This is a great location in Southie! Walking distances to restaurants and shops, and easy into access into Boston. The accommodation is a little quirky - the bedroom is tiny but it's comfy and good sleeping. The bathroom is split with shower and good sink in one area and the toilet with a small sink in another. Took a minute to figure it all out, but for the price the quirkiness is easy to accept. The only real issue was the lack of a space for my suitcase to be laid out. I was a solo traveler to visit my daughter for a weekend. If my husband had joined it would have been tricky. I did find a place to hang clothes in the kitchen the day I was leaving. As I said, a tad quirky, but the price was right. Finally finding the alley was tricky. The address brings you to the front door of the house, but the entrance to this is behind the house via a small side walkway on the side street - you can't pull in with a car in the back alley - just FYI to fellow renters. I'd use it again for a quick visit.

Quaint South end Apt

Boston neighborhood, brownstone basement apt. w/ back entrance down alley type lane. Compact, yet efficient with everything you need. 5 minute walk to bus line, & 10 minute walk to Dorchester bay & castle island beach areas. 10 minute drive to Kennedy Presidential Museum. Great visit to Boston.

South Boston visit

We recently spent 3 nights at this well equipped unit. The basement apartment unit has what we needed and was comfortable for our visit. The unit is located in a quiet residential area but local services (meals, groceries etc) are all available within an easy walk. Bus service to downtown Boston is frequent, cheap and only a couple of blocks away. Nice trails and beaches are also only a few blocks away and perfect for morning or evening walks/jogs. Queen bed was very comfortable and A/C worked great. Minor comments: you will experience some noise from unit above (footsteps, louder noises tv etc) but this did not bother us. The tv did not work but this seems to be a broader internet issue in the immediate area that is known and needs to be addressed. In summary we enjoyed our stay - it was very easy to get to South Station and downtown and it was a nice refuge after full and busy days experiencing downtown Boston.

Great Hosts

My check in was last minute. The hosts went out of their way to get the place ready and we're available at a phone call. Great bed too. Needed sleep after an 18hr journey and 2 days of work. Slept like a baby. Location is great too. Close to the South end and walkable distance to a small beach.

Who Knew South Boston has so much to offer

What a great trip to Boston. The rental was everything it needed to be. It was clean and the owners were very responsive to any questions. It is located just blocks from the South Boston Harbor Walk and bus routes into Boston. We had not trouble finding our way around. We found good restaurants within walking distance and felt safe walking everywhere.
