Holiday rentals with breakfast in Downtown, Boston

Felt like being at home!

Connie’s place was a dream. I loved everything about it: the space, the comfort, the quiet, the location. And Connie herself is wonderful. I could t have imagined a better place to stay for my first time in Cambridge.

The house was very clean and organized. Additional seating in the living room would be nice and kings beds instead of queen size beds would be better. They left snacks and bottle water for us to have which was appreciated, but we found open gallons of beverages and open food packages in the refrigerator. We also questioned the sign in the kitchen stating no cooking allowed. Honestly, that’s why we stay at Airbnb’s Overall, our stay was comfortable.

Christie’s place is such a gem in a big city. Located on a quiet road and close to the subway station which takes you to downtown Boston. The house is immaculate and has everything you need and all is explained upon arrival. Christie is a great host, quick to respond to any questions and is very welcoming. You’d be hard pressed to find a better Airbnb in that price point close to downtown Boston. Highly recommend!

Absolutely perfect stay! The place was spotless, beautifully decorated, and exactly as described—if not better. The host was incredibly responsive, friendly, and made sure everything was smooth from check-in to check-out. The location was ideal, close to everything we needed but still peaceful and quiet. Would 100% stay here again and recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable and hassle-free experience!

Second time staying here. Our favorite place out of all the homes we’ve stayed at. Super clean, comfy beds, and huge kitchen. Karen is very friendly and accommodating. Definitely will be back.

Hospitable host. Made sure breakfast was available every day. The place is beautiful, well decorated. It made me want to stay longer. Donnell is great to talk to, respectful of your privacy, and available if you need anything. I had a great time.

Relaxing, restful, quiet. Bautiful lake / yard view from both our rooms. Water birds. Carol was nice, a good hostess.

This was the cutest place! We all loved the garden space. The deck was very inviting. Rhona was kind enough to leave English muffins and butter for us. The selection of tea was fabulous! The bouquet and house plants made it feel very homey. There was an area close by that had a convenience store, a Dunkin Donuts, and a few decent restaurants. We would stay here again if we come back.

This place was amazing. I would come back here. I feel like we won the Airbnb lottery. It is nice to have a host that is a real person and not a company. This place is well taken care of. 1. It was much larger than I was expecting. 2. It was so clean. Probably the cleanest Airbnb I have been to. 3. There were basics in the cabinets like coffee and creamer ( such a nice touch). and some items in the fridge and freezer which made it really easy to start our day. 4. It was beautifully decorated and the garden was so pretty and nice to take coffee and wine out there. 5. We were here in the spring and it was an easy walk into town(15-20 minutes). We both like walking, but there was a spot for a car if needed. Thank you for such a wonderful time.!!

My family recently stayed for an extended weekend to attend a wedding. This Airbnb was a gem! Kim is a super responsive host, communicative, and checking in often on anything we may need/let us know recommendations, in addition to preparing welcome snacks/refreshments & breakfast items. My family was traveling also with young kids/toddlers and Kim made sure even our youngest felt the most welcome with toys and toddler conveniences. Great location if you are heading into Boston/Cambridge, Logan airport or to the North Shore. Easily walkable to the beach with great sunrise and sunset views. Would recommend staying here again & longer for our next stay!

Big comfortable bed was waiting after your trips round Boston. There was everything you needed for a relaxing stay. Simone was especially helpful with arranging parking for my hire car. Would definitely recommend.

I loved staying here—every little detail was so stylish and cozy, like something out of a magazine. Spotlessly clean, a kitchen that had everything we needed, and the beds? So comfy I didn’t want to get up! Kreemo was the BEST—super quick to reply and just really nice. It’s just a short walk to Lynn Beach, perfect for a stroll or just soaking in the ocean vibes. 100% booking this again next time!

Lavette put a lot of care into making sure her place was very welcoming and thought of lots of little things many bnb hosts do not. Neighborhood was quiet and the bed was as comfy. The kitchen had the basics like oil/spices/cookware which was nice. The towel warmer felt especially luxurious! As others mention, make sure you read the additional rules as there are a handful in addition to the bnb regulars you expect. If you are bringing a guest they will need to make an airbnb account and verify their identity if they have not already, which is not something we’ve been asked in the past, just as a heads up. Overall a lovely place to stay

David & Jenny’s place was exactly as described. We felt welcomed there and their communication was top notch! We had an enjoyable stay and recommend them as hosts!

I used to live in the Boston area, and know what neighborhoods work well when I come back to visit. Watertown is one of them, with the 71 bus to Harvard Square, express bus to downtown Boston, and very nice surroundings reachable by bicycle (Blue Bikes) : Watertown, Belmont, Newton etc. --- so Patrick's location is great. The BnB itself works seamlessly, with Patrick upstairs and two other guests on the ground floor with me. A cleaner comes to tidy. All is provided. Patrick is always reachable. Arrival is easy with a code. Overall, exactly like a B and B is expected to work. Patrick also has full apartment available on the top floor that I would love to use when coming with others.

Absolutely loved my stay and the home was full of so much character and charm! Most of all, I enjoyed our chats. I hope to be back soon!

We absolutely adored the Rajah Room. It was a beautiful space to stay for our one night in Salem and we would definitely book again in the future!

We were just in for a quick evening but everything was communicated very appropriately.

Great value in Boston! Ben and Jane were delightful hosts - eager to share their knowledge of the area. Breakfast was tasty and timed to our request each morning and the house was a beautiful, restful place to spend a few nights. Will be lucky to stay with them again if we are in town!

A+. This place is why I come to Airbnb: unique, immersive, and full of character. I stayed in the Witches Dorm, and it felt like part of the adventure, not just a place to sleep. The decor was rich and authentic, and the common room was so cozy I spent hours writing and reading there. The 2 twin beds were comfy (even for a 6'1" guest.) Hope, the host, is fascinating and has some amazing stories, but also totally respects your space. She keeps the common area well-stocked with snacks, coffee, and drinks, which made mornings and late nights easy. Uber was always available and affordable (~$6–10), making it easy to get around if you don’t feel like walking the scenic 25–30 mins to downtown. The walk downtown can be super varied tho—walking along the coastline one day, thru a park the next, and a myriad of ways down tiny New England streets w cute houses all about the same travel time. My first time in Salem. Felt safe at all hours. Would absolutely stay at this property again. A+

I haven't written an airbnb review in ages, but Joan's place is really special. Great quiet neighborhood a short walk to the train. This space is sublime: an attic with skylights and balcony, shelves of books and comfy couches. Really human. If you must have a kitchen or desk space I'd look elsewhere, but otherwise I want a place like this everywhere I go.

I enjoyed my stay at Natalie’s place. Not only is she a nice host, she is extremely responsive. The self check in made it easy to get in. I saw Natalie on my way out. She graciously offered me breakfast. Sadly I declined because I was in a rush to get to an appointment. I recommend her place!

Staying with Myra is like visiting a great old friend in an incredibly warm and pleasant home located in a terrific part of town. Loved my stay and would absolutely return…and probably will.
