When looking at options in Boston, East Boston hadn't been on our radar. Its proximity to Logan was concerning, the neighborhood an X factor. The reviews are terrific for Boris and Susan, the photo looked terrific, so we took a chance.
East Boston is charming. Everything is closer together than it looks on a map - the T is a quick walk along streets lined with Colombian, Mexican, Peruvian and Brazilian shops and eateries. There's a little mall close by with a Marshall's. Down near the T at Mavericks, there's a pier with a Water Taxi to downtown.
When we turned off the in-room AC machine, we could hear the planes of Logan - but not loud. There were earplugs available as an amenity in a little basket in the bathroom. The proximity to the airport is not a minus, and probably a plus to those flying in. You could walk to the place.
The unit is replete with posted helpful info, advice, suggestions, and guidance for graceful occupancy, and complimentary touches like snacks, including fruit, yogurt, chocolate and nuts.
The decor is hip, with a minimalist, clean sensibility. Susan's talent as a photographer is in evidence. It's well-managed and delightful. Highly recommended!
