I’ll start with the good things. The room was clean on arrival, and location was great and central to Boston, and if only staying for short periods of time can be a gem of a booking.
HOWEVER, the listing is misleading. We were not told we were going to be on the 4th floor which would not be that big of an issue, if the kitchen was not in the first floor and we didn’t plan on cooking lunch and dinner every day for our 6 week stay, which meant we had to go up and down 3 flights of stairs multiple times a day.
Additionally, they advertise the space as having a FULL kitchen, yet it lacked basic necessities like a trash can and a table to eat at (so we ate dinner standing, or sitting in bed every night, and trash piled up in the kitchen every day which is unhygienic). There were also no oven trays or oven mitts, rendering the oven useless.
Lastly, communication was terrible. After going back and forth for a while, they finally agreed to move us to a room closer to the kitchen. But it always felt as we were talking to a robot, not a human.
Also, be wary of the pictures on any of the listings by this host. The room they moved us into was a completely different room than what was advertised.
If you’re only going for a short time, this can be a great place for the price.
