Overall: met our needs and was a comfortable and clean stay; I didn't feel it was the best value but my BF thought it was great. Read below for details and decide for yourself:)
Best parts: bed was great (firm-ish, king size in room 2B); room was clean and comfortable overall; did not meet host but she was communicative and helped with parking. Parking was readily available, especially by Boston standards. (Just have to check signs for alternating street cleaning in the morning)
Other notes:
House is as-described as far as neighborhood goes.
bathroom was clean. One of our towels smelled slightly musty.
Walls were thin so you can hear others on that level out in the hallway
Pictures make it look more cosy and homey than it felt in person. In person it felt a little 'cold' - that's just me though. There are little signs all over the house letting you know things which is helpful. There was also one in bedroom to ask that you not move thermostat above 68 degrees because 'heat is expensive.' - not the most welcoming
We got there late so it was a little 'shady' walking up to the place. No lights on out front and no one to greet us. So felt like anyone could have walked in. Not a serious concern but not ideal
