Excellent property in Cambridge. Great for a family or group of friends. The property is well maintained and close to public transport. We used it as our home base to check out the Boston colleges and it was perfect!

Apartment was large - three bedrooms, two baths, full kitchen and living room.- and very well located in walkable residential area of older homes. Neighborhood seemed safe. We were able to park on the street without issues. The host was very responsive to our questions.

This house was very comfortable for the five of us. It is a very charming house. The owner was very easy to communicate with and she responded right away when we had an issue. The house also came with complementary coffee Kcups and some instant oatmeal that helped a lot. We had a nice stay in a very nice neighborhood.
