This location is great, right by Central Square and the Red Line subway, easy access to the airport, Harvard and Boston. Nice big kitchen, friendly residents - Walter from Cape Verde and his sister, who works hard cleaning.
Accessories here are Spartan- no shampoo, small towel and soap bars the size of postage stamps and the consistency of 80-grade sandpaper. But the kitchen and deck w bbq are great.
If staying in winter, a plug-in radiator will eventually warm up the room.
I was asked to pay for parking in the driveway, and given a Vnmo address to transfer payment, until I pointed out that the listing had said parking was free for guests staying three days or more.
Overall, a bargain no-frills location - clean, secure, nothing fancy but very handy for getting around by foot, car or public transport.
