My two teenage sons (19 and 14) and my girlfriend stayed with Bill for 4 nights during a visit to Boston for sightseeing and a Red Sox game. The accommodations were as represented and quite nice and comfortable. We had two bedrooms, each with a queen bed and television. Bathrooms were clean and quite nice. We also had use of the kitchen and living room and felt very comfortable doing so. A washer and dryer were also available.

But above all, Bill is an excellent host. He provided very clear directions on how to get from Logan to his place by public transportation. He met us at the subway/T station and gave us a ride to his place. He stocked a couple of shelves of his refrigerator with juice and milk and fruit and had cereal, bagels, etc. for us in the mornings. He gave us very helpful sightseeing hints (e.g. our subway/T pass provides access to a ferry that crosses Boston Harbor from downtown to Charlestown/Bunker Hill). While some of the areas are "shared", it never felt intrusive or uncomfortable.

Bill's place is south of the City in Ashmont near Dorchester. Its about a 15-20 minute walk to the Ashmont subway station. Its about a 20 minute ride into the heart of downtown. We found it very easy to get around.
