Sabina's place was a true home-away-from-home in Mattapan... we were warmly greeted and made comfortable right away, including extra pillows. The neighborhood is pleasant: residential, safe, quiet, and easy street parking. A few shops and Carribean eateries, as well as commuter rail line into Boston are just a couple blocks away. Kitchen is stocked with dishes and pans if you are cooking or warming leftovers on a longer stay, with a comfy common seating area. Shared bath means you need to be flexible about timing for morning showers, but with our pleasant co-residents, was no problem. Rooms are on first floor but there are some steps coming in from street level. A delightful place to stay, hospitable hosts, and a good value for the greater Boston area.
