My girlfriend and I spent four nights in Boston, two at the Hyatt Regency and the last two nights at Boris and Susan’s place. The Hyatt was much more centrally located and within walking distance of just about everything we wanted to experience. We wanted to stay in a different part of town to broaden our experience. We walked to the subway station (approx 5 min walk, very easy) and had a quick/smooth ride to get to where we needed to be. There’s a liquor store, grocery store, Marshall’s and a bunch of bars/restaurants in the area too, so you don’t have to travel far for any of those desires. The home is very clean, updated with new floors, cabinets, granite countertops, two full bathrooms and STOCKED with beverages and snacks (also a Keurig with coffee and tea). We spent absurd amounts of $$ on drinks and snacks when we stayed at the hotel, so the fact that they were provided was a nice touch that was greatly appreciated. Boris and Susan are very thoughtful, obviously concerned with their guests’ comfortability and as a result there are nice touches all over the residence. There were a few guests staying in other rooms while we were there. Everyone was friendly and cordial, respectful and quiet. Thankfully the closet in our bedroom had both a portable heater and AC unit. We prefer to sleep with a fan on and couldn’t travel with one, so we were happy to see that available to us in the house. We prefer a house on the cool side so while the heater wasn’t necessary (the house was comfortable), these are all minor details that are underrated when it comes to availability. The main complaint I have is that there isn’t a tv in the residence. I admittedly didn’t read the entire list of amenities where at the bottom it lists what isn’t included, so when I messaged the hosts to inquire about it (I didn’t want to wander into other areas of the home to search) we eventually received a response letting us know that there isn’t a tv to create a peaceful and relaxing environment. Obviously people don’t go on vacation to hang out and watch tv, but Boston was playing in the World Series during our stay - and while we watched parts of the games at bars/restaurants, we also didn’t want to be out too late at night in a foreign place - and it would’ve been nice to be able to come back to the house and relax while watching tv/sports/a movie. The ad states that this is a perfect place for couples which I would have to slightly disagree with. It is VERY quiet in the house. We were obviously considerate of other people in the house but a bit apprehensive to even have a conversation when we retreated to the home for the night. I recognize the lack of a tv(s) may be irrelevant and unimportant to some, but I believe it’s another minor detail (of which there are few that are lacking at this residence) that can really add to the enjoyment and overall experience of the stay. The residence is VERY close (and a cheap ride) to the airport, which is a relief especially on the day you are departing. Overall, we had a positive experience and would highly recommend the airbnb. Tv issue aside (that’s on us for not reading the full list of amenities or lack thereof), this was by FAR the NICEST airbnb that we’ve ever stayed in.
