Kind, present, communicative host. Excellent location for Harvard Sq. without being in the chaos of it. Lovely access to Charles River bike/run path, with a walking loop via Harvard Sq. and the Kennedy School that made a morning outing for coffee and pastries extra pleasant and purposeful with my preschooler. The accommodations are personal, ample, and well-provisioned. Easy to stay as one parent with a little kiddo and could also easily imagine being comfortable with more people. We felt like we had a quiet refuge to relax in as a counterpart to the stimulation of city outings. A Cambridge gem!
