John was very friendly and accommodating and the place was spotless. There is a kitchen you can share although we were not there long enough to use it. This was our first time to Boston so we were not familiar with the location, but learned quickly that it is easy to get anywhere in Boston the the trains, subways and buses. We got a week long pass for $22 that allowed to to navigate easily. The train stops at Uphams Corner which is a 5 minute walk from John’s Place!
