Mike’s place is very close to Mass Ave T and has a bus stop almost outside the condo, so really convenient for getting around Boston especially if you invest in a Charlie card which covers the T, buses and train.
Check in process was simple.
Apartment was cool and comfortable with air conditioning and fans, and kitchen was well equipped. Bed was comfortable. Good washer and dryer.
Living room was stylish, but if you are sleeping on the futon it can be noisy as it is on a main road and there were frequent sirens. If this concerns you, earplugs may be the answer.
On a personal note, we wanted to cook and on our first day walked to Tropical Foods, a large supermarket about 15 minutes away, for our provisions. Although not directly approached by anyone, we did not feel very comfortable in this area and shopped elsewhere after that.
