One of the best Airbnb rentals we've stayed at! The apartment was clean and comfortable (the mattresses especially comfortable). The host was responsive and proactive, even allowing a last-minute adjustment to our departure schedule. The apartment is in an ideal location, just a few minutes walk from the T, grocery stores, and pharmacy. It was the perfect home base for exploring Boston and visiting friends in the suburbs. Thank you for hosting us!

Loved staying here! The living areas were more spacious than typical smaller Airbnb’s in Boston. It was so very convenient to both Harvard and MIT, and literally 5 min walk to HMart, CVS and anything you might need on Mass Ave, but the street was absolutely quiet! We were very comfortable!

We already want to come back! I cannot say enough great things about this space - the location was in a beautiful, quiet, and safe neighborhood and it was an easy walk for our kids to get to the T. We instantly felt right at home - the place is immaculate and the hosts have clearly invested in the mattresses and bedding which was absolutely incredible. I would recommend this place to anyone and everyone!

Blake has a great host and this apartment is very practical and relaxing. Our small family feels right at home. The space is minimal, clean and has a nice cozy aesthetic to it. The location is great, close to both Kendall and Central squares. The beds are comfortable, bathroom fixtures work well, noise machines are really useful, and the TV with the art slideshow is a nice touch. The parking spot out back is great. Also, we had a medical emergency and the hosts were very understanding and offered to help which we appreciated a lot. We definitely intend to return someday.

We have free dedicated off-street parking for the unit for travel by car. The neighborhood is walkable and the apartment is a 5 minute walk to the red line for getting to MGH, downtown Boston or visiting other well-known Cambridge squares. For people confident with biking on the city streets, there are many convenient bike rental stations called Blue Bikes located around Cambridge and Boston.
