We LOVED our stay at Alicia's place in Boston! The location was perfect for us, as this was our first time in the city and we really wanted to just explore and take in all that Boston has to offer. We parked our car for the week in a garage that Alicia had suggested--Pilgrim Parking. I would recommend this garage to anyone staying at Alicia's place for several days. The price was reasonable, compared to other garages in the area, it is clean, felt safe, well-lit, and is close-by. Without a car, we were able to easily walk to local shops, restaurants, and attractions. The T is only a few blocks away, making getting to farther sights easy. There are also Ubers and taxis readily available. The apartment is in a charming building. It worked great for my boyfriend and me! It was clean and felt safe/secure. The building and apartments also use code locks which is super simple--no keys to deal with! The only things that I can see as being a nuisance to others (though these really didn't bother us much, we aren't picky) are: thin walls (if you like total silence or are a light sleeper you may be able to hear your neighbors), climbing the stairs to the 4th floor (again, this didn't bother us one bit, but for others, this may be an issue, just be mindful that the apartment is on the 4th floor), some things in the apartment could use updating (iron was broken, ironing board did not have a cover on it) but that was the least of my worries--the location trumped all of the minor details. I'd recommend this place to anyone who wants a great location in a lovely neighborhood! We would love to stay again!
