Really easy and streamlined check-in process. The place is clean and nice and all the doors have locks. Towels were provided, which was appreciated. Kitchen with supplies is readily available. The location really isn't bad. I walked through the neighborhood at night with no concern for my safety. If you pass the commuter rail (purple train) station near by, the area does get a little more rough. That being said there's no need to go there since the bus and train lines are so accesible.
Good host communication, I'd actually repeat stay here if I come back to Boston.
