We have stayed at Elena's for several weeks and it has been a wonderful experience. Elena worked with us to meet some special needs for our 3 person family. She has been professional, kind, and gracious. Her place is beautiful and impeccably clean; she has obviously taken a lot of care in making it ready for guests. The bathroom and kitchen are newly renovated and well appointed. Elena has been very willing to go out and get anything we needed to make it an even better place to live. The unit itself is the second floor of a larger house. It has 2 bedrooms, one cozy and comfy with a twin bed. The other larger with a comfy king bed that can be divided into two twins as needed. The kitchen is average size with a counter top bar with seating for 3 for dining. There is a nice bathroom with a small washer and dryer. And there is a small living area. There is also an outdoor deck overlooking a garden and trees (and the backs of neighbor's houses - this is still the city) and with a full sized table and chairs. Elena lives on the first floor with a separate door. The door and stairs to this unit are also shared by a very nice and courteous relative of Elena's who lives on the 3rd floor. So, it is important to note, that he has to turn the corner inside this 2nd floor unit to get to his. Which means we see him every once in a while briefly in the hall, it also means we need to close the bedroom doors when we change clothes etc. just in case he comes down the stairs. This house is in one of the best locations for us. Jamaica Plain is a super vibrant part of the Boston with a safe, neighborhood feel. The house is a couple blocks from the T, a couple great parks including the well loved Jamaica Pond with boating and a running trail, and very close to some of the best shops and restaurants in the city on Centre St. I highly recommend this as a place to stay.
