This was such a wonderful place to stay. Quaint, small but truly the perfect size. I stayed here for a month while working at Tufts Medical. This was conveniently located close to the Alewife T-stop, which has a well-lit path between the station and the street. I also walked to Davis Square multiple times. Felt safe during day and night. And so pleasantly quiet at night!
Hugest asset is Regina, the landlord. She is so kind and keeps the entire house clean as can be (this is the cleanest AirBnb I have ever stayed at and was cleaner than any hotel I've visited). She made sure I felt comfortable and always came through when I needed something (like a shovel to dig my car out of the snow on the street). Speaking of snow, the walkways and stairs were clearly shoveled and salted. There was tea and coffee in my room as well as some slippers. The room is nice and bright! Walls are on the thin side, so conversations may be heard in the room next door, but only if individuals spoke particularly louder than normal. Plenty of street parking.
I absolutely loved being here and will certainly keep this as my go-to AirBnb for the area. 5 stars all around!!
