I wanted to love Paolo's location but came away feeling it was okay. Paolo was very responsive and his local man, Ralph, was excellent. The location was great, particularly for access to the Freedom Trail sites, the TD Garden, and great food (Rocco's, Theo's, Mike's & Modern Pastry). The apartment itself left a bit to be desired, even understanding it is in an older building with some quirks. First, if you need any level of darkness to sleep, this is not the place for you. It sorely needs some dark curtains to dampen the two very bright streetlamps immediately outside the apartment. There is no dresser or closet to put luggage/clothes and no end tables near the bed, so your stuff ends up lying all over the apartment. The WiFi network never came up, the TV remote is taped together, and things are dated. Lastly, the upstairs neighbor seems to enjoy dragging furniture across the floor for approximately 30 minutes at 3am every morning. A nearby "luxury" hotel was cheaper/nicer.
