Perfect location & amazing owner!!!

This apartment is right where you want to be in Boston. It is within walking distance of food, shopping and most attractions. The apartment is spacious and had plenty of room for all of us. We had a lovely stay and Amy the owner even brought us a Japanese cheesecake which was delicious. She was always available for any questions and was absolutely wonderful! When we come back to Boston, this is where we will stay!

Great apartment — close to everything

Host was communicative, and kept me well informed about the property. Host also provided great directions for getting to the apartment. The space itself is clean, comfortable, and met all of our needs. There is a grocery store, drugstores, multiple restaurants and train stops within a two block radius. We relied on public transportation for this trip, and never missed having a car. We would definitely stay here again!

Fantastic property with easy city access!

We were able to pull together a few days for a family vacation with our older teens/young adult children around a college orientation. The communication with Amy was timely and detail-oriented, the property was clean, well-stocked and well-maintained. The location was wonderful, with easy T access and easy walking to so many parts of the city due to the central location. It was so nice to have a grocery close to pick up a few things to have for breakfast, etc. We hope to stay here again when we return for college visits!

Great location, well placed

We stayed for 3 nights to discover Boston. The accommodation is located in a pedestrian street, very central and close to the metropolitan train. The rooms are great and spacious enough for a group of 6, up to 8. The apartment was clean and ready to use. The owner is really responsive and paying attention to the quality of our stay. We really appreciate the time spent in Boston to discover the downtown and its historic places from there. Now regarding the furnitures and appliances available, as we came from a road trip with comparison with other places, we can rate it honestly only with a 4-star. To reach grade, a better TV that is not freezing in the middle of each show in the living room and better mattress in the 2 main bedrooms would be great. An electric boiler would achieve the mark. Currently the price is a bit dear in regard of these comments to reach the premium level that this place deserves. Be also aware that the 2 main bedrooms are on the street side of the flat, on the 5th floor. No noise from the street but only the loud noise of the fan air conditioning system of the superstore building that is on the other side of the street. Sensitive sleeper must knows this detail. But this is inerrant to big cities.

Super place with a Super Owner

First, the owner Amy was amazing. When arranging when our people would arrive, the plans we told her ended up being almost the exact opposite of what happened due to travel delays. Amy handled this with ease and took care of things so well it really turned what had been a stressful day for me into a really relaxing and successful one. Her help was invaluable. The space is as advertised, but I think it feels bigger than it shows in the pictures. We used the apartment as a meeting place prior to dinnerr, and it easily commodated 7 people in a social situation. We had four spending the night, all comfortably, and could have easily housed 2 more with no decrease in comfort. The unit was extremely usable, with kitchen and washing ammenities for those who may be more inclined to eat in. There is also plenty of seating to gather with friends or family. The location is great. The neighborhood is safe, there is shopping close by and access to several T lines with in 200 feet of the front door. I do think that this place would also be perfect for a family who is looking to experience the history of Boston.. I do not think you can go wrong booking with this owner or in this unit. The next time I come to town, Amy is going to be the first place a look to make a reservation. IN a world where everythng seems to be needlessly difficult, Amy goes out of her way to make things as easy and enjoyable as possible.

5 stars all around for this Boston gem!

From the moment I stepped through the door, I knew I'd made the perfect choice for my Boston stay. This VRBO near the Common is an absolute delight - sparkling clean, beautifully decorated with a cozy charm, and ideally located for exploring the city. Public transportation is practically at your doorstep, making it a breeze to hop on and off the T or grab a quick Uber. And speaking of convenience, you're surrounded by fantastic restaurants, cafes, and shops - no need to go far for a delicious meal or some retail therapy. But the true highlight of my stay was Amy, the owner. She's a gem herself! Incredibly helpful and responsive, she went above and beyond to make sure I had everything I needed and felt welcome. From local recommendations and restaurant tips to quick replies to any questions I had, Amy's communication was top-notch. I truly felt like I was staying in a friend's place, not just a rental. If you're looking for a comfortable, convenient, and charming home base for your Boston adventure, look no further! This VRBO ticks all the boxes, and with Amy's fantastic hospitality, it's truly a 5-star experience. I can't wait to book my next stay!

Family Trip to Boston

Great city accompanied by an amazing place to stay with Amy as your host. We just travelled to Boston for a family vacation and couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay. It’s close to tons of amenities, attractions and the Charlie (which made getting around the city a breeze with a stop just two doors down). The place has tons of room, is well kept and has everything you need when you want to relax after a busy day of touring. All and all we couldn’t have asked for a better place to stay!! If we make it back, we would definitely stay again.

About the host

Host profile image
Hello! My name is Amy and I’m a senior risk analyst working for a financial company in Boston. We love Boston and are so glad that we have opened up our home to guests from far and wide! This is the best city to explore, eat, and enjoy one another's company.

Thank you for considering staying with us during your time in Boston. Whether you’re coming for work, pleasure or to visit family, you’ll love staying at our apartment. It’s a bright modern airy space, with all the amenities you need for the perfect stay. No matter how far you are from, we make Boston your second home! Please feel free to ask me any questions, looking forward to hearing from you!

For longer stays (over 7 days), we offer a decent discount. Please get in touch with me about a discount rate and complimentary cleaning service if you stay over 10 days.

Why they chose this property

The most convenient location in Boston is Downtown Boston, and Downtown Crossing is in the heart of Downtown Boston. It’s especially nice for first-timers who want to be close to all the highlights. This is where it all went down – the Boston Massacre, the Freedom Trail, the Boston Tea Party, and even more important Revolution-era events. From the outside, it looks like it’s all modern skyscrapers, but once you’re in it, you’ll start to notice historic brick buildings like Old State Hall mixed in.

What makes this property unique

Primarily a pedestrian shopping zone, Downtown Crossing is nestled between the financial district, Chinatown, the Boston Common, and various revolutionary-era landmarks peppered throughout the city. Its historic buildings now house a mix of department stores, fashion and discount chains, souvenir shops, and other specialty retailers. Street vendors selling food and knick-knacks and commuters from the nearby subway stations add to the daytime hustle, and office workers from the financial district and students from nearby universities often frequent the upscale restaurants and bars that open during the evening. In the morning, Downtown Crossing is also popular for its array of independent cafes featuring high-quality coffee roasts and unique sandwiches.

Downtown Crossing is also the ideal commuting location, as it’s close to South Station and numerous other subway stations. It’ll be easy to get to any location in the Boston area from here without the need for a car or Uber! We even have Mass Bluebike on our street if you like to bike! Please check out the tour map on my listing!

"It is situated at the heart of Downtown Crossing, the entrance to the train station is less than 10 meters away from the door!! Two major departmental stores, Macy’s and Primark, are just a few steps away, and some major brands are also within walking distance. The Broadway theatre and some entertainment centers were a stone's throw away and Chinatown is also just two blocks away " - quote from one of my guests.
