Alex was a great host and accomodating, we had an early flight and were able to check in early which was really helpful because we were traveling with a toddler. The apartment is comfortable and has great finishes. There are two levels on the first floor is the living room, kitchen, and dining room and the bathroom and bedroom are down stairs. It is centrally located, we didn't use public transportation this trip but the bus is two blocks away. Which is great because parking in Back Bay, Faneuil Hall and tourist areas is expensive and difficult.
