Minor's place is lovely. Very clean and quite spacious for an attic. The location is perfect. It's in a quiet neighborhood with lots of character, yet you can walk to the T in 5 minutes and go anywhere in Boston you'd like. You could even take the T from the airport if you are on a tight budget. We took a cab from the airport for $33, and Lyft back to the airport for $25.
We arrived late from our flight, about 11PM. Minor was still up, and his teen-age sons carried our bags up the 3 flights of stairs. You can't count on that, though, so only stay here if you know you could do that yourself.
Minor had left some nice snacks for us- orange juice, milk, tea, coffee, and several Greek yogurts. They were much appreciated!
The only negative is the light from the skylights. One skylight is right over the double bed, and it made it hard to sleep for my wife, who is sensitive to light.
She had to change to the single bed at the other end of the room, which was much darker. The attic can get hot in summer, but the air conditioner kept the space nice and cool, and the ceiling fan really helped us to sleep after we turned off the air conditioner for a quieter night's sleep.
Another plus is that Whole Foods Market is 5 minutes away, as are several nice restaraunts.
All in all, a great place to stay!
