Manuela was an excellent host, and made me feel like a welcome guest in her home. Not only did she meet me at the metro station near her house, but she helped me carry my way-too-heavy bag up the stairs to my room.

Speaking of the room, it was roomy, comfortable, and spotlessly clean. The same goes for the bathroom, shower, and the rest of the house.

The next time I'm in Boston, I'm definitely going to request this location again.
