Location is pretty good, with 10 mins to Harvard square and 20 mins to Porter square; fairly stable internet. The room was tiny, so was the TV (and placed on a high cupboard); no option to not have towels replaced everyday; have to go out to the hallway to make tea/coffee; slow internet.

Proximity to Harvard and price A little noisy in the room. Few healthy items for breakfast. No Boston Globe. No one at desk when I was checking out. Good option near Harvard Yard and Memorial Hall.Proximity to Harvard and price A little noisy in the room. Few healthy items for breakfast. No Boston Globe. No one at desk when I was checking out.

In spite of a reservation and a call from the airport, the hotel did not honor my reservation at 11:30 PM but spent an hour working out sending me to another hotel and getting a cab. Yes, being walked at 11:30 at night. Don't expect a reservation means you have a room.In spite of a reservation and a call from the airport, the hotel did not honor my reservation at 11:30 PM but spent an hour working out sending me to another hotel and getting a cab.

Charming setup and very friendly staff. The breakfast certainly could have been a lot better. This is a lovely house with a friendly staff. The location is great for people visiting Harvard (4 minute walk) and MIT (20 minute walk). The breakfast is basic, but the overall cost is much cheaper than other options.Charming setup and very friendly staff. The breakfast certainly could have been a lot better.

"While this Victorian-era inn gets mixed reviews, nobody disputes that it is indeed ‘a friendly inn.’ Service is accommodating and efficient, offering a clean and quiet respite for budget travelers. The old maxim holds true, however: you get what you pay for. Be prepared to sleep in cramped quarters and to forego the fancy-pants amenities you may find at an upscale hotel. A continental breakfast is included, but you are better off heading across the yard to the Hi-Rise for your morning meal."
