Staying with Riyo was great. Before we arrived we got an email with check-in instructions and throughout our stay communication with Riyo was great. She is very friendly and a great host and she was able to help us with those little vacation things like lending us a can opener and a picknick blanket and she gave us some tips on what to see and where to eat nearby.
The room was clean and as pictured. It came stocked with lots of snacks and water, toiletries including sunscreen, and a microwave. The bed was clean and comfortable and the bathroom (while small) was very clean and felt pretty luxurious.
Location is great. Jamaica Plains is very quiet and feels very safe and cozy, and there are some shops and places to eat nearby. Better yet, the subway station is only minutes away and will take you straight into the heart of Boston.
All in all, we were very satisfied with our stay and we recommend Riyu's place if you are looking for a place to stay in a quiet neighborhood with easy access to the city centre, and if you don't need a kitchen.
Thank you Riyu!
