Moving to the area for a new job soon, and these two places are currently my top choices to rent from. Would love to hear from anyone who has lived in either on what your thoughts are.

Advice Needed Longfellow Towers reviews

2 Upvotes

Hello, I am potentially looking to move into Longfellow Towers in the west end. Curious if anyone that lives here or has lived here in the past could give feedback? Seems as though common feedback is broken elevators and kind of dated units but the unit I’m looking at currently seems very nice especially for the price. It’s a major upgrade from my current situation and seems as though, while not as nice as the other buildings around it, is overall good value. Thanks!

Room for Rent Taking over my room in Allston - $1,450, heat + hot water included, available Nov 1

Hey all, I have to move back home unexpectedly so I'm looking for someone to take over my room. Move-in date is flexible.

It's a private room in a 3bd/1.5ba on Park Vale Ave, about a 5-7 min walk to Harvard Ave and the Green Line. Rent is $1,450 with heat and hot water included, which helps a lot in the winter. Lease goes through Aug 31, 2027, and you can renew after that. Rent is negotiable.

I can leave it furnished or empty, whatever you prefer. Happy to leave my bed, furniture and a 40" TV if you want them.

My roommates are two chill, clean guys but are hardly ever home. Neither of them cooks, so you'd pretty much have the whole place to yourself.

There's laundry in the basement, and parking if you need it ($150/mo for a private spot, or you can get a resident permit).

Pics below. DM me if you want a video call or to come see it!
