Decent Stay, But Not Without Drawbacks
I rented here while working at Boston Childrens Hospital in Waltham, and the commute was shortabout 10 minutes door to door. The landlord was responsive to issues, but several drawbacks made the stay less comfortable. A keypad lock was promised but never installed; I got locked out once since the back door locks automatically. Temperature control was also difficult, as the landlord prefers a warmer environment, so the AC was inconsistent and the house often felt humid. Several basic items were missing when I moved in (hamper, nightstand, hangers), requiring me to purchase my own. Storage was limitedthough some kitchen space was cleared, I had to keep my suitcases and overflow items in my bedroom, making it cluttered. Noise was another issue, as the landlords bedroom was directly above mine; she often came home late at night, and her walking around would wake me. Overall, responsiveness was a positive, but comfort was lacking.
