It was perfect and no issue. It is understood it is a tight parking, and this should be a one-way street not a two way

Double Booked!

We were double booked into the property and spent hours on the phone trying to resolve the problem with VRBO. We received hotel rooms for the first night, but received no help for the following two nights. VRBO did nothing to resolve the issue after the first evening even though they said they would. Completely unacceptable! This is a VRBO problem, not necessarily the property or the owner, but I’ve spent hours on the phone trying to resolve this…no luck yet…therefore the bad review.

EXTREMELY DISAPPOINTED

I cannot in good conscience recommend this host or property. I diligently searched for a property that would accomodate my family (particularly my elderly in-laws) for my daughter's graduation. After making the decision that this location would be great for it's amenities and location, I booked in July 2023 for a stay in May 2024. ON THE DAY THAT WE WERE LEAVING TO HEAD TO THE PROPERTY FOR OUR STAY, I received three emails at 7:00 a.m. informing us that our reservation had been canceled, our money refunded and that the property had been double booked. Although the host suggests the double booking was "an issue with their [VRBO] system," I STRONGLY suspect that the property was booked on multiple platforms and the higher price offered was taken. The host also said she was trying to contact local hosts to help but we never heard from her. What was to be a joyous time was tainted by the stress of trying to find substitute lodging 7 hours away, spending countless hours on the telephone with VRBO on multiple days trying to secure comparable housing and not receiving timely updates despite the fact that this was to be expedited-ALL WHILE DRIVING. Do not trust this host for important stays!

Perfect for our quick trip

Worked well for us in preparation for an upcoming surgery. I can second what some other reviewers said about the noise from downstairs (other guests included multiple kids), but that quieted down at bedtime. We'd definitely stay here again. Thanks for having us.

Plenty of room for my family. Only thing missing is a full length mirror and I don't remember seeing that is was on the second floor. My elderly mother struggled a little. I could have missed it though. Overall it was everything we needed.

In the heart of Boston!

This is a second floor unit in the Somerville area of Boston. It is close to restaurants, shopping centers and the train. The area is quiet and the house is located in a cul de sac with it's own parking. The unit is perfect for families. There are four bedrooms, a spacious living room and kitchen area. Definitely consider a stay if you are visiting Harvard/ MIT or downtown Boston as it is quite close to everything. The host is very responsive which is a plus. We will definitely consider for our next trip to Boston.

We were in Somerville for a family party and this location was perfect. The condo is spacious and worked perfectly for all 7 of us. Parking in the driveway was a big plus as we have found in the past that it is difficult to get on street parking. Thank you for a lovely stay!

Property was clean. Location could not be beat. The best part is that there was off-street parking which is a must in greater Boston. Only 15 minutes away from central Boston was so convenient.

Attention the address is Auburn ave and not Auburn street. Do not rely on the exterior appearance of the House because once inside everything is in accordance with the description on the rental site.
