Wonderful place to stay! My 16-year-old son and I stayed for one night and both felt very happy and comfortable. The house was beautiful, clean, and quiet. I got some very tasty tacos about a block down for a late dinner. It seems parking in Boston is challenging/expensive no matter where you go, but I was able to find a free overnight spot. Not sure about public transportation, but the drive into downtown was a piece of cake. Would definitely recommend as an easy, affordable stay.
