We loved our apartment. My son and I each had our own bedroom. I stayed in the one near the street and barely noticed any street noise. He had no noise from the back bedroom. The apartment was very comfortable and clean and had everything we needed. The locations was great too: subway station a five-minute walk; Starbucks next door; Whole Foods Market kitty corner; two excellent restaurants within a three-minute walk; located just below the Bunker Hill Monument. Easy walking distance to the USS Constitution. Loved it.
Perfect area, close to the T, groceries, coffee and other needs. Neighborhood felt safe.
Home had everything needed, including W/D. Will definitely come back!
Very nice place! Very clean and well stocked with everything you would need! Parking was difficult to find but no other complaints at all. Warren’s Tavern was a very cool place to eat!
Traditional old apartment, full of character.Well equipped and great location. Helpful host. We enjoyed our stay though were barely in the apartment, as there is so much to do nearby.
The townhouse was is a historic neighborhood and near several amenities. It was clean and had everything we needed. Great location for our visit to Boston.
We had a wonderful stay in this property in Charlestown! The apartment was very clean and comfortable and gorgeous. The window units were plenty to keep us cool. Location is fantastic - easy walking distance to both bus and T lines, and grocery store and restaurants. Easy access to downtown Boston. Would love to stay here again. Checkout was super easy too.
Fabulous home, it had everything we needed and more. Restaurants nearby were fantastic. Your home is decorated beautifully and we loved the high ceiling. Highly recommend!!
Beautiful home and would totally stay here again! Would suggest Uber or train for getting around. I would not rent a car for this location. Very tricky finding parking. Really great restaurants in walking distance and things to see and do! Sad we had to leave. The host was very helpful and very responsive with the parking situation.
A great place for Marathon weekend. Easy access to all that the city has to offer. So much to do nearby as well. Hosts were easy to communicate with and accommodating. Unit was exactly as described.
