This apartment was perfect for our family of four. Each teenager had their own bedroom. We visited during the heat wave, and the air conditioner worked great. The area is very walkable. There are lots of restaurants and bakeries nearby. It is an easy walk to Boston Common and to the Long Wharf area where we could take a ferry over to Charlestown. We did not have a car, and parking near the apartment would definitely be a challenge. We did see some public parking lots about a 10 minute walk away. If you are looking to see a lot of the historic sites in Boston, this is a great location.
