This was a great alternative to a hotel for our family of 5. Unit was clean, plenty of toilet paper, dish soap, laundry detergent, towels, etc provided. Good location for sightseeing. Right across from Boston common, T stop very close, 15 minute walk to the North End. Area felt relatively safe- some interesting characters on the street, but building security is there in the evening. Elevators were very temperamental- 2 were not working the three nights we were there, and another was VERY slow. A few things in the apartment were in need of repair- the microwave (a counter top unit was supplied to take its place) and dryer (a piece of packing tape is needed to keep the door shut). Bathrooms were clean and both showers had good water pressure. Our family enjoyed our stay!
