Location, location, location is central for this studio on Beacon Hill, a stone’s throw from the Boston Common and the State House, within easy walking distance of good restaurants on Charles Street. The neighborhood is picturesque, with brick townhouses and sidewalks, and very quiet. The studio has all the basics: good bed, bathroom, TV and washer/dryer, with fridge, coffeemaker and microwave. Norah was a discreet host and answered promptly. Check-in was easy, and I appreciated the flexibility on checkout time.
