Parking Policies and Options at Oasis Guest House

What you need to know:

If you're a guest who may be planning to arrive with a vehicle, you definitely should review the important information below.

What you need to know:

• A very limited number of spaces are available in a service alley behind our properties

• Unfortunately we cannot guarantee availability of parking spaces

• Advance reservations for parking spaces are not possible

• Spaces are available first come, first served only

• You may request a space when doing your mandatory pre-registration (two days before arrival). The morning of your arrival, we will send you a text message and/or email with a parking space assignment, or a message indicating that no spaces are available. 

• Small or medium sized vehicles only. Sorry, no pickup trucks, minivans, large SUV's or extended cab vehicles - they simply won't fit.  Vehicles must be no larger than the following dimensions:

• * 16 ft x 6 ft  (192 inches x 72 inches)

• If you're unsure of the dimensions of your vehicle, a quick search on Google will provide you the details

• Parking spaces may not be available during snow storms, or any time the alley is not properly cleared of snow or ice as a result of occasional delay of services from the City of Boston

• Unfortunately, we do not have handicapped accessible spaces, and there are none on the street near us.

 

If you don't request parking during your registration, you may request a space upon check-in - however, all spaces may already be sold out.  You'll also have to drive back around to the alley entrance (or the nearby garage if our spaces are sold out). The drive, while short in distance, may take 10-15 minutes or more due to one-way streets, traffic lights, heavy traffic and numerous pedestrians in the area. 

​

While we often have spaces available, from time to time they do sell out. This is especially true during Red Sox games, local concerts, student move-in weekends, city events, etc. If our spaces are sold out, if you have a larger vehicle, or if you require sheltered parking, we will direct you to Westland Parking Garage at 35 Westland Avenue. This nearby public garage is at the end of the street (the corner of Edgerly Road and Westland Ave), just a short 2-minute walk from our location. The garage charges $38.00/24-hour period. Lower rates for shorter lengths of time are available. For more details or their full rate schedule, visit their website at Westland Parking Garage.  Please note we are not affiliated with the garage and we do not have any "validation" stickers, and we do not have any special pricing arrangement with any public garages or parking lots. 

​

We recommend using SpotHero or ParkWhiz apps or their websites where you can find, reserve and pay for parking spaces in local area garages (including Westland Parking Garage) at discounted rates.  See their apps or websites for more details:  SpotHero    ParkWhiz

 

Please note that we don't have storage facilities for bicycles or other recreational equipment. If you plan to bring bicycles or other equipment to Boston, please make arrangements in advance for storage in a secure location.

Bike sharing from BlueBikes is available nearby for our guests who would like to enjoy the nearby bicycle paths and sightseeing.
