The apartment I stayed in was large and beautiful and well-equipped with a full kitchen and two bedrooms, living room and dining room, and nice views out of the windows (I was on the uppermost floor). It was a reasonable walk to the subway, and I felt safe doing that walk. One issue - some people staying in other apartments had problems with getting the proper lock codes at open their doors (one couple hung out in my apartment until they got their code). We both called the contact number we had been given, and had to leave voicemail messages. It was a long time until they got a callback and their correct door code; I never got a callback. That's a problem that should be addressed. The only other downside was the substantial cleaning charge. For a larger group (e.g., a family – I was staying by myself) and a longer stay (to amortize the cleaning cost), it would be a good bargain. I would use this location again for a week-long family vacation in Boston - that's the ideal use for it.
