We had a very comfortable stay at Steve’s place and would definitely stay again. It was great value for the amount of space and location.
Location:
Steve’s place was located right in the Boston University Area, and it seemed like a very safe and walkable area. It’s location was perfect and an easy walk to a lot of the sites we wanted to visit like Newbury Street, the Mapparium, and the Skywalk and mall. We didn’t have a car, but there was a parking pass available, and there was plenty of Ubers and Lyfts available when we wanted to get to other sites that were more west or north like Bunker Hill, Boston Common, Cambridge, and the Museum of Science (all within a 10 min drive).
Cleanliness:
Everything from the beds to the bathroom and the common area was very clean.
Pros:
- Location and value!
- Very clean
- Responsive host
- Easy Check-in and Check-out
- Common Area was comfortable with enough space for us all to sit and watch on his smart TV (perfect for us because we wanted to watch the Winter Olympics)
- Equipped with everything needed: cups, plates, toiletries, towels
Cons:
- Small bathroom, but it was ok and expected and very clean. Steve also provided everything we needed including shampoo, soap, and towels (we might have had a misunderstanding with number of towels needed—so just check in with him before your stay).
- The apartment was very hot temperature-wise, and we were unable to figure out if we could reduce the heat. I think it was building-set. This was easily fixable by opening the windows a crack.
Overall, would definitely recommend to a friend and would stay again myself. We were a group of 5 and it was a comfortable stay for all of us in a great location for good value!!
