We had a wonderful week-long stay at Albena's place and could not have been more pleased with our selection. Firstly Albena is wonderfully responsive which made everything so easy. The location is great, near to public transportation and several lovely bars, restaurants and other amenities in the area. We will stay again at Albena's.

Absolutely loved Patricia’s place! Wish we could give it more than 5 stars. Patricia was so accommodating and made us feel welcome from the first minute. Definitely recommend staying at Patricia’s place - especially over in the city centre as Medford is such a nice, safe and lovely suburb!

JillRating, 5 stars1 month ago
We had a great stay at Aaron's place. It was perfect for the two of us. Walking distance to plenty of restaurants and things to do. Aaron was very responsive to all our questions. We liked the little touches of shampoo, conditioner, body wash, dish soap, hairdryer, etc. Plenty of closet space, hangers and drawer space. Nice quiet neighborhood.

Bright & Private 700sq ft 1 bedroom/Gilman Sq

CarolineRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
Eugenia's place was the perfect escape for my reading vacation! The chairs and bed are super comfortable, and it's really close to Sarma, which is an amazing restaurant. The Somerville library is also a short walk away. The apartment gets great light - during the days, I didn't even need to turn on the lights because the sun comes in so beautifully. It was also extremely clean when I arrived. And the towels are super fluffy. Thanks so much Eugenia! One thing to note: there's no kitchen, just a minifridge and microwave. That was fine for me, but just a heads up!

RachelRating, 5 stars1 month ago
Janet was an amazing host and was very friendly. When we arrived Janet came over to turn the heating on and show us how it worked she wanted us to feel welcome and comfortable. Janet was also really helpful with how to get around Boston and suggesting activities we might enjoy. She was also very accommodating when we wanted to stay an extra night. Very clean apartment with everything we needed and also checked in with us during our stay to see if we needed extra coffee etc. Would definitely recommend staying here!! Thank you Janet for a wonderful stay ☺️

*HEART OF BOSTON* Downtown/South End/Back Bay

MaryRating, 5 stars2 weeks ago
I had an incredible stay at this beautiful apartment in the South End of Boston! The location couldn’t be better – it’s just steps away from a vibrant array of fantastic restaurants, public transit, and Boston's Theater District. The apartment itself is stunning, with tasteful décor that creates a warm, inviting atmosphere. It’s spacious and thoughtfully stocked with everything you could need for a comfortable stay. The attention to detail is evident in every corner, from the cozy touches to the modern amenities. I couldn’t have asked for a better home base while exploring the city. Highly recommend!

This Airbnb was a lovely place for a friend and I to catch up while we were both on vacation. The host was responsive to all questions asked and the building itself was immaculate. The only issue during our stay was the traffic, but that’s Massachusetts for you.

StevenRating, 5 stars1 week ago
This was my first time using Airbnb and I have to say, amazing! Carol and John’s place was exactly what we needed for a quiet and peaceful weekend getaway. We were able to stargaze from the hot tub, cook a great dinner in the kitchen which had everything we needed, enjoy a comfortable and cozy night in watching movies while also having easy access to the train to go right into Boston. Carol was the best! Making sure we were comfortable and having everything we needed. We would definitely recommend to our friends and stay here again!

Lina's place was as described, clean, and spacious. Our family of four was quite comfortable. The kitchen has all standard appliances, dishes, pots and pans if you want to cook. The beds were comfortable with new mattresses. The location was perfect for our trip of college visits. Only 15-20 minutes of drive to any in the area. Lina was responsive and was willing to help us out when we needed to print out a document. Thank you!

I was so pleased to stay at this quiet oasis in the middle of the hectic Boston suburbs. Everything was first-rate. The apartment was well-lit, well-appointed, and extremely private and quiet. It is just two blocks off a busy street but was completely serene and quiet.
