I really enjoyed my stay in Boston's North End. The bedroom is larger then it appears in the photos and the apartment is generally in good condition. We were only in the apartment really to sleep, so the lack of TV and Kitchen space were no problem at all. If you're in the North End, you need to be getting out anyway.

The walls are thin (as others mentioned), and this works both ways, you will hear everyone else in the building and they will also hear you.

When we initially arrived a friend was breaking apart a bag of ice in the bathtub (thinking he'd avoid a mess), but this instead made an echoing noise through the building and we were "checked in on" ... I had flash backs to living in college dorms and having an RA suddenly appear in my room ... but the host was very polite and just wanted to make sure we weren't there to "party".

Overall a nice place to stay and a nice weekend.
