We went to Boston for our daughter's graduation in May. The weather was nice, and the apartment's location was ideal for our needs. (Northeaster University)
Transportation via Uber was quick, and the nearest subway (T) at Fenway was only 7 min walk. Easy access.
There were plenty of good places to eat. Our graduation ceremony was at Fenway Park, which was a quick and easy 10 min walk.
Suggestion for visiting Boston: Don't rent a car except for when you need it for a day trip. Parking is for residents only. Instead of renting a car from the airport, I took the (T) subway from Fenway to Arlington, and there, 3 car rental companies were good. (Hertz, Dollar, Thrifty)
Walking and touring was a bit intimidating at first, but we walked on average 20,000 steps (from our health app on the phone) which equates to about 8 miles a day.
The accommodation was like being a part of the resident of Boston. It was very different from my California life style. But that's the fun of traveling. You adjust to the new city and its culture, walking the streets and eating the foods.
We had a very enjoyable stay.
