The place was impeccably clean and the area was safe and walkable. The host was very accommodating and thoughtful. The first day I was stuck inside because of a major snowstorm. The host had parking available right in front and warned that I would not be able to get out the first day. The place had very interesting books to read and cable so we weren’t bored. There are restaurants and a Whole Foods that’s walking distance which I mentioned to the host that I wanted to buy wine at Whole Foods. He informed me that they don’t sell alcohol there and sent a bottle of wine to my door! The host was very attentive and gave great advice on where to go. Oh, and the train station was a 5min walk that takes you to downtown Boston in about 15mins which is very convenient.
