Remodeled Townhouse close to Boston earns praise for its convenient Watertown location near Cambridge and Harvard Square, family-friendly space, clean interiors, a pleasant backyard, and responsive hosting that makes check-in easy and communication quick.
Common drawbacks include steep stairs, thin walls with some noise from the adjacent unit or nearby traffic, and a single first-floor bathroom that can be inconvenient. Some guests found the kitchen basics limited—some citing no coffee maker—and a few noted short supplies like toilet paper; one review mentioned seeing a mouse. Overall, this is a practical, no-frills base.

This home was conveniently located within ten minutes of Cambridge. Plenty of space was available for our party of four both inside and in the private backyard. Window air conditioners allowed for individualized temperature control. Our son enjoyed having the third floor to himself. One bathroom could be tricky at times, but we were able to work it out. Some noise at night, so it would help to bring ear plugs if you are a light sleeper. Owner was helpful and provided immediate responses. Would suggest a Keurig or coffee maker for guest use. We would definitely stay again!

We stayed for 6 nights while our daughters took a ballet intensive in Cambridge. Short drive to Cambridge. Townhouse was super close to everything. Back yard was super cute with nice deck. Would definitely stay here again if coming back to the area.

This multi-level duplex worked out really well for our stay. We needed a parking spot, washer/dryer, room for 4 adults to sleep and this place had it all for a reasonable price. Note: staircase is steep and bathroom is cozy.

Annabelly is an excellent host and it was very easy to communicate with her. She responded very quickly to all questions. The place was extremely clean, comfortable, and had everything we needed. The location was ideal for getting into Boston and Cambridge and there was a great walking path nearby along the Charles River. Check-in was very easy and we really enjoyed the outdoor patio!

Stayed for 4 days in June with our family of 6. Clean, comfortable, great location, comfy beds. The host was helpful and prompt in reply. The only downside was the 3rd floor a/c wasn't working well so it was like a sauna up there, but we did come in record breaking heat for Boston. I don't imagine it's usually an issue. Also, the steep stairs might be tricky with toddlers, but our kids were older so it was fine. We even enjoyed the backyard playing cards on the back porch by the grass. Very happy overall with our stay!

This is a very plessant home on the outskirts of Watertown. It's a five minute drive to the Mass Pike but also a short walk into Watertown Square, which has great restaurants. The house is well appointed, including a kitchen that we used to cook a lot, and a very comfortable back yard where we soaked up the early Spring sunshine.

The house description is accurate. My family and I were comfortable in the space. It's close to a 15 minute drive to Harvard/ Harvard Square which is where we spent most of our time. The drive was easy to navigate. The kitchen is very basic- not many "extras", I'm happy I brought my coffee pot with us because there was nothing else for coffee. We managed and got creative with the pots and pans that were there when making dinners. Communication with the host was great! Quick responses when questions arose. If we come back will consider staying again.

Owner very pleasant & professional for check-in etc. Vey clean apartment inside. Very conveniently located within ~1 mile of I-90 approach, easy access to Cambridge, Boston & surrounding towns but with easier street layout and less hectic traffic in Watertown than some of the other neighborhoods. Can hear a little bit of family in adjacent condo but not too loud. Small bit adequate bathroom. Off-street parking is sufficient. Backyard w patio table neatly maintained. Full kitchen, full-sized washer/dryer, mattresses firm.

Nice big place close to Boston and Cambridge for a pretty good area. Nice kitchen and downstairs and yard. Nice bedrooms including a third one on the third floor. There were some pretty steep chairs that were a little bit of a challenge and no bathroom upstairs. The place was clean, but we did see a mouse in the kitchen one night when we came home after dark.

Overall our stay was okay. Property was clean and access was fairly easy. Nothing stellar, but nothing unliveable either This property was located in a decent area of town, close enough to downtown backing a car dealership. I would describe this as a duplex, not townhouse. The remodeling described is only surface level. This is an old building with no soundproofing and older building code. The stairs were steep and at an angle (the whole house was settled at an angle as we found a ball would roll across the floor) that we had to be very cautious going up and down. We could hear the neighbours conversations clearly and any movement in the other unit vibrated heavily through our unit. We are not a loud couple, but felt we had to keep quieter as we felt there was less privacy. The neighbours were up at all hours including through the night with children jumping and yelling and made it challenging to get good rest. The property was not stocked well enough for our 5 night stay with 2 adults. We purchased toilet paper and soap to keep us going and were asked to take the garbage to the curb. Overall, we enjoyed our time but felt we couldn't settle in during our stay and relax for the evenings and mornings when we came back from being out.

The unit is very nice inside. The only bathroom is on the 1st floor and the steps are steep. We were traveling with my 79 year old father and every time he got up in the night to use the bathroom I was nervous. Besides that, the house had everything we needed and was clean and bright. The curb appeal is lacking but it's a safe neighborhood. There is a great diner within walking distance. We ate there everyday! It was 15 minutes from Northeastern. We really enjoyed our long weekend in Watertown.

Our family of four enjoyed a very comfortable stay while visiting relatives near Watertown. The beds were comfortable and everything worked well. Our host responded to any questions very promptly. The place is a few minutes’ walking distance to restaurants and a drug store, and a nice walk along the River. It’s near a busy street and was noisy in the weekday morning but earplugs can cover that. Recommended!

We stayed for 6 nights while our daughters took a ballet intensive in Cambridge. Short drive to Cambridge. Townhouse was super close to everything. Back yard was super cute with nice deck. Would definitely stay here again if coming back to the area.

This is a very plessant home on the outskirts of Watertown. It's a five minute drive to the Mass Pike but also a short walk into Watertown Square, which has great restaurants. The house is well appointed, including a kitchen that we used to cook a lot, and a very comfortable back yard where we soaked up the early Spring sunshine.

A clean, comfortable, pleasant home, very convenient to Harvard Square. (Bonus: a block away from a great diner.)

A pleasant, comfortable house very convenient to Harvard Square, which was exactly what we needed. Also near convenient shops and a great diner.

Owner very pleasant & professional for check-in etc. Vey clean apartment inside. Very conveniently located within ~1 mile of I-90 approach, easy access to Cambridge, Boston & surrounding towns but with easier street layout and less hectic traffic in Watertown than some of the other neighborhoods. Can hear a little bit of family in adjacent condo but not too loud. Small bit adequate bathroom. Off-street parking is sufficient. Backyard w patio table neatly maintained. Full kitchen, full-sized washer/dryer, mattresses firm.

Plenty of room for a family stay. Location is convenient to get into Boston or local places in Watertown. The walls of the unit are thin so you can hear people talking next door, like in the kitchen, or in bedrooms at night if you are unlucky to get loud guests next door.

Nice big place close to Boston and Cambridge for a pretty good area. Nice kitchen and downstairs and yard. Nice bedrooms including a third one on the third floor. There were some pretty steep chairs that were a little bit of a challenge and no bathroom upstairs. The place was clean, but we did see a mouse in the kitchen one night when we came home after dark.

This multi-level duplex worked out really well for our stay. We needed a parking spot, washer/dryer, room for 4 adults to sleep and this place had it all for a reasonable price. Note: staircase is steep and bathroom is cozy.
