Hands down one of the best Airbnb experiences we have ever had.
I don't even think I'll be able to put into words how perfect of a trip this was, and it was mainly due to where we stayed!
LOCATION is key when visiting Boston, and the North End is where it's at.
By staying at Jason's rental, a few steps one way leads you to Hanover with all things Italian, and a few steps the other way leads you in the direction to walk right over the bridge to Bunker Hill & Charleston.
Jason's place is just as pictured/described, and his communication is on point.
The bed is comfortable, the shower has great pressure, getting in/out is a breeze, and I felt 100% safe (those are always my biggest concerns when renting a place).
The rental is clean, comfortable, and has everything you need. We enjoyed it so much that we actually hung out in the living room drinking wine and watching tv a couple of times. The view from the roof deck is amazing, and there's a cute little community garden/sitting area right next to the building as well.
We were fortunate enough to be able to go sailing with Jason's father, Larry - and what a great experience that was! If you have the opportunity to go, make sure you take it.
In my opinion, don't bring a car if you don't have to; we were able to walk everywhere or use Uber/Lyft.
We really enjoyed our dinners at Neptune (don't accept reservations) & Carmelina's (make reservations here).
We got cannolis from Modern Pastry (cash only) - but you'll be fine wherever you go!
We saw a Red Sox/Yankees game at Fenway.
We had brunch at Monument Restaurant & Tavern and then walked to the Bunker Hill Monument and followed the Freedom Trail backwards.
We also very much enjoyed our time at the Sam Adams Taproom & Stanza Dei Sigari (cigar bar).
Pro tip, if your flight isn't until later on the day you have to check out - head over to the aquarium, buy tickets and ask them to hold your luggage - you can check out the aquarium, leave if you need to (we grabbed lunch) and come back, grab your luggage, and grab a ride to the airport.
Additional pro tip, check stubhub for dates you'll be in town to figure out what events are going on - we were able to grab tickets to a concert at The Sinclair, and that was a great time!
Bottom line - all of this was possible and easy due to staying at this rental. Walking distance or a quick Uber/Lyft.
We will always remember this trip! Thank you Jason!!
