8/10
Pros: Nice size; walking distance to Blue Line train station (Orent Heights); decent price.Cons: Had to call for check-in information and that was a circus. Called "host" and was told by and answering service (I think) to call Vrbo. Called Vrbo and was told to call host. Call host and was told they would get back to me. Finally was texted lock box code and incorrect wifi password. After questioning that password was told that that it was all lower case. By day 2 (stayed 4 nights) it was clear the central air wasn't working. Let the host know and they said someon would be out the next day to look at it. No one ever came out so the central heat and air never worked. Weather was mild so no big deal.Also, no table of seating in large kitchen space. Would have been nice to have a table or dinette.Finally, the Blue Line trains were shut down the week we visited Boston. That meant riding a bus to the downtown which added a lot of time to travel. Buses used surface streets and made mutliple stops making probably 20 minute commute into downtown an hour plus each way. Probably not the host's fault, but if you are advertising proximity to train station the fact that the trains are down for scheduled maintenance would be nice to know when deciding on a location.I would recommend this place, but not ahead of trying something else. I guess as a first time Vrbo user this was disappointing.
