We had a wonderful stay in this property in Charlestown! The apartment was very clean and comfortable and gorgeous. The window units were plenty to keep us cool. Location is fantastic - easy walking distance to both bus and T lines, and grocery store and restaurants. Easy access to downtown Boston. Would love to stay here again. Checkout was super easy too.

Boston feels
Beautiful home and would totally stay here again! Would suggest Uber or train for getting around. I would not rent a car for this location. Very tricky finding parking. Really great restaurants in walking distance and things to see and do! Sad we had to leave. The host was very helpful and very responsive with the parking situation.
