Apartment was very nice. Classic Boston neighborhood with lots of duplex houses. Nice neighborhood and we (two women) felt very safe. Floors and doors a bit squeaky but not an issue for us. You do hear upstairs neighbors but not loud at all and was totally quiet at bedtime (11:00pm for us!). House was only 6 miles from downtown but the traffic! Soccer was happening so I’m sure that contributed to traffic jams.
