No idea if you are vaxxed or not, nor do I care, but I know that they ask for cards.

Just something to keep in mind if you decide to add them to your rotation...it's not exactly centrally located if you're not already in Somerville, so I wouldn't want you to make the effort to go there if it's an exercise in futility

If you've never been, it's a fun meal. We had to climb so many stairs and walk hallways, if there had been a fire we would have been toast.

Is Revere not safe? I’m supposed to be picking up my rental car on Turo from there.

It’s fine. You won’t be in any danger. But it’s not really a place tourists want to go.

Are you planning on leaving the city at any point?

Yes. Staying in Boston for 2 days at the Sheraton and renting a car from Turo app to go to Camden and Bar harbor for 3 days. We will have to return the car back in Revere. We fly out of Boston early at 7 am. Should we stay the last night in Revere near the airport or in Cambridge or Boston? Any hotel recommendations not to far from the airport?

I wouldn’t stay in Revere. One nice thing about Logan is that it’s very close to the city, so barring any crazy traffic (which can certainly happen, I’m not saying it doesn’t) you can get to the airport pretty quickly from anywhere in the city.

I’d stay in the Seaport or the Longwharf Marriott as they aren’t far from the tunnel, but truly if you’re in Boston proper you’ll get to the airport in under 30 minutes.

Door to door from my place (again, assuming light traffic) takes 20 and I’m not close to the airport at all.

I was only asking about leaving the city because if you were only staying in Boston, you not only don’t need a car, you don’t want one. Driving in the city can be a bitch if you haven’t done it before.

Yes we are only using it to go to Maine. We will not have or need on while in Boston. We are returning it the night before our flight. Thanks for the advice.

I can attest to this lol. I did a bit of driving around the city a couple of weeks ago while awaiting flight time after a trip to Maine. Far and away the most difficult roads and traffic I have driven in.
