Hilary and Hazel were brilliant hosts. We have used Airbnb many times over the past year and both agree that this was by far the best experience. The reviews are true, the room is pretty small. However Hilary and Hazel are so welcoming that it doesn't matter. You are free to use the rest of the house and make yourself at home. Which we did, and even enjoyed an evening with them both watching the presidential debate.
The area is great to explore, and really close to the T to get into downtown Boston, with some great eateries and (real) pubs! The area is beautiful and feels very safe. We would highly recommend this sweet little house in JP!!
