The house was clean, nicely decorated and CONVENIENT to where we needed to be (Winthrop University and the Oratory). We were only there to sleep and eat breakfast. It was very nice with no real problems. It was a quiet neighborhood (no dogs barking through the night as a few reviews stated). You could hear the early morning train (thus the house's name) but it was in the distance and I found it comforting not annoying. I don't think it would even wake an infant. Maybe next time we will have time to explore the area. ❤️

We stayed here for our son's college graduation. It was a perfect resting place - great porch, lovely decor, super comfy beds, and 1.5 baths. We would definitely stay here again!

The house is cute. Inside was clean but two of three bed were squeaky. Lots of towels in the bathroom which is always nice. Kitchen had lots of things, but we never cooked. But the outside needs attention. We are sitting on the front porch, but cushion was filled with leaves. Had to shake them off before sitting down. The house could also use power washing and getting rid of spiderwebs in windows.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay, but the 3rd bedroom next to the kitchen could use a new mattress. It squeaked if you put a suitcase on it much less a person. Also found that not all electric outlets were updated to 3 prong outlets which didn’t work well for CPAP machines and such. But to be clear we enjoyed our stay at the Loco Motive.

Cute little house for our family while we were in town for a sports tournament! It was a good “home base”, yet I would not have wanted to stay with all of us for a whole week. One of the “bedrooms” was in what would normally be a dining room and there was little privacy for those folks. Parking was good, just a little tight for wide vehicles. It was clean (except the thick dust on all the ceiling fans). The welcome snacks were a great addition! It was a quiet, safe neighborhood and morning coffee on the front porch was perfect! We walked to a local beautiful park. We would stay again for another tournament weekend.

We left this property early after staying one sleepless night. We had 2 small children with us and the location of the home was a little sketchy. There was a shelter of some sort less than 1/4 of a mile away with 20+ homeless men sitting on the curb. We passed this on our way to the home. The neighbors partied very loudly until 4 am. You could hear them from every area in the house. As previous guests have mentioned, they have a dog chained up that barks incessantly. The response I got from the host was lacking when I let them know we would be checking out early. “ I’m so sorry. We occasionally have this problem, some family members must be home for the holidays.” I hate leaving bad reviews (truly) but I just wanted to save someone else the trouble of having to move to a hotel.

The house is beautiful! Larger than the pictures show too. Loved the high ceilings. The bed was more comfortable than our own bed at home. Communication from the owners was great with very quick responses. Great quiet location. Would love to book here again next visit to the area!

The house is ok, pretty nicely renovated, though the middle bedroom has a very loud lumpy mattress and is in the front room's path to any toilet. The main problem is the dog next door, who yelped a good bit every night. It is cruelly chained with a super heavy chain, so no blame on it. This isn't this owner's fault either.
