Elisangela responded quickly to any of the questions I had and the check-in/check-out process was seamless. Her place looks exactly like the photos posted and is a great deal for the number of people that it can accommodate given its location in East Boston proper. She has many local recommendations and has prepared material for any curious tourist. When we were cooking in her well-equipped kitchen, we accidentally set off the smoke detector twice, and she came right in and helped us with the situation :) We'd gladly stay there again and would recommend it wholeheartedly.
