While the townhouse is near a main street, it is not that noisy. It was very clean and organized. There is one main area with a TV with plenty of seating. All the bedrooms offer privacy and are spacious. Actually the townhouse is quite big so I never felt I was I was getting in anybody's way.
The owners left cereal, coffee, fruit and spices.
The location is close to downtown, MIT, Harvard and walking distance to Whole Foods, Starbucks and a few other local restaurants/coffee shops.
I suggest this rental for a large group.
