Helen was the *perfect* host! When we arrived there was a welcome basket filled with snacks and toiletries; which was so considerate! Helen's apartment it's was beautiful (like seriously I am redecorating mine to match as soon as I get home) and as a side note - smelled amazing. Some seriously good candles in there! The bed was like sleeping on a cloud. The most comfy mattress and softest sheets I have ever seen. The apartment was within walking distance to everything we wanted (we even walked to Harvard in about an hour and the North End in about 45)
Helen was so easy to contact and she was so sweet and friendly. She offered wonderful suggestions and recommendations of things to do and see around Boston.
Boston is an amazing city and I couldn't recommend it, or Helens place, more highly!
