The only problem we had with the property is the heat wasn't working. They had someone look at it and it still didn't work. It was pretty cold in our room.

Parking issues
We were in Boston for a swim meet, accommodations were exactly what we needed. What we didn’t need was the expense of parking! Hotel only had so many parking passes for the garage, first come first serve! So instead of a flat rate for the day coming and going as a please I had to pay each time we left! $10 for half hour, $40 for 1 hour and 45 minutes,over night another $48! I know parking is at a minimum but providing you guests a spot at a fixed rate is needed!

Great stay.
We stayed for 4 nights with the whole family. The room was spacious, we love that we have a big refrigerator, a dishwasher, a stove, very nice utensils, dining table and a sofa bed. They clean our room every single day. There’s free breakfast every morning. The location is close to everything we wanted to visit. However, we have issue with the bath tub drain. It was draining slow so whenever you take a shower the water would pile up. Overall, our stay was great. I would give it an 8 out of 10.

Non-pretentious, great value hotel in an excellent location: easily connected to Harvard Square and Boston's downtown, and just steps from the MIT. Clean and spacious rooms, with a well-equipped kitchenette. Helpful staff. Complete fitness center and good breakfast. Great experience in general, and very good value for your money

We parked in the yellow garage as we were told when we called ahead to get information on parking. So that’s what we did and when we checked in we were told not to pull a ticket we would have a card to use to swipe. So I had to move the car out and back in. Ended up paying $18 for no reason because when I called ahead they failed to let me know about the swipe card. Other wise the room is spacious.

We were able to take advantage of early check in due to the kindness of the front desk staff, and the hard work of the cleaning staff, who quickly cleaned a room so we could put our bags in the room. Cleaning staff continued to be super friendly and helpful throughout our stay. Would definitely recommend this property.

I was In Cambridge for a wedding and needed to check in between the ceremony and reception. There was traffic in the area and the kind woman at the front desk I believe her name was Patricia, went above and beyond and helped me get checked in and to the reception on time. We had a clean, comfortable, well stocked, quiet suite. The breakfast in the morning was perfect after a night of partying. This was a genuinely great stay and I will stay here again when I am back in town.

Heating/AC unit was kind of loud, but didn't go off and on, so got used to it. Convenient to a few restaurants and the T. Parking garage was just behind hotel, and kind of expensive ($40)
