This was our second stay at Chris & Kristina's place and we still just loved it. The area is where both my sister and father live, so it was virtually pre-approved.
The apartment is totally separate, comfortable and homey. But we had a lovely encounter with Kristina and though we didn't hear the family at all, there's a super nice vibe there and I felt like we could reach out if we needed anything. But we wanted for nothing. It's close to the main road with its shops and restaurants. It's close to the T and many bus lines. It's just the perfect fit for a great Boston trip of living like a local.
