Very comfortable hotel. Only complaint is that the room had only plastic cups for drinking and disposable paper cups for coffee - also very sparse toiletries, no shower cap, only 1 bar soap. For the price, they should have had glass cups, coffee mugs etc.

Property is quite old and very expensive for the quality of the rooms and bathrooms and furnishings. Needs extensive renovation. Quite walkable from Harvard square and restaurants. On site valet has in-and-out privileges but quite expensive, but that's par for the course in Cambridge/Boston.
