We didn't get to actually meet Jose, but he was very responsive via email and accommodating at our request for early check-in and late check-out. The apartment is much bigger than the pictures make it look and is very nice. The location is absolutely awesome. You walk out of the alley and can go left to the cemetery or right to the Old North Church. There is a small gift shop and coffee shop right on the corners, and Theo's Cafe is an absolute must. We became regulars there. It's a short walk to the TD Garden Center, to the downtown area, Mike's Pastry, the wharf, etc. It's really a great location (have I mentioned that already?).

One suggestion if you have uber/lyft drivers pick you up from the apartment, set your pickup location as the Old North Church, the actual address of the apartment sends the driver to the opposite side of the block.
We would definitely stay here again!
