I had booked this apartment for my parents, who had some issues getting access to Airbnb. Adriana was a perfect host for them! She was very friendly and helpful, helping them out with local recommendations and some Boston basics. It was very good that she is living close by, so they felt a bit more assured that in case of questions or emergencies there would be someone around. The apartment was very nice, clean and well equipped. Adriana greeted them personally and showed them around. There was water in the fridge and all kitchen essentials like coffee, spices, etc were available for cooking.
The area was quiet, but still in a perfect location to take the T downtown (max 5min walk to Jackson Square Station). In short walking distance are small grocery shops, restaurants and other shops.
