Deborah was very welcoming, very helpful (sent us emails during our stay etc). The kitchen was available to us at all time, the house was very quiet, and not far from the subway (red line, 5-10 minutes walk, and 20 minutes from the city center). The neighborhood was very safe and close to Harvard square. However, the house wasn't spot on clean, and it was way to hot in the other rooms (there was air conditioning in our bedroom, so that was perfect!).
