Gerard and Marie were wonderful hosts when we stayed in their beautiful Charlestown apartment recently . The apartment was bright spacious and very comfortable . The kitchen and laundry facilities were excellent. The apartment is in a quiet neighbourhood but is conveniently located within a 10 min walk to the T line, Bus and water taxi for quick travel into Boston . The Wholefood market is nearby for great easy meals options. Gerard could not have been more helpful with advice about everything from baseball games to driving out of Boston . Gerard also drove us into the city to so we could pick up our hire car , despite having a busy schedule of his own .
