Location was extremely close to the Boston Common which was nice for morning walks. However the walk to the waterfront was a bit longer then expected. We ended taking the subway most places due to this which was easy to navigate. There is a 7/11 just across the street with a CVS opening soon. Apartment was located on the 4th floor which made it difficult to bring our luggage up and also groceries. Place was clean and the location felt safe. Overall good place for Boston for the price.
