The pros: Location is perfect for anyone visiting Northeastern University. Lots of shops and restaurants right outside the front door to the building. Clean kitchen area with all the equipment you need to cook a meal and eat it at a proper table. Nice, new furniture in kitchen and bedrooms. Comfortable beds with clean sheets. Small but useful living room area with sofa and new television that has Netflix. Good water pressure and plenty of hot water in shower.
The cons: Apartment is located over top of several restaurants, and commercial fan systems run around the clock outside the apartment's windows. Windows to other apartments are directly across a small area, so need to keep shades closed at all times to ensure privacy. Not a single picture on any wall. Window air conditioners very loud when compressors kick in. Bathroom needs to be remodeled... porcelain in tub/ shower is scraped and pealing noticeably. Bathroom was okay but could have been cleaner.
Overall: Boston is a very expensive place to stay. If you don't mind the shortcomings listed under "The Cons," then this apartment is a reasonable value for the money.
