The house was close to the train station and about a 20 minute subway right into Boston. The neighborhood is not in the nicest area. There was a group of men hanging out late at night near the house. The house itself felt a bit like a hotel. There were keypad locks on the front and our bedroom so everything felt very secure. There were also multiple rooms in the house that had airbnb guests and we had to share the bathroom which was annoying at times. The host didn't meet us at the house or introduce himself but he always answered our messages promptly. The room looked exactly as displayed and the sheets on the bed were really nice. Even though a TV is displayed in the ad, there was no cable and we had to use our own Netflix account.
