We had a wonderful stay. The host was very accommodating. The property was extremely clean. The location is extremely close to the bus line which gets you to the subway orange line very quickly. I had never ridden a subway before and was able to figure out the system to this location with ease.The property was also extremely quiet. Nice selection of quick dining options close by.

We enjoyed our stay at Claudia and Tim’s place. It is just like the pictures on the website. Our main complaint was the stairs down into the basement apartment. They are very narrow and there is no railing. (To be honest, there’s really no room for one.) There is a landing that you step on and around the door to turn on a light switch to help you see to go down the stairs. If you come in at night like we usually did, you have to be careful you don’t miss a step reaching around for the switch. (We started just leaving it on.) It is also hard to get up and down these stairs with luggage.

We were looking for a place to stay when we visit our granddaughter. Location was just what we were looking for. However, the beds were terrible. We only needed a place to sleep and one bed was a lumpy mattress and the other was a coil box spring covered with a thin mattress pad. The shower was all very small. We are not large people but there was no room to even turn around. It was about 2’ by 3’. We will not be returning on out next trip.

This apartment was a perfect home base for me for a stay centered in Somerville. Clean, quiet, walkable. The 89 bus is minutes away and gets you to Davis Square easily and from there you can go anywhere.

Arriving was difficult because it is a very dark street and hard to read or even see the house numbers. The light at the door of the apartment is motion sensor so the light was off when I arrived and I couldn’t see where I was going. Had to call Claudia to find the door. The television had terrible reception and I could only watch maybe three or four channels regularly and they don’t pay for cable. Normally that is fine but the reception was terrible. Couldn’t even watch the Celtics game. Lots of stomping upstairs. At time it sounded like furniture was being dragged on the floor. It was loud and annoying during my stay. Found two centipedes in the bathroom the third day I was there. Made sure I wore slippers in the apartment. Lastly, need a car to get around to places to eat. Took a lot of Ubers. Wouldn’t stay here again.

The property very small, especially the bathroom. The shower was the same size as one from a travel trailer. The beds were comfortable enough-that was nice. Communicating with the difficult. I had asked about good places to eat around the area and never heard from them. They did leave us some potato chips and tea bags though. Next time we’ll stay somewhere else.

My daughter and I stayed here while I helped her move back in to Northeastern about 5 miles away. Claudia and Jim's small lower level flat was perfect for us as a home-base to get to and from campus quickly. Also, nicely within walking distance of Somerville restaurants and parks. Overall, very clean and quiet and Jim and Claudia were easy to communicate with and helpful with any questions we had. I would definitely consider staying here again under similar circumstances

Just what we needed.

Just what we needed.

This was the second time that we have stayed in this property. We were in town to help our son and daughter-in-law with child care for the week. They don't have the room for us in their home, so this was the perfect spot for us. It is a 15 minute walk between this property and our son's. My wife was able to nanny at their place while I stayed behind and worked remotely. The internet is good and the place, overall, is comfortable. The owners are very nice and accomodating.
