My wife and I went to Boston for our mini-moon after just getting married (we'll be going on our full honeymoon overseas in a few months). This is a great spot which is about 15-20 minutes away from Boston by car, with all the essentials fairly close by and convenient. We even took the T in from Malden Center which was about a 10-minute drive, and about a 30-minute train ride to North Station.
Wally was an awesome host, making the check-in and check-out process simple. He also offered suggestions on areas to check out during our stay and stayed in contact with us during our time there.
If you're looking for a spot near Boston that isn't as congested or busy, but still accessible to everything Boston has to offer, we'd definitely recommend staying with Wally!
