Nice room set up with room safe and mini fridge. bath room is very small. Extra pillows and nice linens. Free all day coffee in lobby nice. Great Harvard square location
Excellent location in the middle of Harvard Square, and for a fee, parking was also included. Well-maintained and clean with a friendly staff. I will definitely go back. This was a relatively quiet time which I appreciated. I'm assuming it would be very busy seasonally such as during Harvard events.
Nice no-frills hotel in the middle of Harvard Square; perfect if you’re visiting the area. It has a small coffee/water area next to the reception. 4 stars because I got asked 3 times by housekeeping whether they could come in; make sure you put the “do not disturb” sign on the door. Would definitely recommend to others.
Cool hotel for a stay in Harvard Sq. I walked to the Brattle Theater, which is right down the street, for a movie. Then had a late drink and snack at Noir, which is at the Charles Hotel next door. Great shops and atmosphere.
