About Property

Discover the charm of Boston from this 2nd-floor gem, a stylish 290 sqft haven located in one of the city's most coveted neighborhoods.

This inviting space is designed for comfort and convenience, featuring:

1 Bedroom
1 Bed
1 Bathroom
Guest Capacity: 2

While the property maintains a residential feel, it is equipped with essential room details to ensure a seamless stay, including a full private bathroom, fridge, oven, cabinets, and closets. For those preparing meals, the kitchen is stocked with basic pots, pans, mugs, cups, dishes, and bowls (please note that salt, pepper, coffee, tea, and oil are not provided).

Located just across Massachusetts Avenue from Northeastern University, you are situated in a unique micro-neighborhood defined by Huntington Avenue, Copley Place, and the Southwest Corridor Park. This area is central to a wonderful array of restaurants, coffee shops, bars, and live music, while still offering quiet spots for reading, walking a dog, or enjoying the lawns at Southwest Corridor Park. The location is exceptionally walkable and ideal for medical professionals, with quick access to Longwood Medical, Children's Hospital, Harvard Medical School, and Mass General Hospital.

As this apartment is part of a beautiful historic building over 100 years old, guests should be aware of a few traditional characteristics. Window-mounted AC units are provided during summer months (typically April/May through October/November). Some traditional water heater systems are in use, and occasional insects may appear during warmer months despite professional pest control.

House Rules
The following rules are to protect our property and ensure a comfortable, predictable stay for all guests. By booking with us, you agree to our rules and fee structure. We also outline additional disclaimers below to ensure a predictable experience.

Parties, Smoking, Noise As a provider of medical stay housing, we have a zero-tolerance policy for smoking, parties, loud music, or disturbances. Any violation can result in security involvement, immediate cancellation, and in rare cases the involvement of local law enforcement. We may use cameras in common areas and exterior of the building.

Air Conditioning The AC units installed sometime in April or May, removed in October or November, weather dependent. In these months we can not guarantee you will have AC, if you require it, you must message us ahead of time, and perhaps we can relocate you to units with central AC’s.

Quiet Hours Quiet hours are after 11pm. If a neighbor is disturbing you after hours, please confirm which unit the noise is coming from and reach out to us. We will communicate with the tenant and can involve security. We can not guarantee that the noise is one of our guests, so we may not be able to remedy, but will always try.

Reminder: Healing Homes is a provider of medical stay housing. If you need a place to stay for a visit to Boston for leisure, please message us for our Properties.

Families, Children, Toddlers, and Infants We welcome all families to stay with us and are happy to host those with younger children.

Additional Guests Each guest that enters the apartment over the number of guests shown in your booking is subject to a fee of $20/per night. We define a guest as anyone who enters the apartment. If you have a 3 night booking and have 2 additional guests in, we calculate the fee at $20fee2guests3nights = $180. Please keep this in mind when planning your trip. This is meant to curb parties and other loud gatherings which helps us to provide a quiet environment for all guests. If you would like to ask for a few guests to visit as a courtesy, ask and we may be able to approve.

Pets Policy All Pets, regardless of their size or breed require an additional $200 non refundable fee which is required for a full deep cleaning of the apartment, per pet. This is a specialized cleaning that is required of our Hospital Partners as we provide medical short term housing. This provides a comfortable experience for the next guest. Unless you have permission from us, no cats are allowed in our units and will be subject to a $500 fine. Any damage done by the dog in the unit, be it from chewing, bowel movements or excessive shedding the cost of damage is able to be collected by host and is in line with ADA laws in the state of MA.

TV Services The unit is equipped with a Chromecast, and/or roku, and/or smart tv, and will require guests to sign into their own app accounts. It is the guests responsibility to sign out of their accounts prior to check-out to maintain the integrity of your account.

Noise As with all city apartments there is the possibility of noise from neighbors, traffic, construction. This apartment is located in Downtown Boston. We can provide white noise machines or earplugs, but will not refund a stay for noise complaints. There is a club nearby that may have loud music that could affect your stay. Please keep this in mind when booking this unit, as it is out of our control should this disrupt your stay.

Parking Parking is not included with the booking. Parking in general is difficult in Boston, so please check Spot Hero for local parking prices and options.

Condition of Apartment & Damages It is our strong suggestion that you as the guest, report any damage you find inside the apartment within the first 4 hours of check-in. We do thorough maintenance checks, but sometimes, we miss things. When this happens we will confirm that the damage was not your responsibility. However, if no damage is reported within the first 4 hours of the booking, and there is damage found at the end of your stay, the replacement and repair value may be the responsibility of the guest. By reporting some issues in the first 4 hours we can confirm the condition and free you of responsibility.

Early Check-in & Late Check-Out If you want to check in early or check out late, you must request the option at least 24 hours in advance. Our early check-in time is 2:00pm. Our late check-out time is 1:00pm. The cost for either of these is $50. If you are in the apartment after the check-out time, you will be assessed a $100 late-check-out fee for every hour beyond the check-out time. All ECI and LCO are subject to our approval and availability. We are not responsible for guest belongings after check-out time. Your items will be left in the hallway and our teams will clean the unit immediately.

Pre-check-out condition Unlike other hosts, we do not have any dedicated tasks for our guests to perform upon leaving. This is what our cleaning fees are for. Our team will take pictures of your unit condition upon check-out. If there is excessive trash in the unit upon check-out we will charge an additional $100 deep clean fee.   Hospital/Medical Stays We respect your privacy and we strive hard to meet the requirements of HIPAA (the Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act) and is regulated by the US Department of Health and Human Services (HHS). We may ask for you to fill out a statement form and questionnaire to document for regulatory compliance and to help us provide a better experience for future medical stay guests while upholding the integrity of Protected Health Information. This survey is optional, and is meant to improve our product, services, communication and experience for all guests  Leisure Stays If your trip to Boston is fewer than twenty-eight consecutive days, or 11 consecutive days for business or institutional use, please contact us prior to completing your booking. We have dedicated apartments that are best fit for shorter term leisure stays, and can also introduce you to our preferred partner list of other hosts.

Lost Items We are not responsible for any lost items left behind by guest, or items that were shipped to you during your stay. We do make every effort to return items to guests that are of high value, electronics, jewelry, etc. You will be required to pay for shipping and a $40 processing fee for any items left behind.

Review Removal As hosts we have the right under Airbnb's terms to request removal of any review that goes against policy. Any breach of the house rules above is grounds for removal of review.
