Great neighborhood with close proximity to Boston and the subway
Great apartment in beautiful old building. Everything we could need was provided. Hosts were on site if we needed anything but did not interfere with our privacy. We would love to return to Boston and stay here again!
A gem. Outstanding apartment, excellent neighborhood. Furnished to a T. Great location to walk Boston, right on Freedom Trail, close to North End Italian restaurants.A all around. Nice owner Cindy greeted us at check in, with wealth of information.
Great location down the block from Bunker Hill monument
Wonderful unit with all the amenities and necessities and very nice, helpful host. Good central location with access to Boston sites and adjacent to the Freedom Trail. My wife and I had a great time.
This was an incredible place to stay. Our first time in Boston and this was close to the Freedom Trail, tour buses, the USS Constitution, an inexpensive ferry to downtown and many other sights.
Our stay was amazing! The location was right in the middle of so many historical sites. I loved grabbing a cup of coffee each morning and walk the beautiful neighborhood. The home had all the amenities we needed to be comfortable and our host went above and beyond to help us figure out the subway.
This was a perfect location, and very walkable to most of Boston’s frequently visited sites. Cindy and Arthur were great hosts; if I’m in town again I’m staying here!
I cannot say enough wonderful things about this property. The hosts were incredibly helpful and nice; the property is in a beautiful, safe location. It was impeccably clean and comfortable. Highly recommend!
Great location, very comfortable, use of courtyard. We would book again.
Rooms were close to transportation, shopping, etc. and very clean. Host provided umbrellas, reusable shopping bags, etc. which we appreciated. We were very comfortable and enjoyed our stay very much.
We thoroughly enjoyed our stay here! The location is everything we could have asked for. Super charming apartment with all the amenities you need. The most pleasant surprise was the private courtyard which was perfect for early mornings or sunsets. The hosts Cindy and Arthur were the epitome of northern hospitality. Would definitely recommend staying here. We will certainly book here again when visiting Boston!
We were so lucky to spend 4 nights in this beautiful apartment in a beautiful area of Boston. Cindy and Arthur have created a real home from home for their guests. After a busy day's sightseeing it was lovely to come back to this quiet haven of tranquility. The apartment is tastefully furnished and extremely well equipped with a private patio..perfect for relaxing with a glass of wine. Good shops and bakery nearby and an easy walk to the subway. We would love to stay here again!
We had a wonderful time in Boston, a time we will never forget, in large part due to our first Vrbo experience in Cindy and Arthur’s beautiful home which had everything to make our stay comfy and cozy, just like home. We loved it!
Property is well located, clean and very well appointed. Lots of nice little touches. Owners live upstairs and are lovely people. Will definitely stay here again and again.
