My adult son and I really enjoyed our 5 nights in Mike’ s place. The apartment is clean and in an attractive building and Mike had kindly left out a bottle of Cava for us! It is well located – a few minutes from Mass Ave subway, a 10-minute green and pleasant walk via Carleton street to Back Bay subway (rail and subway station – we used it to travel to Providence airport) and it’s between the Museum of Fine Art (15 minutes’ walk) and Boston Common (30-minute walk). We walked mainly, but the subway was easy and handy when we had less time. Mike had recommended ‘Mike’s (another Mike!) Sandwich Shop’ which was nearby, and we really like it there and had breakfast there twice – very reasonable and great menu choices! Mike had also told us about a supermarket which was a 10-minute walk away – we self-catered some of the time and ate out others. Our flight home wasn't until late at night and, as no guest was checking in the day, Mike helpfully let us leave our stuff in the apartment until we left the city. Mike always responded to queries quickly before our arrival (we didn't need to contact him whilst there) and very kindly met us at the apartment at 4am to hand over the keys when our flight was delayed by several hours (phew!). Mike is a friendly and helpful guy.
