Great location!
I stayed from (5/1 to 5/6)
A few things to point out I feel future travellers would appreciate:
- CVS is a 5 minute walk (picked up a gallon of water here for my week)
- All places in Boston are walking distance (I only rented a car for visiting Newport and Plymouth)
- To above tip, the Tram can easily supplement tired feet (amazing public transportation)
- Wind can be fierce (I had a decent umbrella, but had to close it at times during frequent wind gusts)
Food:
- Wicked Lobsta (Flavorful Lobster roll)
- Cafe Madeleine (Mouth watering Blueberry muffin and Almond Croissant)
- Monica's Trattoria (Delicious Lobster ravioli)
Some tips I received from Locals:
- Seaport District has popular nightlife scene (Unfortunately I didn't get a chance to visit)
- Faneuil Hall (Gift shop vendors)
- Charles River (Peaceful place to sit on a bench while watching sail boats and ducks)
As of 5/6 a large amount of the attractions I wanted to visited were either closed or under construction, but I still enjoyed my time there with plenty to see. I will definitely be coming back!
Hope my review helps, enjoy your trip!
