    Visit the Coop (for books and music) and read the historical markers as you walk around-one can feel the presence of revolutionary heroes, scholars, and artists, and feel the New England sense of self sufficiency.

    my son-in-law and his dad recommended this hotel since they stayed at the colleges and the graduate schools here for more than 10 years. I agree with them, the location, bus number one to Harvard Square and Red line to the other side of the city etc, that made my travel in Boston comfortable and easier.

    Location was perfect; a 10-15 minute walk to Harvard Square. Hotel was super clean, staff was excellent and most helpful. There are no rooms with 2 beds, so this was somewhat disappointing as I had seen a picture with 2 beds and I prefer not to share my bed, but it was not a deal-breaker this trip. Great restaurants all around, as well as parking and valet option. Will definitely stay here again.

    The Inn has a faded charm. It is quiet and conveniently located in a cute neighborhood with good local restaurants. It's easy to get around via T or bus; or, if you like to walk, a nice walk to Harvard Square. Given the high price of Boston area hotels, it is good value, especially if you factor in that the Inn includes free parking. That's definitely a plus.

    It's quaint old school, tree lined quiet street, vintage style older building. Clean rooms. Reminds me of old European hotels. 24/7 concierge, fountain water, fridge, coffee always available. Great breakfast with organic milk, quiche and delicious whole grain toast. Even the different languages heard in the breakfast room reminds you of traveling in Europe. So so easy to walk to Harvard square, good little coffee and sandwich shop just next block. And free parking all make this a wonderful stay in Cambridge at a fantastic price.
