Staying at David and Jane‘s beautifully appointed apartment exceeded our expectations! From our first communication with them, it was such an enjoyable and welcome experience.
Not only is the apartment lovely, absolutely clean and well-maintained, the owners have thought of everything down to details like a phone jack behind the night table, hooks in just the right places in the bathrooms, and even a little bar under a shelf in the main bathroom to hang up a wet washcloth. These may seem like minor details but they are often missing in even fine hotels and they do make living so much easier.
The kitchen is well stocked and extremely cleverly designed in a somewhat unusual space. We loved having the extra half bathroom though there was only two of us staying there. The master bedroom was spacious with plenty of storage and closet space and the bed was exceedingly comfortable! I loved having the desk in the second bedroom where I could set up my computer and have excellent workspace. The living room was furnished impeccably including a second dining area to accommodate 4, a comfortable couch and marvelous rocking chair and a large screen TV. And the eating area off the kitchen accommodated six people very comfortably where we were able to have our family over for dinner during our stay.
Despite the very cold temperatures while we were there, the heating system worked wonderfully and we always had plenty of hot water for great showers. The linens were lovely and the bath towels abundant and plush!
We could not have been more pleased with the neighborhood. It always felt safe and quiet and we appreciated being so close to many wonderful amenities including restaurants, stores and a wonderful park where we were able to meet and play with our grandchildren with whom we were visiting in the Cambridge vicinity. Parking was easy on the street close to the house and David and Jane provide a neighborhood parking pass for renters’ use.
Having family in Cambridge but living far from there ourselves, we feel so fortunate to have found this incredible Airbnb and look forward to returning to it in the future. It is a truly special and wonderful place to stay!
David and Jane are AMAZING HOSTS!!
