Our family had a great stay at Ranner's place. The apartment is spacious, well stocked and tastefully decorated. our teenagers enjoyed the privacy of their own bedrooms, as well as the Bose sound system and large screen
The location is very close to the red line, and it is an easy commute to the city, which we did daily. It was also quiet at nighttime
In terms of urban neighborhoods, it felt safe, but there are no amenities nearby to pick up a quick coffee, etc. It is on the edge of gentrified parts of Dorchester. The large, clean space was worth it for us...but if you want to be near cafes and restaurants look elsewhere.
