Steve made us feel very welcome and made it easy to access the property even though we were quite late arriving.
The house is in an excellent neighbourhood with a lovely grocers just across the road and a supermarket/cafe which is wonderful for breakfast a few minutes away.
It was also a pleasant walk to Harvard square.
Our main surprise was that the property was a little more shabby chic than we anticipated from the photos even though Steve had told us that it was an old building. The bedrooms were very functional if a little uninspiring. The lounge had an amazing TV screen and very comfy seating however it was a little dark and had no airconditioning. There is quite an eyesore of a bus shelter underconstruction just outside although there was no work being done at the time of our stay. The veranda next to the kitchen was a very pleasant place to sit outdoors. It was also very useful having the parking space and we also appreciated the coffee and tea supplied. Overall the house met our needs and we enjoyed our stay.
