This location really can't be beat. An easy one-block walk to the subway, Boston Common and the Freedom Trail. If you're planning to stay in the city, there's absolutely no need for a car. The apartment was as pictured—clean with modern upgrades and plenty of character (those brick walls!). Though there is room for improvement. The couch was dreadful and some basic kitchen necessities were absent (e.g., cutting board, coffee filters) but there's a grocery store a short walk away. Unfortunately the microwave did not work upon our arrival and while Brian did his best to help rectify the situation, the issue was not resolved during the duration of our 4-night stay. All things considered, I would stay here again! The location was superb and it was lovely to have our family together vs. separated in hotel rooms.
