Jamaica Plain is a charming residential neighborhood southwest of Downtown Boston. This diverse area is bounded by Roxbury to the east, Roslindale and Brook Farm to the south, Liz Anderson Park to the west, and Mission Hill to the north.

Due to its laid-back atmosphere and large, affordable apartments, Jamaica Plain is home to numerous college students, as well as artists and working professionals. A variety of local eateries and trendy bars line Centre Street, which serves as the biggest commercial thoroughfare in Jamaica Plain. This neighborhood is served by numerous subway and light rail stations, making this an easily accessible area for residents and visitors alike. Head over to Jamaica Pond Park for some leisurely outdoor activity, fresh air, and scenic views of this neighborhood’s eponymously named pond.

How rent is calculated
Daily basis
This listing’s rent is calculated on a daily basis. For the first and last months of your stay, you’ll only pay for the exact number of days in your rental period — just like a hotel. We call this a Daily contract type. To confirm your rental, you’ll need to pay one month’s rent in full. Any excess rent you pay for the first month will be subtracted from the next month’s rent.
Cancellation policy

Strict cancellation

If you cancel:

  • Within 24 hours of confirmation – Full refund of first month’s rent
  • After 24 hours of confirmation – No refund
