Marisa and Bryan were very nice and workaholics just like me since I only saw them twice during my four days in Boston. Cambridge is a very nice city and the location of the apartment was very safe, given that I traveled alone and walked around quite a bit (never felt scared).

The only note I would mention, is for those who have asthma it can be a bit difficult to breathe on the third floor (where the apartment is located). I have mild asthma and my solution was the keep the ac on in the room during my stay which seemed to do the trick. I also visited Boston in the summer so I'm sure at different seasons it might not be as bad.
