This was my first shared space experience with Airbnb. It worked out great. I miscommunicated my arrival time but Ian was able to pull the room together nicely.
The room served its purpose well. The bathroom was never an issue as far as sharing. The balcony seating a great place for morning coffee and journaling. Location felt safe and I parked the car to enjoy walking and the T. Lots of food choices nearby.
One happy benefit of a shared experience is other roomies. I was lucky enough to have a Boston Marathon participant from Canada for my stay.
Between him and the host the conversations were easy and enjoyable. It certainly added to the stay.
I added my running roomie to my marathon tracking app and happily cheered him as well as my friend I originally came to see across the finish line.
This is a great location and experience for solo adventures and a great introduction to the shared spaces Airbnb stays.
