First, the host was very nice and helpful throughout our stay, which we appreciated. The location was also great, with lots of walkable restaurants nearby. As a younger couple visiting Boston for the first time, it was a fun trip but the weather restricted some of the outdoor activities that we could have done. However, there were a few things that were different from what we expected based on the listing photos. The pictures are a bit deceiving, as the first exterior photo shows the main street-facing unit, which makes it seem like that is where you will be staying. In reality, the unit is located in the basement of that building and is only accessible through the back alley.Inside the unit, the ceilings are quite low, and we had to duck when entering. The bed is positioned wall-to-wall, which makes the space feel tight and leaves very little room for belongings.Parking was also somewhat difficult to navigate. While the neighborhood is very walkable, public parking ended up being about a 15-minute walk away, which wasn’t ideal during the winter season.The bathroom layout was unusual, with the toilet and shower in separate spaces. The shower room had a window without a curtain, which was visible from the outside, and the front door is mostly glass, making the interior visible from outside as well.Lastly, since the unit is in the basement, you can hear the tenants upstairs quite clearly. They weren’t intentionally loud, but we could hear most of their movements.
