In short if you are looking for a cost effective rental one step above a youth hostel in a newly gentrifying Boston neighborhood with the rarity of off street parking and close proximity to the Longwood Medical area, or any of the E line colleges this unit is fine. However, please be warned, the unit is very very loud— between the window AC units ( aka open windows in a first floor apartment 1 block from the T which runs 5a-1a….very loud street noise) and the obvious college kids living both upstairs and in the adjoining apartment you will unlikely have any quiet hours in this unit. There was a party both above us and in the adjoining unit ( separated only by a door like adjoining hotel rooms) and yelling, singing, and crashing sounds most evening and early morning hours during our stay, plus a lot of loitering outside the unit. Also, be warned with pot legal in Boston, the unit reeks whenever the neighbors are home, so would not bring younger family members or those opposed to pot here here. Also, the views mentioned in the ad are not from this unit but from a short walk down Tremont Street. In fairness we did not reach out to the host, but, this listing should have disclosed that this unit is surrounded by and adjoining by a door to college rental units.
