North End 2 Bedroom Condo! Near Freedom Trail!
Year Purchased: 2009
Why the Owner Chose Boston
We visited Boston to celebrate Wedding Anniversary #39 and fell in love with the city. We stayed in the North End, where we bought our condo, and could swear that we were in Italy when we walked the neighborhood. Boston offers so much history and so many sights to see. The food was delicious and the ability to walk almost the entire city appealed to us. There are so many different activities to keep us busy.
The Unique Benefits at this Condo
We enjoy the ability to get out and walk the city, seeing so many historic places in the process. We have visited during all seasons of the year and find it to be beautiful in each. There are so many restaurants and bakeries within minutes of the condo. Somehow, I never cook, which suits me fine! The T is an excellent subway system; we don't need a car. I suppose the excitement of the city is our favorite part.

We couldn't have asked for more. The two of us had a wonderful 7 day stay at this immaculately clean and quiet condo; located perfectly between Hanover and Salem Streets. Within walking distance to everything. We felt very safe walking to and from the condo at any hour of the day or night. Neither of our taxi drivers - delivering from the airport and picking us up, had any trouble finding the condo. When I dropped an earring and it went under the bed, I feared not being able to find it. At even the best hotels the earring would have been hard to find among the dust bunnies. No dust bunnies under this bed!! Although there is a washer and dryer in the hall just outside the condo, we found the laundromat on Salem, across from the North Church just as convenient and we could do more loads at once. Although the temperatures were in the mid-90's, the 3 window air conditioners kept the condo comfortable day and night. We took the "T" to the Back Bay twice, and ended up walking 'home' each time. We aren't big city people; Boston didn't seem like a big city to us. We've already told everyone we've talked to about this wonderful condo, it's perfect location and a rental price well within our budget. Our only fear is that the next time we want to rent it, some of those friends will already have it reserved! Thanks Carlos and Cheryl for sharing your condo and making our vacation one that we will always remember.

We just got back from a week in this lovely condo. We were traveling with 3 children--a 14 year old, a 10 year old, and a 1 year old. The location absolutely can't be beat--the day we did the Freedom Trail, we stopped back by the apartment to refill our drink bottles, change the baby's diaper, etc--it's just that convenient. The Old North Church is literally 100 steps away. We took the kids to play at all the area playgrounds and felt like locals. We loved the Italian restaurants and bakeries. Cheryl and Carlos, the owners, were wonderful--we emailed them tons of questions and they always responded with quick and helpful information. They even arranged to have the housekeeper bring us a pack and play for the baby. The girls shared the bedroom with the twin beds--it was a bit cramped but they were happy to have their own room, which they don't get when we stay in a hotel! Cheryl sent info about parking, but we found parking on the street for free just a few blocks away for the days we used our rental car to make day trips to Salem, Lexington & Concord, etc, then we turned in our car and used the metro--the girls' first experience with this; they were pros by the time we left. It was a 10 minute walk to the metro stop. It is on the smaller side, but honestly, it was worth that trade off for the location, and it was TONS more room than we would have gotten in a hotel--and we wouldn't have had the kitchen, living room, or a separate bedroom for the girls. It was very well maintained, clean, and had everything we needed for dinners at home, making coffee, etc. It's on a courtyard so you don't have any street noise as well.

Review Submitted: 01/23/12
This was our second visit and we had an equally enjoyable time. The apartment is very centrally located in the North End, quiet and safe. It is cozy but very clean and neat.Fine for two, but tight for four. It is a good value based on Hotel rates nearby and the fact that it is a small apartment, not one room. We love the North End and are looking forward to staying again next year! Dave and Cindy Massachusetts

My wife & I had a great week's stay at this very clean & comfortable condo. Easy to find, quiet in a safe & friendly neighbourhood. Location is ideal, between Salem St & Hanover St with access to lots of great Italian restaurants in the North End. Only a 10 minute walk to Fanueil Market, the nearest T station (Haymarket). Great communication from the very accommodating owner, Carlos. The heating in the condo was great (we were there mid-December) and facilities just as described (TV, DVD, internet etc.). It was a good job there was a 2nd bedroom in order to fit in all our Christmas gift purchases to take back to England! Would definitely recommend to friends & family and would love to return in the near future. Boston is such a great city, plenty to see, restaurants galore, easy to walk around and navigate and fantastic oysters and seafood. We'd highly recommend Marliave Cafe near Downtown Crossing (Bosworth St) between 4 & 6pm for their superb $1 oysters. We tried everywhere from Neptune, B&G, Island Creek etc. and Marliave's were up there with the very best and elegantly presented on lots of ice as they should be. A friendly bar/restaurant. Go there!

Review Submitted: 12/31/11
My wife and I had a wedding to attend between Christmas and New Year's in Boston and decided to stay for a week. This condo is in the oldest section of Boston - the North End which also happens to be the Italian secton. The condo was nice with a small full but servicable kitchen. We cooked Christmas Eve and Christmas Day dinners in it with no problem. The condo was very clean with lots of necessaries such as towels and kitchen and bath supplies. Lots of books and visitor information which was wonderful. The best part of this condo is it's location. A bit over one block from the Old North Church which puts it almost on the Freedom Trail. Next to Salem and Hanover Streets puts it right in the action of the Italian section with all of its restaurants. The nearest "T" (subway) station is only a 5 minute walk and from here you can get to Harvard/Cambridge in less than 1/2 hour. Franeuil Hall shopping is a 10 minute walk. The ideal place to visit all of the sights in Boston. We will come back when we visit Boston again.

We stayed in this condo in October (4 sisters, 50s and 60s). It was perfect for us. Absolutely spotless. It is small but we got along just fine. It was wonderful to have a refrigerator and be able to make coffee. The North End was a great place to stay - so very walkable and just steps from the Freedom Trail. Fabulous restaurants. We enjoyed it very much and would rent this again.

Perfect location in the North End

This condo delivers everything it promises. It's super clean and comfy and conveniently located. The North End has a true neighborhood feel, so you don't feel like you're staying in a big city. While the street is quiet, right around the corner on Hanover Street are plenty of restaurants (and Mike's Pastries...yum!) and shops and locals going about their daily lives. If you love Italian food, this is the place to stay! A few minutes of walking takes you out of the North End...to historical sights, or more shops, or the T if you want to ride the subway. And it really is steps away from the Freedom Trail. Thanks to Carlos and Cheryl for a great place to stay and making everything so easy!
