I stayed in Paul’s BnB for a month. Overall, it was a good stay that I would recommend to anyone who wants to be close to the city. Here are some of my pros and cons:
Pros:
- Paul was a very communicative host! If I needed anything he was always willing to help.
- The housemates made my stay worthwhile. They were very kind and made me feel welcomed.
- The BnB is very close to public transportation and Northeastern University. You’re in the center of Boston within half an hour.
- The room was furnished, which is perfect for when you’re only staying for a few months.
Cons:
- My check-in sadly did not go very smoothly as I stood knocking on a closed door for 10 minutes before one of the housemates opened it.
-The dishwasher was broken at the time I was there and the toilet also sometimes had minor issues with the reservoir (of which the cover was missing).
- The neighbourhood is not known as one of the safest, but you just have to be mindful about when and where you’re going out.
