This is a cozy and comfortable first floor apartment in a residential brownstone neighborhood that is pleasant to walk in day or night. Boston is a walking city and most things, from the the historic district and the North End to the Museums Universities to the south are but a morning stroll away. Add to this the Back Bay transit hub a few short blocks up the street and there is little in the Boston area that you can't get to with a pair of good shoes and a Charlie Card. It was an ideal base for touring Boston colleges with my son. ThanksTim!
