Great communication with host, clean, short walk to the T. This home was just what we needed for a base camp for visiting Boston. We didn’t use the kitchen so I’m not sure about that, but the beds were all big, comfortable and clean.

Double-booked

Arrived at the property at 4-ish, but had never received check in info. So I left messages, emails, and voicemails. They never returned calls or messages. VRBO had to contact owner. Turns out the owner double-booked us through another app. I received 100% refund, but it didn’t help me find a place to stay in the one hour I had left before we went to the event that prompted our trip to Boston. If they had returned my calls or messages so I could have found alternative arrangements sooner, my rating would be different. That being said, VRBO customer service gets 5 stars.

Enjoyed our stay. Not too far from Harvard which is what we were looking for. Spacious and nice inside. Close to train but didn't cause any issues. Washer/dryer was a bonus. No surprises. Would definitely stay again.

Boston in the heat

No surprises, it looked as nice in person as in the pictures. Recommend leaving instructions about using the air conditioner, took us several hours of sweating in the heat wave to figure it out.Overall, very positive stay.

Quick trip to Boston

We only stayed one night at the property and we really only slept there. We were in town for the Red Sox so didn’t spend much time there. Overall it was just as advertised. The neighborhood is a little out of the way from Boston. The only negative is the 2nd bathroom is on the other side of the apartment from 3 of the bedrooms and the other is inside the other bedroom. It’s a little inconvenient to share for a larger group. But for us it was fine for 1 night. Flavia was very responsive and provided some good advice for getting around.

Great home base for college tours

Two families visiting colleges during Spring Break. Central location made it easy get around, 2 king beds great for parents and queens in other 2 rooms great for teens. Easy layout, all the necessities provided, including parking. Great stay!

Lovely Experience in East Somerville

This property worked out fantastic for our family visit to Boston. While the exterior of the home is not updated, this unit’s accommodations were excellent! The 4 bedrooms slept grandma & grandpa, my husband & me, & our 3 young boys. I appreciate the rental having a few extra perks like a washed/dryer with detergent for our use, and the bathrooms stocked with mini toothpaste, stops, and facial wipes. Excellent walking distance to the east Somerville T stop!

Nice spot in Somerville

2nd floor unit that is spacious, very clean. About equidistant to Union Sq and Assembly Row. Worked well for a weekend bachelor party. We comfortably slept 8 in the bedrooms, and there are a couple pullouts as well.

Bachelor trip

Worked really well for a bachelor group of 12. Plenty of room to sleep and hang out, and the proximity to Boston is perfect. We had to take Uber XL’s everywhere, and no trip was beyond $30. Would highly recommend!

Good fit for family

Overall, the stay was perfect for what my family needed to spend a day in Boston. The walkability was a little bit far from things, but better than driving and parking. Especially on a nice day. Close grocery store was easy to find! Driving to Boston was a breeze and everyone slept comfortably.

Beautiful second floor apartment

With 8 of us, we were concerned about having enough comfortable sleeping space. This place was perfect. With 4 bedrooms and 2 full bathrooms. We had plenty of room. The space was clean and felt very homey. It was perfect. The neighborhood didn’t look like much but the inside definitely made up for that.

Great family trip to Boston

There were 8 of us on a family trip to Boston and we could not have enjoyed our place more. It was an extremely comfortable stay. Everyone commented how comfortable the beds were. The parking spots were key as we had two cars and it was very easy to get to Boston or Cambridge by driving or using the T. The host was extremely responsive to communication. A great place that we would definitely book again.

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!
