While I didn't get a chance to meet Shawn, he was very responsive to questions and check in/out was easy. Nik was very pleasant and informative about the area. The home was nice, clean and modern. The bedroom was spacious and comfortable. The private bathroom was a decent size, very nice shower and stocked with everything I needed. There was some street noise as some prior guests mentioned but typical residential noise and only during waking hours. It was easy to walk to stores, restaurants and public transit. The parks in Jamaica Plain are beautiful.
