Quiet and Comfortable
We spent 10 days at this residence during early May. Temperatures in the area were just right, 55-65 degrees and partly sunny most of the time. Most of our activities were all throughout Boston. We also traveled to Salem and Cape Cod. We did not try the train system but used ride shares, which took about 30-40 minutes to or from central Boston. This home is awesome. It is very clean, nicely decorated, and has a roomy kitchen and comfortable beds. We enjoyed sitting on the front porch and back deck to read or eat breakfast. The one large TV in the living room offered plenty of streaming platforms. Be aware there are interior stairs leading to two bedrooms and a bathroom. The grocery store, several restaurants, and a terrific local ice cream store are only a few minutes' walk. Our favorite restaurant was Steel and Rye, which has delicious made-to-order burgers and a unique Caesar salad. Though the home is technically in Mattapan, which we've heard has a questionable reputation, this area is upscale and beautiful, with friendly residents, and is SO quiet! It was a lovely stay for us.
