It was a wonderful stay, so quiet and peaceful and the neighborhood is beautiful. Incredibly convenient walk to Whole Foods and Walgreens, and multiple bus stops for public transportation. The unit is spacious and a perfect rental for vacation, we would love to stay again when we are back in the city.

Charming little retreat in a great location

I needed a quite place to chill before racing at the HOCR. This apartment was clean, well stocked and within easy walking distance of Whole Foods, Walgreens and of course all that Harvard Square has to offer, but far enough off the beaten path to offer some peace and quiet. I plan to book for next year!

Centrally located, short walking distance to restaurants and stores. Backyard is not private (shared with a couple of other units) and bathroom is difficult to navigate if you have any mobility issues or are larger (door does not fully open, hits the toilet). Good place for a single person who just needs a place to sleep and shower.

Perfect for what we needed. Rooms were as advertised and the place was clean and super convenient, and in a cute walkable neighborhood! Having a grocery store and drugstore nearby was appreciated, and the outdoor space was great. I was able to "WFH" successfully using the Wifi. My only feedback is that we would have enjoyed having a few more towels for the week (hand towels and/or bath towels).
