The apartment made a lovely base for our week in Boston. It was as advertised.Our landlady's mother who lives downstairs made us very welcome, and sorted out the one minor plumbing problem within an hour. Nice quiet neighbourhood in Cambridge; much more restful than Boston appeared to be.Several good cheap places to eat within 10 minutes walk. Would definitely recommend this place to others. Just one suggestion: if coming from the airport with heavy luggage, take a taxi. it feels a long walk from the T if you are carrying stuff.
