John and his brother Steven were gracious hosts. When I inquired about the location of ice trays, Steven went out and bought us two new ones! And when we somehow managed to lock ourselves out of the apartment on a Friday night, Steven apologized to us for the delay as he was on the other side of the city! I pulled him out of his Friday night plans and he apologized to me! They really want their guests to enjoy their stay and will do anything to make sure you do.
The apartment was spacious (even with three adults and a baby), well equipped, and comfortable. I'm spoiled by my bed and home and used to being disappointed when traveling. Not so in John's apartment!
The West Roxbury train station is a short walk (less than 5 minutes) and it's a short 30 minute ride to South Station in Boston. Tip: if you're not local, get the MBTA app to make purchasing tickets and finding train times easily.
We enjoyed our time at John's place and would love to stay again on our future trips to Boston.
