I had booked one room in a 7 bed 2 bath house for a month long stay. The shared kitchen was pathetically awful, dirty, shabby. They charged me ~2000 usd (incl international & bank fee) for a month. My room was alright but it didn't have a fan or AC even after paying so much. I had to buy my own table fan. They took a deposit of 1725 USD & I got it back after almost 2 months of endless requests & emails. The amount they returned was 1520 USD as 80$ was my electricity bill & rest was bank & international fee according to them.
There are better websites to find a short term rentals in Boston. I would recommend using those like Spareroom or rotating rooms.

Hi Rohit, thank you for sharing your feedback. We appreciate you taking the time to document your experience.
We’ve reviewed the full communication and service history related to your stay. Throughout your booking, our teams were actively engaged, including move-in coordination, cleaning follow-ups, maintenance visits, internet troubleshooting with the ISP, and multiple rounds of communication to clarify charges and services.
While we understand that some aspects of the stay did not meet your expectations, particularly around pricing, cooling, and shared spaces, we want to clarify a few points for context:
• Amenities such as AC or fans are disclosed per listing and lease terms, and availability can vary by room and building.
• Internet is billed as a shared utility per the lease, and our team reviewed and confirmed the final charges applied during your stay.
• Your move-out report was received, reviewed, and accepted, and the refundable portion of your deposit was processed after standard reconciliation, with deductions explained as utilities and applicable fees.
We recognize that short-term stays, especially international ones, can feel stressful when expectations around comfort, pricing, or timing don’t fully align. While we’re sorry that the experience did not meet your personal standards, we do want to acknowledge that your concerns were addressed through the appropriate channels and documented responses were provided at each stage.
Thank you again for sharing your perspective. We wish you the best moving forward.

Worst rental experience in our lives
Worst rental experience in our lives. There was so much that went wrong that I won't list it all. I sent the entire review to the company's support and they were quite indifferent about it, including their (now ex-) CEO and founder.
An obnoxiously tiny, worn down dirty unit in a nasty building. Aggressive sales. Bad service.

Low quality and just focused on extracting money
The company is incredibly attentive during the booking process, constantly claiming it is a "high demand period" and trying to pressure you to sign the contract. While this did make me suspicious, I unfortunately didn't trust my instincts enough. The room's furnishing was adequate, but the condition of the property and the furnishing of the common areas was very poor. Almost no cookware in the kitchen, and what was provided was in an abysmal state. The "cleaning" provided was also very poor with only very superficial cleaning having been done. There was supposedly a cleaning done the day after I moved in, but the floor of the kitchen was sticky. They claimed they would organize a makeup cleaning, but while they scheduled it, it kept getting pushed back until it was done on the next regular cleaning date. This cleaning was also inadequate. The excessive fees they charge also add up. I was shocked to see that they charge a full day of rent for the move-out date even though you are required to vacate by 10am. Therefore, you're forced to pay an additional day that you do not get the apartment for, it's the equivalent of staying in a hotel for 1 night but having to pay for 2 days. I definitely would not rent through them again.

Hi there, thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’re sorry to hear that it left you feeling disappointed.
We understand how frustrating it can be when the condition of a shared home, cleaning expectations, or billing structure doesn’t align with what you anticipated. Cleaning services are provided on a defined schedule and scope, primarily for common areas, and follow-up or additional cleanings are coordinated when issues are reported. That said, we recognize that if expectations aren’t clearly aligned at move-in, the experience can feel underwhelming, and we regret that this was the case for you.
Regarding booking and pricing, availability and rates can fluctuate based on demand, and all fees, rent start dates, and move-out terms are outlined in the lease prior to signing. Rent is tied to the contracted lease period rather than hotel-style nightly stays, which is why move-out timing does not always change the final day’s charge. We understand that this can feel surprising if you’re new to this type of housing, and clearer upfront communication is something we continue to work on.
We appreciate your feedback around cleaning quality, shared amenities, and overall value, as it helps us identify where processes and communication need improvement. While we’re sorry that your experience didn’t meet expectations, we do thank you for taking the time to share it and wish you the best moving forward.

Do not rent from these people
They do not take care of their properties and the owner spends all his time vacationing.

No opportunity to view the room in…
No opportunity to view the room in advance before paying the rent and deposit. The offered room did not match the video shown beforehand at all; everything was extremely dirty, and the common areas were filled with clutter and junk. The light and thermostat were not working. June Homes barely responds to emails, only stating, "we have forwarded the issue," but then nothing happens. They really give you the impression of being scammed.

Hi Brigitte, thank you for sharing your experience. We’re sorry to hear that it was frustrating and disappointing.
For transparency, our homes are typically leased based on listings, photos, and virtual information rather than in-person tours prior to move-in, which is outlined during the booking process. We understand that this can be an adjustment if expectations aren’t fully aligned, and we regret that the condition of the home did not meet what you anticipated upon arrival.
When issues such as cleanliness, lighting, or temperature controls are reported, they are reviewed and escalated through our support and maintenance teams according to established procedures. While responses may involve coordination with property managers or vendors, we recognize that delays or lack of clear follow-up can feel discouraging, and we’re sorry if communication felt insufficient in your case.
Feedback like yours is reviewed internally to help improve listing accuracy, move-in readiness, and response clarity. If you’re open to it, reaching out to our support team directly with your booking details would allow us to review what occurred and provide any relevant clarification.
Thank you again for taking the time to share your perspective. We appreciate the feedback and wish you the best moving forward.

Do not rent with June Homes Boston
My living situation in Boston this summer was horrible. I rented a room through June Homes for two months and it was the most disgusting, run-down place I have ever lived in.
The room I was assigned was located on the third floor of the house, but there was no indication on the rental website that this was the case. I had to lug my suitcases up two flights of stairs myself. In fact, nothing about the property resembled what was shown on the website - the photos suggest a newly furbished, clean space. However, this is a lie: the appliances were old, the walls were shedding paint, the whole house smelled moldy, and the room and balcony were shabby. Upon arriving, I noticed a nose-piercing disinfectant smell that filled my room. I asked June Homes about the smell, but received no response. Because of this smell, I couldn't sleep for the first three nights. The Wi-Fi password that they gave me was wrong, and I had to ask my roommate for the correct one.
I had my own room, but shared a communal area and bathroom with five other people. The bathroom was gross: the sink always had hair shavings around it, and the toilet had pee marks on it every time I used it. Shampoo and body wash bottles cluttered the bathtub, a clear indication that no one came in and cleared away the supplies after people moved out.
Half-way through my stay, the lock on the house door ran out of batteries. This meant that when the door closed, it could not be opened from the outside. As a result, for the remainder of my rental, the door was propped open all the time, which was INSANE. Anyone could have entered the house and stolen our belongings. My roommate and I asked June Homes to repair the door, but they said the onus was on us to buy a screwdriver and batteries, and fix the door ourselves. Then they will reimburse us for the cost of the supplies. This was their response anytime anything broke (kitchen light, toilet, shower...) - we had to fix them ourselves. If the responsibility is on the renters to repair everything around the house, then what on Earth do we pay our rent and maintenance costs for?
The kitchen area was an abomination. The fridge was filled with rotting food that people did not throw away after they left - rotting beef, spoiled cucumbers that have turned to a liquid moldy mush, expired milk. There were always dozens of flies swirling around the kitchen, and the communal trash bin was always overflowing. I never used the kitchen trash bin as I had my own bin in my room. One of the two kitchen sinks was clogged, and the other one was filled with dirty dishes that someone leaves from their breakfast on a consistent basis. I did not feel comfortable cooking or eating in the kitchen due to the lack of sanitation.
We had the option of submitting tickets if we had a question or concern. However, June Homes either circumvents the concern, tells you to fix it yourself, or ignores you. This rental property is not worth paying $1500 per month for. DO NOT RENT WITH JUNE HOMES. It will ruin your experience.

Hi Alice, thank you for taking the time to share your experience. We’re sorry to hear how difficult and frustrating your stay felt.
We’ve reviewed the full communication and service history related to your booking. Throughout your stay, multiple concerns were raised and addressed through our support channels, including access instructions, internet credentials, cleaning follow-ups, pest concerns, shared space issues, guest policy enforcement, lock access, and maintenance requests. Our records show that our teams responded, provided guidance, scheduled visits where applicable, and followed up when additional information or access was needed.
That said, we recognize that shared homes, especially in older buildings, can present challenges, and that repeated issues can make even resolved items feel unresolved from a resident’s perspective. We regret that the overall experience did not meet your expectations, particularly around cleanliness standards, shared spaces, and comfort early in your stay.
Regarding maintenance and minor repairs, some items such as lock batteries and basic upkeep are handled according to the lease terms, with reimbursement options offered when residents choose to address them directly. We understand that this model may not align with every renter’s expectations, and we’re sorry if this felt burdensome.
We also want to clarify that concerns raised through tickets were reviewed and escalated when appropriate, including coordination with property management and enforcement of house rules where applicable. While actions were taken, we acknowledge that the experience still felt stressful and unsatisfactory for you.
Your feedback has been reviewed internally and is taken seriously, as it highlights where communication clarity, move-in readiness, and shared-home standards need to continue improving. We’re sorry that your time with June Homes was so upsetting, and we wish you the best moving forward.

Awful
Unfortunately, I did not have a great experience. June Homes was not entirely honest. Promised we get an 'extra free day to move out' as when I moved in, they said after 2. Moving out, before 10am and I already moved out a month earlier. Then June homes decided to take a portion of money out for the promised extra free day that I didn't use anyway. Also did not keep the place well maintained and asked me to do it once I moved in.
They also ignored when things urgently needed to be fixed and then would ask ‘why’ and for a picture after all the details had already been posted and then they would just close the ticket if they didn’t hear from you within 2 days. They are not communicative and will make your life harder. I couldn’t access my mailbox for 6 months and found I got jury duty way past, once they finally got around to fixing it- because I told them that I have the right to access voting materials. Utilities also skyrocket.

Hi Ashley, thank you for sharing your experience. We’re sorry to hear that it felt so frustrating and disappointing.
We understand how stressful move-out timing, billing questions, and unresolved access or maintenance issues can be. Rent charges, move-out dates, and any concessions such as free or prorated days are governed by the lease terms and the final account reconciliation, which is why adjustments don’t always align with informal expectations or earlier conversations. We recognize that this can feel confusing, and clearer communication around these details is something we continue to work on.
When maintenance or access concerns are reported, our process requires documentation so the appropriate teams or property partners can act. While this helps ensure issues are handled correctly, we acknowledge that repeated requests for details or ticket closures can feel frustrating, especially when an issue feels urgent from the resident’s perspective.
Mail access, utilities, and building-level services are often dependent on third-party management or providers, which can impact timing and costs. That said, we regret that these matters took longer than expected to resolve and that the experience felt burdensome.
We appreciate you taking the time to share this feedback. It has been reviewed internally and helps highlight where communication, expectations, and follow-through can improve. We wish you the best moving forward and appreciate the time you spent with June Homes.

Total scam and unethical
Total scam and unethical. Overcharged in multiple areas with no explanation of the costs. I was charged multiple times a month for a “Rental Revenue Fee” (maintenance fees) that were only supposed to be a monthly charge per the lease agreement. I was charged hundreds of dollars in utilities per month and requested an invoice from ConEd. The ConEd invoice was extremely low compared to what me and the other roommates were being charged. June Homes declined to explain additional fees, costs, and additional charges and threatened to hit me and the other roommates with additional charges if we didn’t pay the unexplained charges.
June Homes doesn’t maintain the apartments or keep them clean. When I moved in there was cat fur everywhere, mold all over the bathrooms, and the kitchen had mice, roaches, and ants that they refused to address. All illegal to not handle these conditions. Any time you try to reach out for maintenance, expect a back and forth for days even weeks just to have your request not addressed properly.
Overall, an extremely unpleasant experience and I would not recommend. You will over pay for a small, dirty, and unsafe room with roommates you don’t know. I had a roommate stealing from me and June Homes addressed the situation by saying they “can’t get involved in roommate conflicts.” Save yourself the time, money, and drama and avoid June Homes at all costs.

Hi Aly, thank you for sharing your feedback. We’re sorry to hear how upsetting and frustrating your experience felt.
We want to be clear that June Homes does not apply charges arbitrarily or threaten residents over billing questions. Fees, utilities, and service charges are assessed according to the lease agreement and utility setup for each home, and invoices are reviewed by our accounting team when questions are raised. We understand that utility billing in shared homes can feel confusing, especially when usage varies by month or when third-party providers are involved, and we regret that this process did not feel transparent to you.
When maintenance or cleanliness concerns are reported, they are logged, reviewed, and escalated through our support system so the appropriate teams or vendors can take action. While shared living can introduce additional complexity, especially around cleanliness or roommate behavior, those concerns are addressed through established processes and house rules rather than being dismissed.
We recognize that repeated issues, delays, or back-and-forth communication can make an experience feel exhausting, and we’re sorry that this was the case for you. Feedback like yours is reviewed internally to identify where clarity, coordination, and communication need to improve.
Thank you for taking the time to leave a review. We wish you the best moving forward and appreciate you sharing your perspective.
