This is a great place to be based out of. We were able to walk most of the city from this location. Everything one might need is close by. The unit is very nice and worked well for all three of us. It should be noted there is no stove or cooktop, just a microwave. Ingrid was easy to communicate with everything was as advertised.

The space was perfect for a group of 3 friends to enjoy the city. The location is perfect and the neighborhood is fantastic. Clean and well stocked (minus a pot/pan to cook on the supplied table top single unit stove). The washer and dryer is a BIG plus for vacationing! Thank you for the lovely stay!! Highly recommend!

Our family loved this neighborhood. I could walk to my conference at Copley place and the subway was right around the corner. We enjoyed the local food and shopping. We’ll be back Ingrid!! :)

This is a fantastic location in Boston. We were able to walk most everywhere. Blackout curtains, coffee, a fan, and a good shower head were highly appreciated. Just a FYI- there is no “breakfast” despite the listing title. Most everything a couple would need for a few days.

This small apartment was absolutely wonderful, with everything we needed. A charming, central location, a lovely interior, a cozy bed, and a very responsive and helpful owner. The space was perfect for a couple. We could not be happier with our stay and would highly recommend!

Wonderful location, pleasant accommodations, awesome host. My son and I thoroughly enjoyed our stay in Southend, we both fell in love with Boston…especially the Red Sox. This rental is conveniently located near the Back Bay Station making it easy to get around town on the train lines. This is the place to stay in Boston!

This apartment comfortably slept the four of us--two adults, a teen, and a tween. The building is beautiful on a quiet, tree-lined street in Back Bay. We loved exploring the neighborhood (with recommendations from our great host) as well as easily accessing the local T station, which brought us to all the local sites. We put our car in a local garage and did not need it once over the course of our five-day stay. It is worth noting for those with accessibility issues that there are quite a few steps up to the entrance. Overall, this was a great experience for us!

This was a great place to stay while in Boston for a college graduation. Location is walking distance to so many things. Transit station is just down the street, getting you anywhere in Boston. Would love to stay again for even longer and enjoy the neighborhood more.

My wife and I with two adult sons stayed and had a wonderful weekend! The apartment is comfortable and has everything needed. It was walkable to so many things to see in Boston and also close to transit stations. The host was easy to reach and very responsive. We would stay here again if we come back to Boston!

Had to cut the trip short, but the unit is wonderful. Really great location, fantastic neighborhood, place was cute and comfy and not too small. The access communication was way better than most, with information on getting in being clear and available well ahead of time.

We loved the charm of the apartment and everything that the owner supplied to make our stay cozy. The only problem we had was the strong marijuana odor from the neighbors who lit up throughout the day and evening. Unfortunately, there was nothing the owner could do about it.

We had a wonderful time staying at Ingrid's townhome. The townhome was very clean, had plenty of quality amenities, and fun comfortable décor. The walkability was excellent. We never got in a car! Close to so many sites to see in Boston. We hope we get another chance to stay soon!

There were 3 of us, so we did use the pull out bed. I recommend you make available a thick mattress cover, maybe one of those egg carton ones. The pull out was not very comfortable but we were able to live with it.
The rest of the parlor suite was great. Close enough to walk to several restaurants.
Thank you! And thank you Erik for your help with the key that first evening.

It was a very convenient location, very easy to check in and perfect for our needs. We had our son on the pull-out couch which was quite comfortable and still enough room to move around

The apartment was comfortable and accommodating for a tourist visit. There were a few rough edges, but overall nice. Good location and nice safe neighborhood. Easy to walk to Back Bay attractions and to subway.

Absolutely Perfect. Awesome neighborhood. So close to the T and walking distance of many attractions. The unit was updated and very comfortable. It was just the two of us so we didn’t use the pull out couch but the bed was great. Having a washer and dryer for clothes was PHENOMENAL! Would love to stay at this rental again if we ever revisit Boston. 10/10 recommend

Loved this place! Very sweet, charming comfortable place to stay while taking our daughter to college. Location was perfect too. Tried to book it for my next stay-sadly, it was already booked!

The location of this property is superb - only a short walk into the city. It is pretty compact but what you miss in space you gain in having the opportunity to stay in a historical treasure. There is a very handy cafe on the corner of the street which we used for an excellent breakfast.
The only thing I would change is replacing the large lamps on the tables next to the bed with smaller versions to enable phones, books etc to be stored there overnight.

thank you, beautiful and great location for us!
