My month-long stay was wonderful! The description of the place is very accurate- it’s not the most modern and roomy place but it’s very comfortable, clean, and functional.
I was able to work from home most days comfortably with the AC on during a hot Boston August. The AC’s filter needed to be replaced and the table was wobbly, but still worked for eating and working.
There is enough room to have one or two friends over for dinner.
The natural light was very nice as well, and I had a nice view of the street. I loved having the T Stop (Green line connects to most places around Boston and Allston), Star Market, and Super 88 right across the street.
The host was very responsive and the check-in process was smooth.
Amenities:
There were cleaning supplies in the basement which was very nice, the only thing is that the vacuum didn’t work very well so I’d avoid using it. The in-basement Laundry was a hassle since there is a coin shortage - the banks are stingy with quarters and Star Market didn’t give me any either. I ended up taking my laundry down the street to the laundromat.
