I stayed at Shawn's place for three nights, and I highly recommend it. From the outside the house looks rather nondescript. However, inside the apartment looks to have been recently renovated, and done very well. It is very comfortable and quiet. Everything seems to work. I was having trouble with the WiFi, but I believe the difficulty was with my computer, as the WiFi on my phone had no trouble. The room I stayed in was large and very comfortable. It has everything needed for a short or a long stay. The apartment is about a 5-minute walk to the Jackson Square T stop (Orange line), which takes you to downtown Boston, South Station, or the Red Line to Cambridge, very quickly. Shawn himself was very helpful and timely in his communications. If you are traveling with a lot of luggage, be prepared for a walk up two short flights of stares to the third floor, but once you are there you will undoubtedly be pleased with what you find.
