Our stay with Francisco was great!
The host: Francisco first met us at check-in to explain where everything is. Francisco was very fast to answer our many questions via text and phone call. He is very nice and very welcoming. You can really tell he cares about making us feel at home.
Cleanliness: The room was very clean and exactly as advertised. The bathroom was shared but was also in very clean condition.
Security: All of the doors have a keypad so there is no need for any keys. Though the front door entrance is through the first floor apartment, we rarely felt like we were intruding on the current 1st floor tenants.
Location: The apartment is located in a quiet area about 2-3 minutes walking from Green Street Orange Line Train station. The neighborhood is charming and very welcoming. There are a lot of restaurants and they are just a short walk away on Centre Street.
Other great bonuses: Toiletries and towels were provided by Francisco which was very convenient. The TV was hooked up for Netflix and other apps. Laundry W/D was available for our use.
One minor downside: This apartment guest room is located below first floor so there is only one window and it does not open. This prevented good air circulation and allowed for the room to become stuffy.
I would definitely recommend this Airbnb to anyone staying in the Jamaica Plain area!
