Reina's home in Allston is a great steal. Great location right by Harvard Business School! While Allston can be tough to get around with no T stop, I was able to take the bus or walk to most of the places I needed to go. The room was clean and the bed very comfortable (and electric with a remote to sit up).I appreciated Reina's attention to detail in cleanliness in the time of COVID. While staying at the house, there was another guest staying in the other room across from me, but we mostly kept to ourselves and there was no issues sharing the bathroom in the hallway. The bathroom was also kept up well and there were shower amenities provided. Having access to a kitchen was nice to keep leftovers in the fridge and heat up food in the microwave (no cooking on the stove top).
Reina was also on top of communications and flexible. I was able to last minute change my stay due to a change in flights and not lose any money on it. If my flights hadn't changed, Reina would have allowed me to early check in/leave my things at the house until my flight. Check-in is in person, so she can show you around the house and tell you how the keys/doors work, but it was a breeze.
