A month in Boston is usually work or care
Most people who need a furnished place for a month or more are here for something with a start date and an end date: a nursing contract at one of the Longwood hospitals, a medical fellowship or rotation, a new job that starts before the lease does, a renovation at home, or someone in the family going through treatment. What they need is not a hotel room for thirty nights. It is somewhere that works like a home from the first evening.
That is what these are: 19 whole apartments in Dorchester and Hyde Park, each with its own front door, its own full kitchen and free parking on the property, and every one of them books online for any length from one night to a year.
What a month needs that a week does not
A kitchen you will actually cook in, because thirty restaurant dinners is a lot of money and more than anyone wants. A washer and dryer inside the apartment - most of ours have one - so work clothes and scrubs are not a weekly trip to a laundromat. Parking that is yours: much of Boston's street parking is for residents with permits, and a garage by the month is a real bill; here the space comes with the apartment. Fast Wi-Fi for the evenings and the days off. And self check-in, so arriving after a long drive or a late shift does not depend on anyone being awake.
Getting to work from here
Typical drive times outside rush hour to Boston Medical Center (BMC), the Longwood hospitals (Brigham and Women's, Boston Children's, Dana-Farber, Beth Israel Deaconess), Mass General and Tufts, with the car parked free at your end. Our Dorchester apartments are also at the Ashmont end of the Red Line, and the Hyde Park ones are a short walk from Hyde Park commuter rail station, with trains into Back Bay and South Station.
| Hospital | Dorchester | Hyde Park |
|---|---|---|
| BMC | 15-20 min | 20-30 min |
| Longwood | 19-25 min | 20-25 min |
| Mass General | 20-25 min | 30-35 min |
| Tufts / downtown | 15-20 min | 25-30 min |
How the price works when you stay longer
There is no separate monthly price list to ask for. Pick your dates in the calendar on any apartment below and it shows the total for exactly those nights - the nightly rate falls as the stay gets longer, and booking here carries no booking fee. If a contract runs on, ask before your end date: when the nights after it are free, the stay can simply be extended.
Extended-stay hotels, corporate housing, monthly rentals: the same search, a different answer
People looking for a month in Boston search furnished apartments in Boston by the month, extended-stay hotels, corporate housing, travel nurse housing, sublets or a monthly Airbnb. Those searches lead to the same few options: an extended-stay hotel room with a kitchenette and a nightly parking charge, a corporate apartment with a management company in between, or a sublet that depends on someone else's lease. What we offer is a whole furnished apartment with a full kitchen, a washer and dryer in most units and free parking at the door, about 15 to 25 minutes from the hospitals and downtown, booked online for exactly the dates you need. Licensed City of Boston rentals, booked direct with no service fee.

Common questions
- Can I book a full month online?
- Yes. Every apartment books online for any length from one night to a year. Pick the dates in the calendar and you see the full total before you pay.
- Is it cheaper per night for a longer stay?
- Yes. The nightly rate drops as the stay gets longer, and the calendar shows the total for your exact dates, with no booking fee added at the end.
- Is parking included for the whole stay?
- Yes. Free parking on the property at every apartment, for every night of the stay - no permit to apply for and no garage bill.
- Is there a washer and dryer for a long stay?
- In most of the apartments, inside the apartment itself. 17 Ellis Street Apt A and 19 Ellis Street Apts A and B do not have one, so for a month-long stay pick one of the others.
- I searched for extended-stay hotels or travel nurse housing - is this a hotel?
- No - whole apartments, not hotel rooms: your own front door, kitchen and parking, booked like a hotel for any dates from one night to a year, with no booking fee.
