Not neccesary cheap, but, for Boston area, it was ok. Location was good with easy acces to transports and shops. It was quiet, so we could rest in good conditions.

Where we stayed seemed to be a rundown neighborhood.
Where we stayed seemed to be a rundown neighborhood. Not dangerous but there was no reason to leave the hotel. Food in the area, other than exceptional farm across the street was run down old diners & coffee shops with bad food.
Nobody should come here to see the town.

Cambridge is a great town to stay in, for a variety of reasons. It's great if you're wanting a place that feels and is safe for you and your family. It's also not that far away from everything you'll want to see at Harvard, in Boston, and at other nearby locals such as Salem and Plymouth. We had two gluten-intolerant individuals in our party, and we were able to find great restaurants that fulfilled their needs.
The only negative was that while we were there the Red Line station nearby was down, but the metro of Boston provided charter busses that transported travelers to other portions of the Red Line that were open and allowed us to access the greater Boston metro at large. This closure would only last two weeks, so chances are that you won't have this issue!
If you end up going to Cambridge, I would recommend getting a Charlie Card from a nearby subway station to be able to use both busses and subway. In later 2024 I understand that Boston is planning on having online options for the Charlie Card, so do a bit of research before going.

Cambridge is a great place for sightseeing and history.
Cambridge is a great place for sightseeing and history. My son graduated from Harvard University and the city has rich spots for viewing in conjunction with the university. The Coop has all of the Harvard gear and gifts to take back to family, as well as the Harvard Store. We ate at Tatte, a nice breakfast and coffee restaurant. Uber is easy as well as short walks around the squares. Cambridge is a beautiful city and I can't wait to visit again.

Stayed in Cambridge to attend a graduation at Boston University. We were just close enough for it to be a very short drive, but did not have to immediately deal with school traffic. There were many stores and restaurants nearby, with good access to major roads to simplify travel.

Cambridge is beautiful, a fascinating place, but we were running around for several work events and didn't see much. VERY congested, so we relied on Lyfts to get around. But, so much to see, packed with beautiful historic architecture. Lots of trendy food places (often a little strange).

Cambridge is an easy, safe and picturesque place to walk around. The streets are clean, the parks are beautifully maintained and there is stunning historic architecture, as well as quaint shops and eateries everywhere. We particularly enjoyed seeing the beautiful Memorial Hall. It's a pity visitors can't look inside, into the Annenberg Hall dining area, but we appreciate that the Harvard students may not like an audience whilst eating : ). The Harvard University of Natural History is fantastic and the Glass Flowers exhibit is a must-see! Being a rower, I enjoyed seeing the beautiful Weld Boathouse and Newell Boathouse and watching crews row up and down the Charles River. If you love books, The COOP bookstore is well worth a visit and if you enjoy ice-cream, I would highly recommend getting a Taiyaki (Japanese ice-cream) from Taiyaki NYC in Church Street. The ramen at Boston Ramen at 24 Holyoke Street was delicious and I would highly recommend grabbing a waffle and coffee from the food truck parked in the Harvard Science Center Plaza. If you're going into Boston, I would highly recommend the Boston Tea Party Ships and museum experience (an excellent interactive, re enactment experience), having a ride on the beautiful Greenway Carousel and walking through the Boston Common, seeing the 'Make way for ducks' statue and, for the 'Cheers' tv series fans, visiting the Cheers bar.
Breakfast was good, with waffles, scrambled eggs and some fresh fruit (but nothing fancy). The location is convenient to both Cambridge (MIT, Harvard square) and Boston. A few blue bikes stations nearby and plenty of cafes around. The room was clean and everything seems to be new/refreshed. Garage is very conveniently located real close (but not in the same building).
The breakfast choice was amazing. Marc who runs the inn is most personable and friendly. If you have reason to be near MIT this place is great. If not, there is still Marc. He calls himself the innkeeper but I secretly call him Mr Thénardier – but he does not charge "3% percent for sleeping with the window shut"!. Would definitely stay there again!
This was a well-located hotel close to the red line train, where it was very easy to get to Harvard, MIT, and downtown Boston. The room was reasonably priced given costs in the area. The restaurant and bar was unexpectedly quite good. And the staff were very kind.
Freepoint Hotel Hilton Cambridge is a classy and stylish hotel close to numerous amenities that has friendly and helpful staff. Many thanks for a lovely stay at this hotel.
