Welcoming 7-room house <15 miles to Boston & Salem
Karen was absolutely incredible. She was very responsive, respectful, and accommodating. We very much enjoyed our stay as my team and I were there on business. She was able to take care of us even on short notice. I really couldn’t be happier with her communication, the quality of their home, and the entire experience. Thank you so much Karen for inviting us into your home. This was truly a 12/10 experience. 😃😃

All the comforts of home, quiet city neighborhood
We loved our stay at Steve’s place! The communication with the host was very clear and helpful. The house was one of the most comfortable and well-appointed houses I’ve ever rented on AirB&B. It as quiet and in a great location in Brighton. I highly recommend it!

#9 Modern Home 15 min to Boston. Relax in Style!
Wonderful stay at Wally’s #9 in Everett! We came to Boston for Spring Break to see the Celtics and explore the city. The home was clean, private and in a quiet neighborhood. The home was clean and comfortable. We had a couple minor hiccups but Wally was quick to respond and all was well!

Sparkling Condo With Modern Amenities
Michelle was very responsive and great at communicating leading up to our stay. The house was easy to find, good neighborhood, perfectly clean and had everything we needed. Parking was included which was awesome. The T was easy to walk to so we could go downtown every day easily. The host recommendation for Lulu’s Allston was spot on, it was nearby and great. We felt right at home and had a wonderful stay and check out was also easy. Thank you Michelle for hosting a wonderful place!

Lovely East Cambridge Apartment
This place was cozy with everything you might need, even toys if you have small children. Jimmy was a very accommodating host; going above and beyond! We were so lucky to have this space for a very reasonable price. We all agreed the beds were comfy too, and it’s not easy to get approval from 4 different adults.

Quiet Melrose Home
The location was perfect for our needs. The beds are very comfortable, the shower is great with lots of hot water. It has a very comfortable and relaxing feel. There is an excellent Thai restaurant a few blocks away. The neighborhood is quiet and many local conveniences are in easy walking distance too.

Comfy, cozy and clean w/parking- Boston/Cambridge
Lovely spot, very cozy and a perfect spot to relax after long days walking around the city. The space was extremely clean and had nice conveniences. Would recommend!

2BR—Charming 1900s Home—1st Floor—25min to Boston
Amazing price and amazing place to spend Halloween! Great places to eat and adventure around! The house was peaceful but had very friendly atmosphere with the neighbors. If I could have Andrea be the host for every air bnb I would be greatful knowing I have someone that's reliable and great with communication. She will treat you right and has great recommendations!

Historic townhouse in the heart of Boston
We absolutely loved our stay! The location was perfect for our family trip to Boston - a short walk to Boston Commons, and close to the T to get anywhere in the city quickly. We loved the historic charm of the house, and the well equipped kitchen made breakfasts easy each morning before we took off on our Freedom Trail adventures. Thanks for a great stay!

Spacious, bright, modern, private.
Great value- cute & spacious apartment, very clean, responsive host. The beds were very comfortable! plenty of room for four people. Also, the bathroom was very nice with the heated towel rack & large walk in shower. Everything was new. also, the water bottles in the refrigerator were a nice touch. Thank you for a great stay!

Large 1-Bed. Condo in the Heart of the North End
Just got back from a week at Timothy's North End condo and it was really hard to leave! FANTASTIC location, just steps from Bova bakery and the North Church. Everything in the North End is a short walk away and if you don't mind a little exercise, you're close to Faneuil Hall/Quincy Market and more. The space looks exactly like the pictures (even better in person). There is plenty of seating, which is so appreciated. And a nice big coffee table to do puzzles. The bed is comfy and the location of the bedroom at the back of the unit makes for restful sleep (the neighborhood is pretty quiet at night). Our teen used the pull out sofa and it was comfortable (no annoying bar). The kitchen is well stocked for any cooking (or reheating your leftovers because there are a million fabulous restaurants right outside the door! Lots of linens, too. And laundry on a week vacation is a big plus. We'd stay here again in a heartbeat.

Upscale 2 Bdrm Suite: Kitchen, Spa Bath, Laundry
It was a great stay! Peter was very helpful in getting to know the area and Boston. The rooms were very tidy and cosy. It exceeded our expectations. Highly recommend

Sanitized Modern 3BD private home-near BCEC
We loved our stay in South Boston - it was perfect for our family of four with two teens. We loved the location and the ability to walk or take public transportation. The townhome was the ideal space for us and the home was just as advertised - very clean with comfortable beds. The laundry was great as well. We did not cook during our short stay, but the kitchen was nice with everything you need. It was also extremely convenient to the airport, which we appreciated the morning we left on an early flight. Tiffany has truly thought of everything - I highly recommend this lovely townhome.

-Sophisticated 3 BR/2 Bath/Prkng By Airpt/Boston
Exactly as advertised, Great location walking distance to stores and restaurants. off street parking on the property with our own parking spot. host was very responsive before and during our trip if we had any questions. ended up going to TD Garden both nights we were there and Uber was not a problem picking up from Linda's place and going to the Wounderland Subway terminal and back. another alternative is driving to the Wounderland subway which is a short 5 to 10 min drive depending on traffic to the terminal with lots of parking since wounderland has a covered parking garage. Thank you Linda for such a great AirBnb host and next time I want to catch a sporting event in Boston I would most definitely rent your AirBnb again.

Lovely sunny 2 BD home, great area. Free Parking
Wendy’s home served as a home away from home as we were in town to meet our new grandchild. The home is the downstairs unit of a 2 unit residence. Easy access to dining, shopping, local parks. The home itself is warm, comfortable, well-stocked with linens, kitchen items, etc. Coffee press and kettle. The sunroom was my favorite spot in the house. Great light throughout the day, warmed by a radiator and a comfy chair with ottoman and blanket. I highly recommend this beautiful home for any stay in the Brookline area. Thank you, Wendy!

Large 4Bed 2Bath Clean Alternative to Hotel Living
The apartment was as listed, and very clean, with all the amenities we needed to stay there. It was centrally located to all the areas we went to. The directions to get in were very clear. Dev was very responsive when I contacted him and it was overall a great stay.

Sweet lil’ Seaside Suite
Very comfortable suite. Close to everything and just as described. Would definitely stay again.

Quiet Low-Key Boston Get Away
Mary's apartment was clean and cozy, and full of whimsical knick-knacks. I enjoyed leafing through the cookbooks and stretching/yoga on the living room floor. The home is a 10-minute walk from the an excellent Mediterranean restaurant and the green line, and only 20 minutes to downtown Boston by train. When I had a question, Mary was there to answer. Will be back!

Luxury 3BR near Harvard/MIT w/ King Bed+Parking!
Philip was a great host. Very responsive and he was thinking a long with the needs we had. Location is 10/10, well equipped kitchen if you want to cook and the apartment was clean. Would recommend for a city trip to Boston!

Cape cod style seaside condo Boston, Airport,Train
We had a perfect time at Stevens place. Beds were good, amenities as advertised. This is a perfect spot for exploring Boston: - Easy walk to the station to catch the Blue Line in to Boston. Drops off at Aqueduct station for easy access. - Quick walk to Revere Beach, with lots of beachy restaurants, ice cream, etc. - Easy drive to Winthrop, where I recommend Jak's for a great cafe breakfast, and Vuolo's for amazing Italian. Both of them are easy to get to, and have easy parking. - Sit on the patio in the evening and watch the water and the airplanes. Lovely.

Sunny+Spacious +AC/walk to T Davis/Porter/Harvard
This was a great place to stay. We were a bachelorette party of 7 people — and we were all able to take rest time in the spacious are without being on top of each other. That type of space with that price in Boston is awesome. It was easy to get anywhere we needed. And checkout was so simple!

Mema's Place --Lovely apartment in private home
Wonderful and serene place to stay. Lots of room, clean, perfect for two and a puppy. Would definitely recommend.

Great, Quiet, Arty 2 Bedroom+ Apartment
We loved the location of this apartment. It was right near multiple train stations and close to dozens of restaurants. Greg was very responsive to all our questions. Apartment was clean, and Wi-Fi worked well.
