Ernesto, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

While the property was undergoing an upgrade which made parking more difficult (we did obtain on-street), this is a great location for exploring Harvard Square and the room was comfortable. Staff was accommodating in helping re parking. Good overall, could be excellent after restoration.
Thomas, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Small room but very convenient location with lots of restaurants and stores in walking distance. The staff was very nice and helpful giving us many dining suggestions in walking distance.
Collin, 2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Fantastic value, great stay. I had lived in Cambridge for about six years and moved recently and I needed a one night stay before some friends could host me for a longer duration. This was just perfect for my needs and I could easily have stayed longer very comfortably.
Sarah, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Comfortable stay: very nicely located, and we’ll kept gem in safe quiet area w/ many nearby dining options.
Silvia, 4-night trip

8/10 Very good

Elegant feel and very comfort bed. Our room was very small with no room for opening luggage. The staff was very helpful, particularly Ryan. So nice to have espresso and bottled water available all the time.
Barbara, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

The service was great — everyone was helpful and kind. The infrastructure was not so good! The tv didn’t work and remained stuck on one cable channel… and the shower was VeRY difficult to operate (had to call maintenance to turn the nozzle for the shower)… I’m gen x — not an old woman — and I’ve never been unable to turn on a shower without help in a hotel before.
