Zvi and Julia were wonderful hosts. The Airbnb is in a great location. Tucked away in a safe neighborhood but also very close to several T stops and a few restaurants. The Airbnb is beautifully remodeled. The bathroom was great (shower is amazing with very hot water which is a must have for me) and the entire place was extremely clean. I had everything I needed for a short stay for one person. Yes, Zvi and Julia and their family live above and yes you can hear them. If you are looking to sleep in late and take mid-day naps, this probably isn't the place for you. For me, I was able to sleep in peacefully until around 8:30am each day on the weekend and spent most of the day out in the city. The times when I was home during the day, you can hear footsteps and movement. Just beware when you book. I had no issue at all with it and would stay here again. I got to meet Julia and a few of their little ones on my way out and they were extremely nice. Highly recommend this little gem if you're looking for a place to sleep while you explore the beautiful city of Boston.
