A great stay
It was a perfect spot for our recent trip to Boston. It was exactly as advertised and worked perfectly for our bachelor party. The host made check-in seamless and was very accommodating for any request we had. The proximity to the tavern below train was also a major plus.

Fenway Bowl Stay
Our whole family (12 adults ages 20-77) stayed here and it was perfect for our purpose. Check-in was easy as host was available and accommodating and everything we needed was in the rental. Host arranged for parking and we found the bar downstairs perfect for dinner and celebrating UConn’s win at Fenway.

A great place for friends to meet in Boston!
The staff was great and the food and service at the bar were great. The hospitality and communication were also excellent. There was enough room for our group of 8, and overall we found it had everything we needed. There is also a Dunkin Donuts and liquor store right across the street. The apartment is slightly dated, but considering it’s above a bar and you have checked the reviews, I feel like you know what your getting. Again, its above a bar that stays open until 2:00 A.M. every night. It was great for us, but if you are a light sleeper, earplugs would be advised. I brought them for the group, and some used them and others not. No complaints.
We used Uber so didn’t explore the transit system. Overall, we were conveniently in every place we wanted to be in the city with no problems. Again, its above a great bar with great staff and great food. It’s a little loud at night, but as long as you know the bar disclaimer, then book this place for a great time and great place to congregate after exploring Boston!

Long Weekend in Boston
Group of 13 men staying in Boston for the weekend. The apartment was perfect. Bedrooms were ideal and the pool table, juke box and darts provided plenty of fun. The staff downstairs at the bar could not have been more helpful and we ended up spending most evenings in the bar till close! Would highly recommend to a group looking for a fun weekend in Boston!

Great spot for a boys trip!
Couldn’t be happier with our booking, we had 13 guys for a bachelor trip, and it was perfect! There is everything you need close by, and a two minute walk to the train that takes you downtown. Smooth process of working with the owner, and tavern at the end of the world bar right below us was a crowd favorite! they had live music on Thursday night, so that is the only time you could really hear the bar from the space above. Would definitely return with a larger group to this spot!

Awesome
From the minute we walked in and met Paul we were off to a good start. The place was stocked well, clean & spacious. The staff downstairs at bar was MORE than accommodating to everyone that stayed in the house. Easy commute nearby - comfortable neighborhood to walk around in (We're from Philly). 10 out of 10. The live music can be heard through apartment, but we were there for that so NO Complaints here! Thank you everyone that we interacted with. You made our stay that much more enjoyable and Again, Special Shout Out to Paul! We'll be back to wreck his head again. :)

Bachelorette weekend in Boston
This was the perfect spot for my bachelorette party!! The bar below helped with anything we needed and when I let the owner know the current coffee machine was not working, a new one was at the bottom of the steps not even 2 hours later. The house has SO many extra supplies which some rentals do not (towels, paper plates, sheets, toilet paper etc). There was no worrying about being quiet because we were on top of a bar and we were so close to the T line which helped us get around all weekend. I definitely recommend for a fun filled weekend!!

Weekend with friends
Lots of individual beds for a group of friends. About a five minute walk to the Orange line so really easy to get downtown. It's over a bar so there is noise into the early morning until it closes but the listing made it clear it was over a bar so it was expected from our group. Plus, they had earplugs in the cabinet just in case you needed them. Overall, a good stay with friends.

A great place to stay!
We had a group of 12 and everyone loved it. There were enough beds for more people too. The unit was nice looking, clean, and well stocked with everything. We played pool, darts, and ping pong in the unit. The owners were very responsive before and during our stay. The unit is over a tavern as the ad states. The bartenders were ready to help us with anything we needed. We didn't really need anything but ice though. Everyone working at the Tavern was very nice. When we would go down to eat or drink, they always asked if we needed anything upstairs. We left there with new friends. The location is fantastic. A short walk to the T. Only a 10 minute ride to downtown. Dunkin across the street. Food and drinks downstairs. A liquor store next door. We walked to a wonderful place for brunch on Sunday for Mothers Day, called The Tradesman. The Tavern also had a great brunch Saturday and Sunday. There is a casino that is a short bus ride away. You can see it from the unit. There is no way we could have found a better place for our large group. We celebrated a graduation, two birthdays, and Mother Day. We can't wait to go back!
