Wonderful
Anonymous, Jul 2021
I love the hotel and the ambiance it offers. The breakfast was excellent. The room was spacious and spotlessly clean. The bathroom was very roomy and the shower was wonderful, as well as the toiletries. It would be nice to have had the lounge open, but COVID has interrupted that for now, which is just fine. Love the place, just wish it were a bit closer to the city center.

Pros (+) The staff of the Tria is first rate. In my estimation, they're as good as hotel personnel I've encountered at far more expensive places. The bang for the buck is pretty good here in what can be a very pricey town. Oh, and there's a really good breakfast and free parking - big plusses in Cambridge.
Cons (-) The location is not so great and it's tough to get to for a novice driving in Greater Boston. They make up for it somewhat by having a shuttle to several key spots around Cambridge (great friendly driver, by the way).
