Whether a Boston newcomer or veteran, Jason's place is a perfect launching point to explore. Price out a hotel in the area and compare it to Jason's place, and you'll find that Jason's place is hands down the winner both economically and in luxury.
Best points
1) 5 min walk to Charles/MGH T Stop. Get yourself a 7 day Charlie Card and reach any part of the city quickly. Boston is fantastic and surprisingly small and very walkable.
2) Beacon Hill. The best neighborhood to walk and explore both historically and architecturally.
3) The Esplanade. A stones throw away from a walk or run on the banks of the Charles.
4) Layout. Perfect lounge/kitchen/bedroom layout. Spacious and well appointed.
5) Dunkin Donuts! (ok this is a nostalgia pick)
Only downer
1) It's a basement apartment with windows that let a little light in and steep stairs to enter. In no way is this a deal breaker. Privacy is excellent because of this.
So I'd stay here again without hesitation. It's a bargain at almost any cost. Bonus...the leather sofa is perfect to lounge in.
