    Visit the Coop (for books and music) and read the historical markers as you walk around-one can feel the presence of revolutionary heroes, scholars, and artists, and feel the New England sense of self sufficiency.

    The staff was super friendly and accommodating. I had to do self check-in because my flight got in late, but it was easy and convenient. My room was very comfortable, and I had everything I needed. I was staying in Cambridge for a conference, and the location was perfect to get to the university and all the little shops at Harvard Square.

    Good access to Cambridge/Boston; you don't need to stay right in Harvard Square or by Boston Common; Porter Square is within 20 minutes from central Boston and this hotel is right next to the metro. Close to most shops/facilities you need (e.g. grocery, laundromat, etc.).

    my son-in-law and his dad recommended this hotel since they stayed at the colleges and the graduate schools here for more than 10 years. I agree with them, the location, bus number one to Harvard Square and Red line to the other side of the city etc, that made my travel in Boston comfortable and easier.

    The Inn has a faded charm. It is quiet and conveniently located in a cute neighborhood with good local restaurants. It's easy to get around via T or bus; or, if you like to walk, a nice walk to Harvard Square. Given the high price of Boston area hotels, it is good value, especially if you factor in that the Inn includes free parking. That's definitely a plus.
