This lower level room is large and bright, surprising for a basement room. Francisco leaves a welcome stash of toiletries such as toothpaste and tissues. There are plenty of towels and extra blankets. The kitchen and bathroom are very nice, especially the fabulous shower stall (large, prettily tiled, with a glass door and one big shower head in the dead center...very European). The mounted pumps for shampoo, etc, were full; not always the case when you travel!
The location is very good, very close to two T stops. We regularly use the T when we are in Boston. We also regularly go for coffee at Ula Cafe and pizza at Bella Luna restaurant, very near Francisco’s place.
We had taken Leah’s advice about bringing sleep masks, and were glad. The door to the shared spaces has shades but light still sleeps through, sometimes when you don’t expect it.
The nice big TV has Netflix and Amazon Prime, and maybe other streaming services but we had stopped scrolling by that point so I can’t say for sure.
Because we use AirBnb to stay in Jamaica Plain so often (our son’s family lives there) I can state that this room, like so many others in JP, is charming, close to interesting businesses, and is a very amenable and comfortable jumping-off point for your visit to Boston.
