Gorgeous High End Charlestown Home -Hot Tub on Rooftop Deck, Trampoline & More!

We truly enjoyed our stay. The home was a home- meaning it wasn't generic and didn't feel like an impersonal hotel. The location was great and we easily walked to North Shore and caught public transportation to other areas. Loved the owners vinyl record collection. The host allowed usage and as an engaging and unique way to connect, welcomed additions. Something to note that may be noted already somewhere but that I missed when booking: there are stairs required for all bedrooms. If you have issues with stairs, you may need to find another place, but if you don't, this one is a charmer.

The house was very nice. No dish soap. No shower soap. The major problem is that the owner did not leave us a parking permit. There is no parking available at all around the house. If you want to park your car, you will have to move it every two hours and in the morning you must move the car by 8 AM. We had to find a public parking lot and park our car there for the rest of the visit and take Ubers everywhere. The owner should have gotten a temporary parking permit for us, but we had no idea that this was the parking situation until we got there. We should have been told upfront in the description of the home before renting. The two bunk beds are quite small for adults.

We had a wonderful stay at this VRBO—highly recommended for families with kids! The location was fantastic, close to everything we wanted to see and do. The rooftop hot tub was a highlight, with incredible views that we enjoyed in the evening. My daughter loved the trampoline, the toys provided, and the park just one block away was perfect for her to play. The home had everything we needed to cook meals comfortably, and the beds were very comfortable. The AC worked well, and having three TVs was a nice bonus for downtime. The neighborhood was quiet, private, and very walkable. I highly recommend this home!

This is a great house with fantastic air conditioning, which was really crucial because we were in Boston during a horrendous heat wave. I only have a couple of issues. First, the house is on what is basically an alley, not a street, and there is no parking available nearby. We did not know this when we booked as the listing says Parking available. We ended up booking a space in a garage just over a mile away. Not a big deal unless the heat index is near 100 degrees, which it was, and the listing should be clearer about this issue. And this was a shock: there was NO COFFEE. There was a coffee maker, but no pods for it. Even a cheap motel these days has a couple of pods for the Keurig, and indeed there were tea pods. But no coffee. We ended up walking a few blocks to an excellent coffee bar each of the two mornings we were there, but it just felt very stingy that the host couldn't supply a few lousy pods for what we were paying per night. Note that towel storage is haphazard and you may have to dig around the closets for what you need. The housekeeper does not put out sets for the guests and finding a washcloth was a bit of a treasure hunt. Other than that, we enjoyed our two nights and the neighbor lady is a genuine treat. In fact, everyone we encountered in our whirlwind tour of Boston was super pleasant. Can't wait to go back.

Great house. Cute location.

Very comfortable and clean. Great home away from home. Pull out sofa bed in lower level 3rd bedroom was the most comfortable pull out bed I’ve ever slept on. Kids beds are a bit small for tall teenagers, but did the trick well. Note that the property listing states parking available- and on weekdays that means a 2-hr parking spot on the street or metered parking nearby. Gregg was very timely in his responses to any questions we had.

Truly wonderful property for a family with plans to stay in Boston and travel by foot, T, and Uber. Fit us well, but the third bedroom is really best for kids… a bit of a squeeze for an adult (22 year old) kid. Still, loved walking to Bunker Hill, the USS Constitution, Warren Tavern, and the North End. The neighbors are nice and the home is by a park with a nifty neighborhood coffee shop (Mr. Q’s) and pizza joint (Johnny Pomodoro) just a few blocks away.

Beautiful home in an incredible location. Our family of five (3 teenage boys included) had plenty of room. Loved the rooftop hottub at night. Gregg is a very responsive host. Highly recommend!

The house was very nice as advertised. My family of four was very comfortable. The roof top hot tub was a great way to unwind after a long day walking around Boston!

We enjoyed staying here very much! The location was great. We chose to Uber instead of renting a car and I’m glad we did. Parking is very limited and the Uber drivers were always available within minutes. The house is clean and well stocked. The beds were very comfortable. Greg was very easy to work with and responded quickly. We’d stay here again.
