I chose this stay because of the location and it did not disappoint. I usually stay in Marriott hotels whenever I travel for work, but after living in hotels for weeks at a time, I thought I would give Airbnb a chance for work-related travel... and not sure if I can ever go back to hotels! I didnt feel like I was in an empty, sad room, but quite the opposite. The home and the room were very cozy, and Nan and Therman were so hospitable and always available.
During my trip, I shared the common spaces with a wonderful couple visiting from Argentina which made the stay even more wonderful, because I was able to chat with them in Spanish, which was such a joy!
The home is near Central Station which has a bunch of wonderful restaurants (highly recommend Brookline Lunch) and local Harvard and MIT student hotspots. It is also very close to St. Mary of the Assumption which was great to walk by.
Lastly, amenities are great! Room is a great size and I really appreciated having the private half bath.
