Samantha's place was a dream in every respect. She was very responsive to my emails/texts and the key exchange was flawless. To describe the apartment as cozy is selling it short. It is cozy but not in any sort of cramped way. Both the living room and the bedroom are more spacious than most Boston hotel rooms. The coziness comes from the furnishings and the homey atmosphere. The kitchen, although small, has a brand new stainless steel fridge and Sam left us coffee and other goodies to use freely. The neighborhood is half elegant Beacon Hill and half fun-loving West End. There are lots of cool restaurants within not much more than a stone's throw and, yes, there IS a Whole Foods within a 2 minute walk. I cannot recommend Samantha's place highly enough. If you arrive by car there are several parking garages nearby, including one adjacent to Whole Foods.
