Sweet Little Place / Easy Access to MTBA

Two mothers and three daughters converged from Missouri and Puerto Rico to check out a concert in Boston - super fun time - this place was easy to get to trains and much more affordable than staying downtown - we had a great stay.

Medford Stay

We were a mile from the site we needed to visit plus a mile from Davis Square, an easy walk so it was not necessary to use the car. The apartment is more spacious than we had imagined with high ceilings, and since it is in the back it was quiet. Another plus is ample parking in the rear. The apartment is nestled in a sweet retail area with three lovely bakeries and a good selection of restaurants.

A treasure in Medford

This place was a delight! It was super clean and comfy. All of the rooms were spacious: we could have staged a square dance in the living room! There is a countertop fancy toaster oven in the kitchen to take the place of a larger appliance. About a 12-15 minute walk to Tufts. And, the neighborhood is full of bakeries and coffee shops, and ice cream too! Marcela checked in daily, AND let me drop my bags early which was helpful. It felt like home.
