Good place, just as listed
We had a great stay in this home. Close enough to walk to some good restaurants/shops. Quick drive to central Boston. The interior is just as pictured in the VRBO listing. Normally I wouldn't book a place with no reviews, but thankfully this one worked out great. Check in codes worked great until our last night when they were prematurely changed. We were able to reach the Plushy management in Arizona, who contacted the owner. It was late at night, but the owner was friendly and got us into the house. We were given an extra hour to check out in exchange for the inconvenience. Great place for a group that wants to be close, but not THAT close.

Nice place near downtown Boston
The units located in a residential area. Units were extremely clean and nicely decorated. Beds were comfortable. Kitchen fully stocked. Keurig coffee maker (actually makes hot coffee). Complimentary coffee, creamer, assorted of teas, and sugar. Units located walking distant to a grocery store, eateries, etc. Bus line steps away to take you into downtown Boston. I would suggest checking out Lyft/Uber driver for it was about the same price for four people. Enjoyed sitting on the front porch talking about the eventful fun day we had while watching the cars go by.
