It was a beautiful place. The property was immaculate. There is very little street parking, but we did park in a nearby garage. The subway station is a short walk. The neighborhood is extremely safe and fairly quiet.

Overall, great stay. My initial concern was the street parking around the property because we had rented a car. However, that ended up being pretty easy. The unit was clean and had a great feel. The location was awesome. Walked down to the Charles River and drove over to Fenway and the North End. We loved our time. The host was super responsive.
