The room pictures and description are accurate. The hosts are very nice. The room is private. Brighton Center area is about a 10 minute walk, where you can find some places to eat and shop. Access to the train to reach Boston Common area and downtown, but at least a 15 minute walk, with some uphill on the way back to the house. The train ride is about 40 minutes each way; the stop for returning is Chiswick (not obvious unless you ask someone). Seems like a better place to stay if you have a car.
