I had a very pleasant stay when traveling to the Boston area for a conference. The room and first floor in general is spacious, peaceful, and nicely decorated. I was able to find parking right on their street, and it's a short walk to the Central Square T station and the bus which took me down Massachusetts Ave into Boston. Initially based on reading the listing, I thought the room and bathroom were more private since they were on the 1st floor, but Jonathan and Minga seem to use the common area frequently for social gatherings. However, they were very respectful and considerate of my space, and communicated their plans to me. It was a lovely home!
