The place was much better than expected. The location was absolutely perfect. It’s in a quiet neighborhood with lots of history and charm. There is construction going on across the street that starts at about 7am. The noise is not terrible and did not wake me as I read on other reviews. For our first time in Boston, this place was perfect and was within walking distance to EVERYTHING! It did not disappoint. As for the host(s)....communication was excellent and responses were within a timely manner. I would highly recommend this place and would book again if I go back.
