    excellent location near Harvard schools. Coffee/bakery a block away. Small room, with bathroom, extremely quiet. Located on a street with easy access to Ubers, and walkable neighborhood with tree lined streets.

    Location is fabulous. Price is reasonable. This was my third stay. The rooms are all a bit quirky which I don’t mind but this one was a little less quirky leaning more towards ramshackle. Still, I’ll go back again for the location!

    Very good value for the money. I appreciated the very clean room and inn. That is one of my biggest rating factors. The inn is not fancy, but you feel comfortable. I also liked the availability of coffee or tea and the refrigerator in our...

    The inn was lovely and charming. The staff were very friendly and helpful. The room and bathroom were perfectly suitable. There was even a refrigerator in the room, unexpected! The use of the kitchen and common space was wonderful.
