My wife stayed at Miriam's place, and this is her review: "This studio is modest and very small but completely functional. It works well for one person and it is doable for a couple if you don't spend much time inside. It is essentially a room in a huge old house so you will hear what other tenants are doing. Most of the time it was quiet but on my last night people next door started yelling and screaming at 4 am. It was going on for 15 min or so and after that everything was quiet again. WiFi works perfectly. Hot water and the shower were great. The hosts left water, juice, and cream cheese in the fridge, which was a nice touch. Heating worked sometimes better sometimes worse but there is also a huge space heater available so it was not a problem. The neighborhood looks a bit sketchy but I did not have any problems. The hosts advise not to walk around Jackson Square late at night. In general, the eastern part of the Center St is not pleasant, but the western part looks much better and leads you to nice parks. If you take bus 39 or 41 it will bring you to the great Harvard arboretum. Bus 39 and the train from Heath Street will also take you to downtown Boston. Communication with Miriam and Hasban was great. They answered my questions quickly and were very accommodating in terms of check-in and check-out times. Thank you!"
