My family and a group of friends stayed here for the Boston Marathon. My husband was running and we had a large support group with us, so it was challenging to find accommodations for our large group without having to secure 3-4 hotel rooms. Elisangela’s place worked out perfect!
The apartment was clean and spacious offering sleeping options for 10 people easy. The gathering space for the group is limited to the living room (which can also be used as a bedroom) and the kitchen area/table. But we made it work as the kids ended up hanging out in the larger bedroom together and the adults sat around the kitchen table to talk and make sightseeing plans. One bathroom for 10 people can be challenging, but we worked through it just fine. The bathroom was spacious and clean and it was helpful to find some basic amenities throughout the house like soap, shampoo, hairdryer, and several things in the kitchen like spices, evoo, sugar, creamer, etc. Elisangela was very responsive and having her and her family living there on-site was nice as she was available to answer questions and she helped us with our grocery delivery.
There is a set of steep stairs from the front door leading up to the apartment on the second floor so be prepared for that with your luggage, etc. It was super convenient to get to/from the airport using the free airport shuttle to the Airport Station of the T and then walking about 6 blocks. We utilized both the subway and Uber to get around the city with the blue line subway being in such close proximity to the apartment. I thought there would be more noise from the airport considering how close we were but surprisingly there was not much noise at all.
