The apartment is located in a charming building. The neighborhood has lots of character and was always safe during our stay. There is a great restaurant next door which was convenient for us. Parking was fine. At times we had to park around the corner a few feet past the building. The subway was near by as well, which we found handy when we did not want to drive downtown.
Accessing the apartment was easy, yet the apartment felt safe with a locked entrance. The apartment itself had plenty of space for four adults and one toddler. It was very clean. I'm extremely picky about mattresses due arthritis. My mattress was great. I was pleasantly surprised how comfortable it was.
I would say the only hiccup we had was that the air conditioner would blow warm air at times and cool air at other times after we arrived. We were unable to reach anyone until the day after we arrived due to us arriving later in the evening the night before. They sent someone out that day to fix the problem. We did have a fan as well. The rest of the week the weather was fairly cool and we didn't really need to turn on the AC.
I would defiantly recommend staying in the apartment to both friends and family who were interested in visiting Boston.
