Spacious, well-equipped apartment in the perfect location for exploring metro Boston. A classic building, but has an elevator so being on the 5th floor was not an issue. We were within walking distance to practically everything...waterfront, Freedom Trail, North End, Boston Common and Public Garden...only used mass transit to get to & from the airport. Plenty of restaurants and bars within a block or two. Can be a little noisy in the morning due to construction nearby, but really not too bad. A great alternative to more expensive hotels in the area.
