Positive: accessibility to the center Negative: What we didn't like was unfortunately very much. I don't know if my minor children. I have to force them to ride the elevator, which is shaking AND has failed inspections.I don't know if it's normal to offer guests a room where on one side there are dredging and compressors running at 2:00 PM every day and on the other side there is ventilation from a shopping center, where there is a lot of noise 24 hours a day, 7 days a week and it's impossible to sleep there.The front door to the house is damaged, it cannot be opened. It cannot be opened electronically. This means that it is open for half the day, with a cone and can go home, who wants the negatives were significantly more and I don't understand how someone can charge more than $1,000 for three nights.Of course, I immediately contacted the intermediary, which is Booking, who was not able to answer me even after three days.

It takes a lot for us to give a 2 star review, but felt we had to share our terrible experience. We had reached out to the hosts prior to arrival based on other reviews regarding not providing enough toilet paper, soap, shampoo, towels, etc for our 9 day stay. They assured us all was taken care of and everything would be great. We arrived at midnight to an apartment that had no toilet paper (not even on the dispenser), no paper towels, no hand soap, body soap nor shampoo. The kitchen trash can had no bag in it. We messaged host and he said he would let the "team" know and sent us to another floor to get some of these items ourselves when this should have been there already. The couch was broken, which they knew about from someone else's review and blatantly obvious as soon as you walk in. When I messaged about it, they said thank you for letting us know, we will let the team know. We still had 7 days left on our stay and they didn't offer to fix it. I messaged again and said they needed to replace it because we had no where to sit. The host was quick to blame "the team" even though, he is part of the team. They brought another couch in 2 days later (which wasn't comfortable, but at least not broken). Additionally, they advertise the space for 4 people, but there are only two chairs at the kitchen island to sit in. No dining table. They do not provide oil, salt & pepper as advertised. The kitchen is not well stocked. There is no cutting board, no kitchen knives, not enough pans, no bakingware. The beds are extremely uncomfortable. We woke up with back aches every morning. The worst beds we have ever slept in. The bedroom by the front door, is useless. The pipes running through it kept us up most nights. You can hear all the water running through it very loudly, especially when it rained. There are a lot of homeless people outside the apartment complex and in the area. We also saw several rats everyday and night right outside the building. We saw a drug transaction going on right outside the building once and another one as you turn the corner real close to the building. When I messaged the host about safety, he replied there is a security guard on site. We only saw a man one time, with a t-shirt that said "security" on it. We were there 9 days, but only saw this "alleged" security guard one time. As far as location, it was really close to the Commons; however, based on our experience of this particular apartment, it was not worth our stay. The negatives outweighed any potential positives.
First the good. The location is amazing. Right across from the Commons. Lots of shops and restaurants a short walk away. The bad- The worst is one of the bedrooms has a roof drain running through it that on rainy nights makes you feel like you are sleeping under a waterfall. Nearly makes the room unsleepable. The drains leaked on our heads 1a and we were up hours trying to move the bed and put something to catch the water. The couch in the living room is the worst ever. So uncomfortable sitting on the wood floor was a better option. No dining table. You can sit two at a time at kitchen stools and eat. You only get four paper thin towels for a five night stay. Very few pots and pans, dishes or silverware. Luckily I brought a pocketknife to cut veggies. We couldn't cook in the oven as there was no pans we could use. This with a few improvements could be a first rate Loft worthy of what they charge.
The answers are quick, but unfortunately I was deceived and the apartment was not the same as the ad I paid. When I booked the place I made it clear to the hosts that I was going to work, and that I chose the apartment for the decoration of the advertisement and that I would like to photograph customers on the spot. At first it seemed to be very good, I was charged an extra photo fee which I sent to the venmo in the amount of $ 250. Upon arriving at the apartment he was not the same one I booked. I sent messages messages to the hosts and what they answered was that the apartment of the advertisement that I booked, had other guests and that it had an error. At that time I was left with no option, and with an apartment that I did not choose, paying $ 1400 including the photo fee for a totally different location from the photos. After all this, even responding quickly to the only solution that the hosts gave me was to give me a voucher that I never received for $ 250. I found it extremely unfair after all this error that they did not even return the fee I paid for photos, since the place I booked for my work was not what I would like. I was asked for 5 stars but Im sorry out, I am very disappointed to lie about it. My work is super serious and I didn't like what happened at all. They also charged a high cleaning fee, and the kitchen counters and the floor were dirty, which doesn't make much sense. I feel very disappointed in relation to everything that happened !
I’m so sad to have to write my first negative Air BnB review :(. The apartment that we stayed in was not at all what was pictured. Parking was a major red flag as they didn’t include the extra charge in the description and hid this info under “health and safety.” We found this out after driving 4 hours and asking where to pick up our passes, to be told that it’s an extra charge and said we’d have to pay via Venmo. The TV either has no cable or wasn’t working. After the fact, we found that the apartment they put us in is actually a separate listing is significantly cheaper per night.
There were some positives about the room, like its spaciousness and the convenient location with lots to do nearby. However, there were some issues that made the stay less than ideal. Firstly, the building seemed to be undergoing renovations, with a lingering unpleasant smell upon entering. Additionally, there were hairs on the pillows in both rooms, which was not a pleasant discovery. The most bothersome issue was the loud noise from water running through pipes during a rainstorm on the second night. While my friends were fine, it kept me awake until the early morning. Despite these drawbacks, the host was responsive to our concerns. Overall, it wasn’t a pleasant experience.
The construction was subtly disclosed but note that the entire lobby is under construction completely gutted and one of our guests was bit by a venomous spider and sent to hospital during our stay presumably due to the construction. AirBNB was great with assisting with communication with the host, and the host was consistently responsive throughout our stay. Over half the showers were cold with no hot water despite time of day. The thermostat in the room was locked with a pin and is controlled remotely/digitally and during the night the host is adjusting the temperature to allow it to drop to 40 degrees in the middle of winter! Being in an alley wouldn’t have been my first choice but this is a great location, the apartment itself isn’t bad and is as pictured, but I wish there were pictures of the lobby, outdoor view, elevators, etc. great location for downtown Boston close to public transport. I wouldn’t book here if needing to drive the parking is expensive and scarce.
Listing notes “on-site” parking in the Title Header, insinuating there Is on-site parking included. It is available for $40 extra a night and you have to ask. Totally miss-leading advertisement. Charged extra $20 for extra person, yet leading a 2-bedroom at premium price. I was trying to board a plane in Denver to Boston, still no entry information. I had to call VRBO to get them to call them to send me entry information as I was facing boarding a plane without confirmation of entry. (I messaged 2 times and they never replied) Comcast on Single TV (NO TV in either Bedroom) was not working. I was in 4 different email strings with 4 different people attempting to try to give me information to activate the TV. NO PHONE number to call. After about a dozen emails and over 2 hours of messing with TV, finally someone called me (as I had VRBO on the phone and was going to leave) There are pipes above your head that sound like pipes breaking with water gushing out for periods of 2-4 hours at a time. Sounds like Niagara Falls over your head at 1am in the morning. When I asked to leave, frustrated over no TV, they refused to assist, told me I would be responsible for cleaning, etc. Overall, management communication is horrible. Should be a red flag when they do not leave a phone number for you to contact. (Side note, no on-site luggage storage for late flights. So I had to check out at 11 with a 6pm flight. They referred me to luggage service, they were closed.) overall very poor service. Nice location and unit was clean.
I didn't stay here. I booked it by accident and there was absolutely no grace from the host with their very strict and firm cancellation policy. There was also an absurd cleaning fee. Good on them for having firm boundaries and it was my mistake for pressing book too hastily; however, 24-hours grace would've been nice. Heck, even 10 minutes would've been nice since I realized my mistake immediately. If you're going to stay with this host be incredibly sure before booking.
Excellent location but run down interior with multiple missing/broken fixtures and window blinds. Terrifically dirty windows. Had problems with both toilets and host was very responsive but issues persisted. Chose the unit for its two bathrooms but one was usually out of commission with my poor husband working to fix it. Clean but very loud at night with window a/c units but thankfully comfortable linens and beds. Large living space. Could be great with some basic investment to upgrade bathrooms and fixtures.
