Photos and Description of this 2 bedroom holiday apartment in Boston - An Extra Bed...
2 bedrooms, 1 bathroom, sleeps 4 maximum

PLEASE NOTE: THIS AD HAS NEVER BEEN POSTED ON CRAIGSLIST.

1,200 square feet of living space this fully-furnished apartment is located on the second floor of a charming brick two-family home located 5 miles North of Boston (8.2 miles/13 minutes to Logan Airport) in Medford, MA.

This home is artistically decorated with light colored walls, bright furniture and beautiful artwork. My family occupies the first floor of the home. The 2nd floor is an extension of our home offering you a friendly, warm, comfortable environment in which to come home.

Enjoy a relaxing retreat which includes a Living Room, Dining Room, Full Kitchen w/eat-in Nook, two bedrooms and one full bathroom (one bedroom with Queen-size bed and the other with two Twin beds).

A deck is located off the back of the house. (The Sun Porch in the unit is locked-off as it is my office).

This home is close to Downtown Boston, Fenway Park and major colleges (Tufts University is 1 mile away)

Family Vacation: Come visit Boston and enjoy all that it has to offer. Use this home as your 'home-base' and explore the surrounding areas. Take a boat to Provincetown at the tip of Cape Cod, the train to New York City for a Broadway show, or rent a car and drive to Kittery for outlet shopping, a lobster dinner or a walk on the beach. You are in a perfect location to explore what Boston has to offer at an affordable rate.

Corporate Housing: Relocation can be difficult, especially when you can't take your family with you - at first. Being comfortable in your surroundings is important when you move into a new city. We know you'll feel comfortable and at home with the spacious surroundings and friendly neighbors.

Events in Boston: If you have a wedding, convention, looking at colleges in the area or another special occasion to visit Boston - this home is a wonderful place to come and stay with your friends and family. Please be aware - this is not a 'party house' - please respect our wishes.

Better than home from home.

Review Submitted: 10 January 2013 Date of Stay: December 2012
This was such a wonderful relaxing stay. Rosemarie the owner has definitely thought of absolutely everything and then some!

Our youngest daughter really enjoyed watching the videos and our elder daughter has loved having the extra space (especially the nook!).

We felt so comfortable we wish we could have stayed for longer.

Truly loved the home, Medford and Boston and hope to return.

Fantastic stay in the Boston Area

5 out of 5
Review Submitted: 28 November 2012 Date of Stay: October 2012
Last month, we (three adults) had the pleasure of staying in this beautiful apartment for a week. The location was great - a couple of minutes walk to Medford centre and easy access to public transport into Boston. We had hired a car as we wanted to do some day trips around New England as well and we never had a problem finding parking on the street and were very close to a number of highways and interstates going north, south and west of Boston.

The apartment was a real home away from home in every way. It came equipped with everything we could possible need - we were truly amazed as Rose had thought of everything. The beds were very comfortable and the shower had the best power of almost any shower I've experienced - you just didn't want to get out of it! The safety deposit box was a comfort too and it was easily big enough to hold a regular laptop, SLR camera, etc.

I found everything in the listing to be accurate and the apartment was very clean and well kept. Having travelled from Ireland we didn't have access to data on our phones due to the expense of roaming and having access to the free wifi whenever we were in the apartment was great.

What else can I say but that I would recommend this apartment to family and friends without reservation. My only wish is that we could go back tomorrow.

This really was a fantastic option and we couldn't have been happier that we found this place and that we were lucky enough that it was free the week that we were travelling.

Thanks again Rose for everything, and I'm sorry this took me so long to do!

Best wishes
Martina

Our stay here was only a short one, but we very much appreciated the "home from home" feel of your apartment. We are very impressed by your attention to detail, and hope to return at some stage.

Lovely Apartment Just Outside Boston

5 out of 5
Review Submitted: 17 September 2012 Date of Stay: August 2012
Fantastic, comfortable apartment in Medford just outside Boston. Easy to get to Boston via public transport or car (though parking in downtown Boston we found was prohibitively expensive). The apartment has everything our family of 4 (2 adults and 2 16-year-olds needed). We enjoyed our breakfasts out on the deck at the back of the property. Beds were very comfy. Nice also to have so many towels. The owner Rose supplied lots of little extras -- shampoo, shower stuff, tea, coffee. Plus advice on good things to see in the area. We very much enjoyed our stay in Medford and would not hesitate to recommend to friends and family and will definitely return if we are in the Boston area. It was nice to be able to just walk down the road into Medford to eat in the evening. Rose recommended a lovely Thai restaurant just 5 minutes' walk away.

Review Submitted: 17 September 2012 Date of Stay: June 2012
Apologises to Rosemarie for not submitting this review before, it is not a reflection of how our stay went.
Rosemarie was very helpful and professional prior to confirming our booking and throughout the whole process leading up to our arrival and throughout our stay. The apartment was just as described and was ideal for our needs, myself, husband and two adult children. It was spotlessly clean and very well equipped with plenty of towels, toiletries if you needed them, tin foil, cling film etc in the kitchen, not to mention a bowl of sweets and some soft drinks and milk in the fridge.
Good location for visiting Boston city, either drive or got the bus to the local MBTA station and could be in the centre in 40 mins door to door. Also took the bus into Harvard which was an enjoyable trip with a guided tour of the University.
We hired a car and parking near the apartment was never a problem. Having a car enabled us to explore further afield, I would recommend a day trip to Rockport and the North shore stopping off at Woodman's of Essex on the way home for some fried clams. The Minute Man Historical Park is also a great day out away from the city. In the city itself follow the Freedom Trail, taking time to explore as you go and we thought a Fenway Park stadium tour was also a must.
We thoroughly enjoyed our week in Boston which was at least in part to the comfort of this rental which is one of the best we have stayed in.
