Charlestown is a great starting point for anyone wanting to do the Freedom Trail as this accommodation is just a few minutes walk from the Bunker Hill Monument. Public transport by bus was less than 5 minutes away, and by train/metro into Boston less than 10 minutes away - making it an ideal location.
The apartment was very neat and clean and really wanted for nothing from an amenity perspective. While the kitchen is not modern, it was completely functional so you won't be let down by what the apartment offers.
Our bedroom was huge and the bed exceptionally comfortable so when we did manage to get to sleep, we slept well. The only downside to our stay was that the bed literally backed onto the wall which was immediately adjacent the footpath, so we heard every conversation from passers by. Light sleepers might want to bring ear plugs.
Apart from that, the kitchen and laundry were big plusses for us and for the time we were there it felt homely.
Gerard and Marie are lovely hosts and always gave us guidance and suggestions when we were unsure of anything.
