Nicolas is the best host I have ever had at airbnb. He went out of his way to make sure that my stay at his apartment was perfect. The apartment is specially set up to host visitors; so it has all appliances that hotels offer (cable tv, coffee machine, iron, etc.), but it also has everything that a home can offer (stove, fridge, dishes, washing and drying machines). The apartment is very conveniently located a few steps from Kendall square and MIT Sloan.
