Gabriel's apartment was awesome! It was a great location - easy to park on the street, super quick walk to Porter/the T, and very easy to drive outside of the city. It was a great amount of space for our family of 3 and could easily accommodate more. I loved having blankets on the couches and there were plenty of extra pillows and blankets around the apt. You can hear what's going on upstairs and outside, but in Boston it would be hard to avoid that with all of the old houses. We were very comfortable and would highly recommend this apartment to anyone looking to come to the area but not stay right in downtown. It's only a few stops to the city on the T, plus there's a convenience store right at the end of the block, and lots of awesome restaurants and a full grocery store very close by. We would stay here again on another trip!
