We had a very good stay

Overall the property was clean and nicely appointed. The only issue was a few black ants in the downstairs bathroom and kitchen. Not a big deal. We appreciated the shower body wash conditioner and shampoo in both bathroom. We did have to got out and buy toilet paper. There was no local tv only Netflix and Prime. The deal breaker as to why we would not stay there again-The front steps are a major safety concern. The porch slopes terribly and the outdoor carpeting on the stairs is a tripping hazard. Honestly, I don't know how this front entry passed inspection. We visit Buffalo often and would love to stay again if the

Easter Weekend in the 716

The house was well suited for our stay, 6 adults. The kitchen was great - organized, clean and well stocked. Only two disappointments, that didn't alter our rating, just are suggestions for improvement. The living room does not have enough seating and the sofas are very old. The main TV in the living room is not a smart TV, we could not get live TV at all (it is March Madness), only Netflix type entertainment. An upgrade to the TV would be great! Thanks for the hospitality!

Fabulous stay in a beautiful home!

We were four friends who were coming to Buffalo to spend four days together, and we couldn’t have picked a better place for a girls' weekend! As soon as we walked into the place, it felt like home. The entire house was very clean and well kept, and the location was perfect for getting around the city. Everywhere we wanted to go was just a short driving distance away. We each had our own bedroom with very comfortable beds and lots of pillows, there was plenty of living space and a well stocked kitchen, and there were two full bathrooms with nice, plush towels. Ayat was an absolute pleasure to deal with and was always extremely quick to respond to our inquiries. We all loved our stay and would highly recommend Harvard Haven for a great getaway! Thanks again, Ayat, for a wonderful stay!

Horrible stay and experience.

When we reached there, it was not cleaned after prior guests left. We had to leave the house until 6 pm so they could clean it. We were left waiting and killing time till he got it cleaned. Upon asking to reimburse in some form (for eg buy us a bottle of wine/liquor) he denied that and got us a couple bags of chips and some chocolate which doesnt even cut it. This was completely unprofessional behavior and stay started at such a bad note. We wanted to have a good time but it turned out sour from the get go.

This house has four roomy bedrooms and plenty of living space. It was perfect for our family visiting Buffalo together.
