Our stay at Amanda's house was awesome! The place is wonderfully cozy, tastefully furnished and decorated, well stocked with everything you could possibly need or want, and conveniently located steps away from Whole Foods, East Side Market and the restaurants/shops at Wayland Square. We didn't have the opportunity to walk to Brown/RISD but it was just a quick ride by car. We did walk/jog along the East Bay Bike Trail to India Point which was lovely - the trail is easy to access from the house. Amanda was extremely responsive to my questions both before and during our stay. She even bought some supplies for the house to help us prepare a late Thanksgiving meal for our family while we were there which was incredibly kind and helpful. The house is a great place to hang out - we would love to stay there again when we have more time and warmer weather to enjoy the outdoor patio and fire pit. I really can't say enough about this place - it was perfect in every way - I highly recommend!
