Large victorian home 15 mins from downtown lots of local restaurants and bars

Space is very open and great for hosting. Issues we had include the basement bathroom light did not work (had to use with the door open), we counted 1 less bed than advertised (5 total), and the kitchen was only moderately stocked, no paper towels, dish soap, or cleaning supplies.

The house was as advertised as far as what was seen in the pictures. Some of the light bulbs/fixtures were not operational, but the house as a whole was very clean and accommodating. Communication with the host was quick and straightforward.

Host was quick to respond and helpful. It had very spacious living area. There is a king bed, all the "queen" beds were actually doubles. There were bath towels but no washcloths. There was a Keurig, not coffee maker as advertised. It was sufficient for our two day stay. We had a great visit to Boston. The house location was easy driving to the harbor walk and seaport district. We were able to Uber relatively cheap to Fenway and downtown Boston. It was overall a good experience with this host. Thank you!

The house was nice, and it comfortably sleeps 10, but they only have plates, bowls and cutlery for five. there’s one pot no pans. no dish rag to wash the dishes there’s a pizza sheet, cooking utensils, and three rolling pins . They have a coffee maker, but no coffee cups, The dryer doesn’t work so that was a nightmare. Many of the lights were burned out and the yard hadn’t been mowed in weeks and the six days we were there nobody did it. The yard and back patio have junk in corners and the stairwell next to the patio is full of trash, which is a real eyesore. It’s outwardly nice but very inconvenient. I didn’t lower my rating based on those inconveniences because I did not reach out and ask them to fix any of it. I rated cleanliness a little bit lower because outwardly it looked clean, but when you walked on the floor barefoot. your feet got very dirty so mopping apparently wasn’t done. I stayed at a VRBO instead of a hotel because I would be able to pack less and wash my things and cook some of my own meals. Unfortunately, in this house that was impossible unless I planned on buying them pots and pans and dishes. For anyone staying here, I would point out This is not a very handicap or elderly friendly home and the short distance to the trolley is actually about a mile on very narrow sometimes slanted sidewalks. so if you’re elderly, that might not be an easy trek. There are Ubers that wil take you there for anywhere between 7 to 10 a day.
