It seemed like my stay at Hermina's was just what I could have ordered: a less than 1-hour commute to/from Logan Airport on public transit (even on a Sunday); a pay-one-price access to unlimited rides on the "T" (as the local transit system is known, short for the MBTA), such as a 7-day pass for riding the buses and subways for $15; a 5-minute walk from the closest train station to the house; a diversified community; access to a clean kitchen, dining room, and shower pretty much anytime I needed them; a pretty tranquil setting, even with a full house of guests there all at once. While there are chances to mingle with others staying there, if you like you could also keep to yourself without any difficulty. Somewhere as metropolitan as Boston is going to offer a lot of choices for someone to consider staying at; but, if you're going to be in this area, Hermina's place deserves to be at the top of the list. I will strongly consider staying there again on my next trip to Beantown. Much thanks to Hermina and Tigran.
