Definitely a nice place to stay in Boston for a few months. Elena is really a nice host, immediately addressing your needs whenever asked. The room is cozy and it makes you feel at home. The laundromat is pretty close (within 5 - 10 min walk) and there are several grocery stores nearby. Moreover, there are various Asian restaurants nearby. Definitely a good choice for people having take-outs. As for the daily commute, there is a train station within 3 min walk, and three buses stops (for 64, 66, 57) are just within 10 min walk. Many ways to get to the city within 30 minutes.
