This condo was very nice for our trip to the Boston area. Check-in was easy. The condo was very clean. Off-street parking was definitely a plus. It is only a 5-min walk to the closest grocery store, and a 10-min walk to the Central Square red line T station. It's about a 15 to 20-min walk to Harvard Square, where there are a lot of shops and restaurants.

Great location in Cambridge!

Outstanding location in Cambridge. Super short walk to Whole Foods, and convenient to restaurants, MIT and Harvard. Had a wonderful stay with singular exception of upstairs neighbors having a loud party after 12:30 AM on a Wednesday. Otherwise, five stars all the way.

Great location but noisy upstairs and no cable

The positive- location was good and our bed was comfortable. Negatives - for the price there was no cable tv, sparse kitchen; very noisy upstairs and to the side in building. The floor was badly scratched up and the furniture was uncomfortable. One bedroom’s box spring was not the right size for the mattress. There was zero art on the walls so it felt uninviting.

Graduation trip

The description of the property was accurate. Easy check-in, clean, had pretty much everything we needed for a 6 day stay. It was easy getting in and out of the property and on-site parking was a must for us. We drove back and forth from Cambridge into Boston and this location made that very convenient.
