You cannot beat the location of this apartment! It proved to be a great point from which to get around Boston. I was in Boston for business, and my partner was in Boston for pleasure, and this apartment served us both very well. The apartment is in the heart of the North End, on a quiet alley, on the same street as Old North Church. It is convenient to great attractions, like the Freedom Trail, while being in a quiet part of the neighborhood. It is about a 10 minute walk to mass transit, about 15 minutes by foot to the financial district, and about 30 minutes by foot to the seaport. There are many great restaurants and bars located with in 5-10 minutes - we recommend Neptune Oyster Bar!

The apartment itself is cozy and warm. The bed is extremely comfortable and the shower is unbeatable. The kitchen is small, but has dishes, a coffee maker, fridge, and microwave. You will need to bring your own food and oil/spices. There is a large dining table for eating at.

Other guests have mentioned the noise, and while noise can be heard in the building, we didn't have much of a problem with this. I will say that I definitely noticed when other residents arrived late at night, but the noise subsided rather quickly. Jose and Jason leave many reminders to be quiet in the building, and it seems that some other guests and residents choose to disregard this reminder. If you are sensitive to occasional noise, this might not be the best place for you. But if you don't mind a little bump in the night - or sleep like a log - this is a great place!
