My husband & I planned a trip to the North East, stopping in Boston for a few days. This basement apartment has been newly remodeled. The new mattress is firm but extremely comfortable. Coffee & a small refrigerator are provided. Don't want to drive into the city? NO PROBLEM!! Not only are you a few blocks from the green line (train) that can take you to basically any of the city's attractions but also the host allows you to park your car IN their driveway free of charge. This is a huge plus given the fact that parking in Boston is outrageous. In the evenings, we ate & hung out with some locals at a bar & grill down the street. Our hosts were extremely gracious but still gave us our privacy. We will be back & will definitely stay here!
