The staff could not be more friendly. Location is right off Harvard Square. The rooms are all very very small. Most do not have a chair. No towel rack or fan in the bathroom. “Queen sized” bed advertised which should be 60” wide but beds are only 48” wide — so not even a true full size. I saw 4 rooms when checking in as I could not believe it. Rug in my room had large stains all over. Overdue for a renovation.

Cozy room. No fridge or microwave in rooms but able to store it in the coffee bar area fridge. Great easy access to water bottles, tea and espresso machine. Super convenient walk into Harvard Square and the campus.

Cozy hotel with attentive staff, right on Harvard Square across from the Arrow Street Theatre (what used to be the Oberon). A short walk to the amazing Harvard Art Museums (free!). No breakfast, but the lobby has tea and coffee including decaf from a fancy machine, and there's a mini mall on the corner with a diner, burger place, Chinese restaurant, cafe, and sushi spot (all of which do takeout), and a convenience store open until 11 pm. If you're visiting Harvard campus you should stay here!

Lovely location and staff were wonderful but quite dated and rooms not ideal. Poor lighting, worn carpets and amenities. But for location can’t be faulted

Loved the boutique feel of the entire property. Beautiful and comfortable lobby guest area with a fireplace. Though room was smallish there was an ample balcony.
