George is a welcoming guy and exemplary at communicating clearly; he always responded almost immediately when I wrote to him or called him. He is very organized with setting things up with the bedrooms, the available space in the fridge, etc. The bed was very comfortable, and everything in the kitchen and bathrooms worked well. The only slightly uncomfortable thing was the heating being a little strong in my upstairs bedroom, but to be fair I didn't ask about this at the time as I assumed that nothing could be done. George generously offered (for a fee) to let me borrow his visitor parking permit for my car, but I got a ticket anyway for not having a "resident permit" on the nearby street where I wound up parking; George and future guests should be aware of this danger.
I fully got what was advertised; George's place was convenient to commute to downtown Boston; and it was well worth avoiding a hotel in Boston which would have been 2-3 times more expensive. Definitely recommend!
