Walking distance from the Boston Common, Financial District, North End, South End and Southie! This part of town is commonly named Downtown Crossing as most of the city`s Subway`s or (T-lines) intersect at Park Street station and Downtown Crossing T stop. The State Street and Park Street stations are within close walking distance. Silver Line service is also available. You can get literally anywhere in the city for a few dollars and a Tpass.

The apartment building is located on a downtown street which means it`s not super quiet for automobile traffic, and definitely has the lively city feel as foot traffic is sure to be noticeable any time of day, even in the winter.

Important to note is that lately there has been a gathering of homeless people during the day and night, right outside the 7/11 around the corner. The high foot-traffic provides them opportunities to pan-handle. Please use your caution, and common sense. We`ve never had an issue, but for folks visiting from towns and rural settings may find this surprising, even concerning.

We`ve taken measures to make sure our guests are very safe and comfortable during their stays. The building is monitored in shifts and sweeps by our security partner. The Boston Improvement Department does nightly walks of the property and nearby streets. There is also on-site security in the Arch Street building 24/7.

Some of the best takeout and restaurants spots may have temporarily closed from Covid, but we`re confident the area will be very livable for your stay!

Shipping up to Boston? We put together a great guide filled with information for getting around the city and beyond!

Downtown Boston is easy to navigate. It’s compact, walkable, has an abundance of taxis, yes they still exist! And Uber`s are always a tap away. What makes Boston so accessible is it`s public transportation system. Driving downtown can be a challenge with its dated road layout and limited parking options but, it’s the most convenient option for travel outside of Boston Proper.

The MBTA is Boston’s public transportation system, and it’s a great way to get around quickly and cheaply. The “T” refers to the subway, which runs throughout Boston, into Cambridge, and into nearby suburbs, providing access to all the attractions located in Boston. Just look for the big `T` in a circle to find a stop.

You can also take buses to get all over the city, and the Commuter Rail is an easy way to get to points outside of Boston. You can buy paper “Charlie Tickets” for single or multiple subway rides at vending machines located in most stations. When your ticket runs low, visit a fare vending machine to add value. A single basic fare for the T is $2.75 with a Charlie Ticket, although if you pick up a Charlie Card (a plastic card like a credit card), the fare is lower at $2.25 for one way. You can load the Charlie Card with an amount of your choosing, so it`s smart way to explore the city. They`re available at almost every T stop, and are free to get. Once on board, hang on! Being one of the oldest public transportation systems in the country, the T is not always the smoothest ride.

Parking. or `Paahking` is hard to find, expensive (by most tourists accounts) and is best done in lots or garages for peace of mind. Please check out a website called `Spot Hero` to find the most updated options and prices!

In this section we want to stress that in all City apartments, in all neighborhoods, there is the possibility of noise at night. Many times it is completely out of our control. We can provide noise machines and earplugs, but we will not refund any stays that are shortened or cancelled because of noise from construction, traffic, neighbors, or pedestrian noise. Boston is a major American metropolis, it comes with its beauty and it`s noise. This will be noted in our house rules, and when bookings are confirmed, it is a contract that you, the guest, is agreeing to. We also want to make it known that the entrance to the building has a bit of a funky access - from the street level you enter into a back stairwell and you head up a flight of stairs to the first floor. From here, you can find the stairwell or elevator to top floors. There is also another entrance through the glass revolving doors at 101 Arch Street and an entrance on the left which will take you to the first floor lobby where you`ll easily find the stairs and elevator.
Thanks for booking with us. We look forward to hosting you. We ask that all guests please read and review our house rules below. A booking is a confirmation that you have read and agree to our house rules.

House Rules
The following rules are to protect our property and ensure a comfortable, predictable stay for all of our guests. By making a booking with us, you agree to all of our rules and the fees they carry if they are broken.

Additional Guest
Each guest that enters the apartment over the number of guests shown in your booking is subject to a fee of $20/per night. We define a guest as anyone who enters the apartment. If you have a 3 night booking and have 2 additional guests in, we calculate the fee at $20fee*2guests*3nights = $180. Please keep this in mind when planning your trip. This is meant to curb parties and other loud gatherings which helps us to provide a quiet environment for all guests.

Pets Policy
Dogs require an additional $200 non refundable fee which is required for a full deep cleaning of the apartment. This is a specialized cleaning that is required of our Hospital Partners as we provide medical short term housing. This provides a comfortable experience for the next guest. Unless you have permission from us, no cats are allowed in our units and will be subject to a $500 fine. Any pets found to be in the apartment without our knowledge will be subject to a $500 fine.

Parties, Smoking, Noise
As a provider of medical stay housing, we have a zero-tolerance policy and do not allow any smoking, parties, loud music, or disturbances. Any instance of breaking these rules can result in your booking being immediately canceled. Security will be summoned and Police will also be involved. A $250 fine will be charged for the use of our security team for any noise complaints that require intervention. We use surveillance technology in the way of cameras in the common areas and exterior of the building, we will use this to verify that rules are not broken. There are no cameras inside the apartments.

Quiet Hours
Quiet hours are after 11pm. Please respect your neighbors. If a neighbor is disturbing you after hours, please confirm which unit the noise is coming from and reach out to us. We will do our best to communicate with the tenant and can also send our security team to help. We can not guarantee that the noise is one of our guests, so we may not be able to remedy, but will always try.

Noise
As with all city apartments there is the possibility of noise from neighbors, traffic, construction. This apartment is located in Downtown Boston. We can provide white noise machines or earplugs, but will not refund a stay for noise complaints.

Parking
Parking is not included with the booking. Parking in general is difficult in Boston, so please check Spot Hero for local parking prices and options.

Condition of Apartment & Damages
It is your responsibility as the guest to report any damage you find inside the apartment within the first 4 hours of check-in. We do thorough maintenance checks, but sometimes, we miss things. When this happens we will confirm that the damage was not your responsibility. However, if no damage is reported within the first 4 hours of the booking, and there is damage found at the end of your stay, the replacement and repair value will be the responsibility of the guest. By reporting some issues in the first 4 hours we can confirm the condition and free you of responsibility.

Early Check-in & Late Check-Out
If you want to check in early or check out late, you must request the option at least 24 hours in advance. Our early check-in time is 2:00pm. Our late check-out time is 1:00pm. The cost for either of these is $50. If you are in the apartment after the check-out time, you will be assessed a $100 late-check-out fee for every hour beyond the check-out time. All ECI and LCO are subject to our approval and availability. We are not responsible for guest belongings after check-out time. Your items will be left in the hallway and our teams will clean the unit immediately.

Pre-check-out condition
Dishes will be placed in the sink or in the dishwasher. Our team will take pictures of your unit condition upon check-out. If there is excessive trash in the unit upon check-out we will charge an additional $100 deep clean fee.
