience was not what I expected. The first issue I had was that the room we stayed in was not the same room that was advertised in the pictures. The room itself was not in great condition either. There were 3 chairs and a coffee table in the room, all of which were broken with wobbly legs that felt like they were going to buckle by just sitting on them. The top bunk had a huge stain in it and 2 out of the 3 soap dispensers were out of soap in the shower. The pictures advertised kitchen-ware, a blender and a coffee maker, non of which were in the room. Another issue I had was with the :
general building cleanliness. For some reason the shared kitchen and laundry space had a dozens of Uber eats bags of trash on the floor (which smelled foul). Another alarming thing we found was that several times in the 3 days we stayed the oven in the communal space was left on while nothing was being cooked. I personally had to turn off the oven (with nothing in it) twice because the entire top floor smelled like it was burning. I guess if you’re looking for a cheap place to rest your head for a few hours a night this place would be suitable. I personally will probably just stay in a hotel next time I’m in the area. One positive take away is that the location is really excellent. Shopping, restaurants and the Boston commons all within walking distance.
