Apartments are extremely nice and offer top of the line appliances. The concierge staff is extremely helpful and professional. In addition, if you run into any maintenance issues they are resolved ASAP

The staff is amazing, and they really listen to the residents' needs and suggestions. Bonus: No pet fee, so there are cute puppies everywhere!

Very welcoming! Maintenance team is very efficient and fast. I have no dog so I would appreciate if the dog owner be careful with their dogs (sofa, couch with dog hair) The gym is also A+ (although I would add one machine for the legs).

It's a excellent complex, with all sorts of grade A amenities...the 6th floor is amazing. Pretty much trumps all other concierge buildings in Boston, more on par with NYC living. Nice people too, which makes everything much better!
