Trip to Brigham Women's MS Center

everything was perfect! I was so nervous about getting to my appointment on time, and I was easily able to walk there. I barely took 10 minutes and it was a beautiful walk. It definitely was a distance from downtown, but the area was absolutely beautiful and we were able to Uber anywhere we wanted to go. Amazing visit!!

We completely understand how important it is to feel confident about logistics, especially when heading to a medical appointment, so it’s great that the short walk helped ease your nerves. It’s also fantastic that you appreciated the beautiful surroundings and found it easy to get around, even with a bit of distance from downtown. We’re so glad your visit left such a positive impression. We would be pleased to host you again, offering a selection of units closer to downtown. Safe travels!

The apartment is clean, convenient, and located within walking distance of hospitals, grocery stores, pharmacies, and restaurants. The host staff are most responsive to our needs and questions. The apartment is located in an older building but modernized and well maintained. In fact, the kitchen was the best equipped of any where we’ve stayed Additional items for personal use and convenience were left for us.
