The apt was suitable for 2 people. While the kitchen was small, the appliances satisfied our limited morning needs.
Would recommend some type of drain board and ensure that paper towels are present at check in.

A great value for a comfortable stay in the Boston area. We chose Cambridge as it seemed a little less hectic and more affordable. Victor's apt is just as described; with info on using the apt facilities (heat, air, fold out couch, etc.) and local transit and services info. Metro station is at nearby Harvard Square with easy access to Boston. Harvard University tour was interesting and informative. a laundry and Star Market is nearby for food,paper towels, napkins, etc. Gourmet food shop (Fromaggios) is nearby. It was perfect for us.

Overall clean and nice place for a mini stay. On a very busy and loud road. Easy to get into Boston or around the area.

Property exactly as described. It is on a busy street as was noted so the ability to pull out forward was very helpful. Comfortable and clean and conveniently located. Would stay there again!

We loved our stay here. It’s a great place for 2 at best with easy access to Harvard Square, Boston, and other locations in the area. Victor and his wife were available for assistance and guidance, and are quite friendly. The street is busy so there is a lot of traffic noise if the windows are open. We would definitely stay here again.

I was happy with this property. It was convenient to public transportation and a short walk to a grocery, pharmacy, and coffee. The outside stair was a little inconvenient for my wife who had suffered a stroke in the past year. We managed and enjoyed our stay.

Nice area to stay in. Didn't use the kitchenette but nice to have the option.

The studio apartment was conveniently located and had everything we needed for a weekend stay. Surprisingly quiet, given that the street is four lanes and quite busy, although residential, and warm inside while it was below zero outside.

The nearby Fresh Pond park is great for running and biking. The living space is ample for one or two people. It’s on a busy road. The kitchen lacks counter space. I thrifted several pieces of cookware that I left there, so it is now pretty well equipped. The owners are nice and helpful.

Quaint stay near Boston
Victor let us check in early since we were traveling from NY. We loved our stay. Close to Boston but not noisy since it’s not on the T route. It had everything we could need.

This is the spot!
This place was absolutely perfect for myself and my husband on our 10th wedding anniversary trip. It had more than we needed because had brought non-cookable items to eat for breakfast and dined out for dinner. It was good knowing if we had decided to cook something it was still an option. The location was excellent. I loved that there was a window unit for AC! It was not terribly hot during our stay but I like to sleep in very cold temps. The bed was super comfortable. Never met Victor face to face but he was always very friendly when corresponding and rather quick when responding! If I ever find my way up to the Boston area I couldn’t imagine staying anywhere else.

Great location
It is a cosy apartment with a convenient location - close to mass transit, parks and Harvard square. Don’t count on the laundry though, was not available when I needed it during the evening and early in the morning. Apartment itself could have been a lot cleaner - found dirty socks from the previous renter right next to the dresser and the floor was too grimy to walk barefoot. Beds were very comfortable and linens were clean Though. The location was really convenient for where we needed to go - so served our purpose really well!

Very charming apartment
Place was nice. Deck was great. Neighboring renters were loud and up all night so sleeping was hard. But the place was a nice place to stay.

Really cute little place but roomy enough for us and baby Kruze. And the hosts were very gracious and friendly.
