10/10 Excellent

"Great location! Just what we needed for a quick visit."

Cozy 2-bedroom house in charming Medford with AC

10/10 Excellent

"The property is in a great location, very spacious, clean, and comfortable. The owner is an excellent communicator and very accommodating. Highly recommended!"

Cozy 4BR Home by Tufts w/ Subway Access to Downtown, MIT, Harvard + Free Parking

8/10 Good

"Pros:Quiet neighborhood.The house had the basic essentials needed for a comfortable stay.A driveway was available for parking, so parking was never an issue.The host was very responsive and friendly.Beds and indoor temp were comfortable.Cons:The driveway was very narrow, and the large shrub at the entrance made parking difficult, especially when backing in. The branches also scratched the side of the car each time we parked.The listing did not clearly state that the unit was on the second floor. There were instructions to be mindful of the first-floor neighbors, including quiet hours from 10 p.m. to 7 a.m. and gentle footfalls. This was difficult because the house is very old and the floors creak loudly throughout, even with careful walking.An older review mentioned that the dishwasher was not working, there were no oven mitts or dish towels, and there were small sharp nails near the floor of one bedroom doorway. When we stayed there, those issues had still not been addressed.The cookware was limited. There was one large pot with a lid, one smaller pot without a lid, and two nonstick pans with significant wear to the coating.The reason I did not give fewer stars was because the owner was extremely communicative and timely in his responses. When I asked if the tap water was potable, he recommended that we don't drink it and then he went out of his way to get us bottled water. That makes a huge difference when you are staying at a vacation rental."
