The place looks nice enough, but beware of a rude concierge woman who doesn't care about your business. I'm having family come into town in late May and want to treat them to a 'thank you gift'- So this Inn was the closest/nicest lodging to my apartment. I called last night and was told that the place was booked, but... more

We stayed here for a night on January 11th. We have stayed several times before over a number of years, but whilst trying to book this time i found it slightly confusing that I could obtain three different prices for rooms. The Inns own web site had one price, [-----] another and on phoning the inn I was told (after... more

This inn is a great option for college shopping families. An easy walk to the Harvard campus or the T station. Lots of restaurants nearby, and a drugstore just across Mass. Ave. During our stay the only real shortcoming was the understaffing at breakfast -- one harried server trying to wait on everyone. An easy solution would be a buffet... more

We are from the UK and booked the Inn on the basis of recommendations. Firstly it is situated in a minor road of a major road in an apparent residential area. The property is old and maybe quaint but situated quite far from Central Cambridge. Cambridge Town area is a disappointment, drunks and vagrants, small measly shops and a bit... more

We booked two rooms for ourselves and my in-laws for 4 nights and really enjoyed it. The made to order breakfasts every morning were great and the staff were always very friendly and helpful. It is within walking distance to Harvard and the other colleges and very close to underground transportation into Boston. We would definitely stay there again and... more

We stayed here for three nights while we went apartment hunting in Cambridge. What a wonderful place! Beautiful rooms (due to our last minute booking we ended up staying in two rooms, 19 and 6), clean, comfy... Free wifi which you can use in your room, a nice patio to hang out and enjoy the sun on, tea and home-made... more

This was a Karen Brown recommendation, and we had high expectations. Stayed here for 2 nights during a HOT July week, and our first impression was quite positive - the air conditioning worked very well! We were in Room 5, which has it's own entrance from the street. The room was nicely and tastefully appointed, although there were a number... more

Loved it

I should have written this sooner but better late than never. Stayed here a night and it was so charming. Such a pretty house, and the staff was very friendly. My boyfriend and I stayed in Room 12, small room but it had a round window which took up almost the entire wall, it was very impressive. We actually got... more

I stayed for almost 5 weeks here and really thought the place was lovely. Rooms were cosy with Cable TV and wireless internet access. Staff were pleasant and helpful. Breakfast was nice and afternnon tea was served between 3 and 7 with fresh home-baked goodies. Convenient to both Harvard and Porter Sq (Porter Square is a bit closer). No elevator... more

Lovely room in a sweet inn. The parking was easy, but a bit tight. The breakfast was exceptional and comfortable in a beautiful dining room. Easy walk to Harvard Law School and Harvard Square. more
