Airbnb was in a very convenient location; however, I felt like amenities were lacking. The listing shows it is able to host 16+ guests but we had far less than that and did not have enough towels or trash bags. We asked for some more and it took over a day to actually get them.

Our stay was great! The location was less than 5 minutes from the T station and made getting around very easy. The interior of the house was clean, updated, and there was plenty of room for 10 of us. The host team was great from start to finish, answering all of our questions and helping us get in with ease. I would definitely stay here again!
