East Cambridge stay.A stay at this East Cambridge vacation home places you within half a mile (1 km) of Massachusetts Institute of Technology and 2 miles (3 km) of TD Garden. Boston Common and Boston Harbor are also within 2 miles (3 km).
Escape to a 1,400 sq ft luxury townhouse in the heart of East Cambridge, featuring a private street-level entrance and two designer suites — including a primary suite with a motorized adjustable king bed. Every stay begins fully stocked: Pellegrino sparkling water, spring water, Starbucks coffee pods, French press and Lipton tea, farm eggs, and Häagen-Dazs on arrival, plus bathrobes, slippers, and spa-grade bath essentials in both bathrooms. Guests also enjoy complimentary seasonal access to a private outdoor pool at our sister property, just a 5-minute walk away. Steps from Lechmere Station (Green Line), MIT and Kendall Square’s biotech and tech corridor, and the Charles River Esplanade. A great base for business travelers too — Microsoft’s R&D center at One Memorial Drive is just a 5–7 minute walk, with Google and other major tech companies nearby as well. Harvard is 15 minutes by T, Massachusetts General Hospital is one stop away, and Logan Airport is a 15-minute drive. The home includes a fully equipped kitchen with dishwasher, in-unit washer and dryer, dedicated workspace, and 1GB fiber WiFi. Building amenities include a fitness center, lounge, coworking space, outdoor courtyard, and BBQ area — accessible via your provided key fob. Free garage parking available upon request. Hosted by Sara, Superhost, with a 100% response rate. We’re here throughout your stay for anything you need.
This is the single version to paste in — no old text left underneath it. Want the Airbnb/Direct description updated the same way with the Microsoft R&D line added too, so both platforms stay consistent?
