Great deal for sure, super close to the lively area of Central Square, but if you're new to Boston all the locals there will say go to Allston. I listened and went there, and it was amazing. This Airbnb isn't too far from it.
About .5 mil walk from the train in Central Square, and about .5mile walk from MIT. I did the walk it was easy.
House is really modern, and clean. Host was responsive, and kind. I had no issues here, and really enjoyed it. Great value. I loved my stay here.
There is no bidet so plan for that if you need one. They're generally hard to find in the US at any place so can't complain about it would be cool if there was one for people that are allergic to paper.
Overall amazing experience, I loved it. I was very happy to see a strict no shoes policy, since I do the same in my own home. Be sure to take them off at the door~
