The apartment view from the front bay window was beautiful! We could see boats in the harbor and Bunker Hill in the distance. The sunlight filtered through the three windows putting a fresh and happy glow on the place. The location was good. It was close to North Boston with wonderful restaurants and clubs within easy walking distance. Without to much extra walking we could also get into downtown Boston where we saw many of the tourist sites and other attractions.
We were greeted by a member of the restate group that manages the rental while the owner is away. He was on time, eager to help with our bags, answer questions and give suggestions on eating places and getting around. He even called his wife for her expertise when he was stumped on a question. He was refreshing and fun to talk with...overall extremely helpful.
Overall the apartment was what we expected and certainly worth the price that was asked. There were a few things that need repairs, but it was our understanding that the owner was coming to town in the next few weeks and that those issues would be dealt with. The kitchen was stocked with ample dishware, utensils, pots and pans, and almost anything else a renter would want. Although it was listed in the description that there was no hairdryer, there was one.
We throughly enjoyed our stay and would return.
