Great location, convenient to all the downtown Boston attractions and public transit options. Safe and secure inside the marina gates, surrounded by beautiful boats and yachts. Amenities are similar to an RV, so be mindful of the small shower, plastic toilet, etc. no issue for my family, we loved our stay.

Came for marathon weekend. This is a little off the beaten path, but perfect for an insane weekend. Kids loved the loft. We would usually do the 20-30 min walk into the city, otherwise Uber is great. Beautiful location, peaceful - would stay again in a heartbeat!

The boat and the Navy Yard/ wharf area were awesome! Sherrie checked us in and made sure we had everything we needed and was super helpful. The area was full of history and felt super safe. My little boy ran on the wharf in the morning as the sun came up and my girls took pictures in the area after dark. It was an awesome experience all around. Highly recommend!
