Courtenay's place was a beautiful apartment with all of the touches of an artist/designer. She made sure to have all of the kitchen needs (pots, pans dishes, cooking utensils) for a long stay making it easy for our family — with two children — to stay for the 5 weeks we did, cooking everyday, and keeping on with our routine. The neighborhood is quiet and family friendly, yet within short walking distance to Wayland Square complete with two coffee shops, a diner, a few dinner restaurants, and other shops. Easily accessible to/from the highway. I definitely recommend Courtenay's place.
