Great place! Very large place with the two rooms on opposite ends of the place which is great for privacy. Living room and kitchen in the middle with full kitchen and living room space. Walkable to most of Cambridge including Massachusetts st which is the heart of Cambridge.
This apartment was very spacious and comfortable. The on-site parking was a huge benefit. The kitchen was well-supplied. Overall one of the best VRBO properties I have ever stayed in!
Such a great location - only a 10 minute walk to the Central Square T station on the redline. The property was clean, the neighborhood is quiet, and there are so many cute restaurants within a short walk. Jon is fantastic to deal with - responds quickly to any request/message. We had a great stay!
The property was very convenient for traveling into Boston for site seeing tours. We were able to uber into and out of Boston for a very reasonable price. Cheaper and easier than finding parking in Boston.
We had a lovely stay in this beautiful spacious apartment especially once we realised we needed to have the fans on for the heating to heat the bedroom and bathroom! It is very conveniently situated and the private parking was very useful.
Lobed the house and the location. Super close to yhe T and there was anything you may need close by. Whole foods is just a couple blocks dow, great food and shops. I jad to reach out for the check in and there isnt any i fo on check out process, but overall is was amazing and just what we were looking for.
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.
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.
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.
The location was great with a 10-15 min walk to both the green and red lines and about 25 minutes to walk to Harvard Square. A Whole Foods was nearby to pick up food and a great bagel/pizza shop down the street. We felt safe walking around the neighborhood and letting our young adult kids walk about on their own. The condo had lots of space and a great kitchen to make meals. Would stay again.

Needs some TLC
Safe neighborhood, house definitely needs some TLC. Was clean and comfortable but definitely needs some upgrades. Maybe a 3 star at the most.
