Pros - Great central location, responsive hosts.
Cons - The place needs maintenance. Other guests have mentioned some of them, so the hosts should have been aware :
- NO HEAT CONTROL in the room - Heat is centralized in the building. Every time we wanted to adjust the temp, we had to contact a host who was responsive, but it didn't always lead to a solution. Finally, we were told there is a space heater in a locked closet - this should have been just provided in the room.
- Security issue: Access to the building and apartment from the parking lot is ALWAYS OPEN. Cannot be closed - we tried on all 10 days we were there, but there's no working lock and ANYONE can enter.
- WATER PRESSURE in the shower is super low. If you like your hot showers during Boston winters, you're going to be disappointed. The host said they would send someone - but no one came, and this is not a new issue (another guest has mentioned it) so it should have been fixed or mentioned
