I greatly enjoyed my stay in this unit. The owner was very helpful during my stay and the location was perfect. The only tricky part was that the shower is tiny and there was major construction occurring next door. Nonetheless, the location of the unit enabled me not to be disturbed by the construction at all.

I travelled for a one week work trip The location was great for me but Beacon Hill is is nice place to be regardless. Janet was lovely and very helpful. I was able to checkin much earlier than advertised as Janet was flexible. I travelled to the office each day so I was really just using the room in the evenings.

I really enjoyed my week stay on River St. The room was great, quiet and air-conditioned. The bed was comfortable, fridge handy, and the location could not be beat. I could have spent forever walking a block to the commons, a few minutes to the train, and a touch further for the esplanade. The shower was very small, but fine for a week. The purpose of my travel was business, and coming back to the place after a 12 hour day at a conference was a welcome retreat. I would happily stay here again, great communication with the host also.

The apartment is very nice, comfortable and extremely well located. Janet has been a very helpful host, always kind and available. I totally recommend!

The property was great! The only thing I will say is definitely take Ms. Henkel’s advice and pack light. The trip up the stairs was harrowing with even a 35 lb bag. The stairs are very narrow and wonky considering they are spiraled and carpeted, but a very doable daily trip up and down. Other than that, this studio apartment is very nice. There was mild confusion with thinking the upstairs room was ours as well, but I think that was on us. It is only the first door you encounter that is yours. For the price, though, this was a very lovely place in a wonderful neighborhood.

We stayed in Beacon Hill for 5 days in late September and thoroughly enjoyed our stay. Janet is a wonderful host and made us feel very welcome. Her home is lovely and had everything we needed. We were surprised by how quiet it was for a central location and were able to get around all the main Boston sites very easily. Would highly recommend for other visitors to the city.

I had to spend one week in Boston for a conference. The apartment is very conveniently located in the heart of Boston. The apartment is very quiet and well furnished. Enjoyed the stay!

Everything is just right for this place. Close to subway and Boston common. Almost all other sites are 15 min walk away.
