Location and Price Can't be Beat!
What a great location close to Harvard and public transit. Bus stop out fron (71/73) or a 15-20 minute walk to Harvard Station (red line). THE View of the Charles River from bedrooms was a bonus. Yes, the building and apartment are outdated a bit run-down, but it was SAFE and it was CONVENIENT and CLEAN. The livingroom is a small seperate room with a futon and a door that can be closed for privacy. It pretty much was my son's room during our stay. We hung out at the small table in the kitchen. We didn't prepare any foods but there were a few pots and pans and a stove and microwave. We did take use of the two small fridges to store beverages and leftovers and snacks. Yes, you do hear the traffic along a busy street so this is not tucked away in a quiet neighborhood. Bring earplugs or a white noise machine if that would bother you. Its a BIG CITY so it didn't bother us. Did I mention the great location!!! The cleaners use a strongly-scented fabric softener so expect to have really clean smelling linen and towels. There is no washing machine in unit. The heaters in each room work well. It was cold during our visit so can't speak to the window ACs. Beds are foam and big soft comforters are provided in the bedroom closets, if needed. Kurig and coffee pods were laid out for us, although we didn't use them. Shampoo and conditioner was also provided. We enjoyed our affordable, cozy but short stay amongst the multi-million dollar houses with the million dollar view! Thanks!

"Charming historic" is putting a lot of marketing spin on this place. While it was generally clean and largely functional, the structure, finishes and built-in equipment were well-worn. There was a rip in the upholstery of a chair and others were stained. The only linens provided were the bedding, 3 bath towels and a hand towel; no kitchen linens or washcloths. The photos in the listing are likely from a few years ago. A previous review describing this as an undergrad apartment is being generous.

Weekend in Boston
Great location but property is VERY old, no surface was flat, lots of ‘make do’ type of work. Beds were fine but the ‘living room’ with the TV is VERY small. Kitchen is not set up to but cook any meals but ok for drinks and snacks. It was clean and the host is very responsive.

Boston/Salem Trip
Five of my friends and I went to visit Salem & Boston for a long weekend and we pretty much just needed some place to sleep and shower as we were out and about the entire time and this was great for what we needed. It was close to nearby attractions in Boston and only about 40 minutes to Salem depending on traffic. It was also walking distance to Harvard Square which was nice. It was not lavish or fancy so if that's what you're looking for it won't be for you but if you need a lowkey place to stay this will work just fine.

A bit like student housing
The location is excellent, and the price very reasonable... but the house is dingy and a bit delapidated. Slanted floor, exposed directly to street noise, tiny bathroom, droning refrigerator.
