Had a lovely stay at the Ginkgo House with the owners being very friendly and helpful. The House is well laid out and I appreciated the kitchen and cozy dining room. My room was simple but very comfortable. I didn’t realize it was a shared bathroom until I arrived but even though there were other guests, there was never a time when the bathroom was occupied (so it was totally fine). The location is super quiet in a great neighborhood that is walkable to coffee shops, restaurants, etc….

Staff was soooo friendly!

Was there for 4 nights and the coffee was not refreshed daily. The people on the floor above me stomped alot so was noisy.

"Cute basement 1BR suite but noisy with tiny bathroom!!"

Good

5.0

The place is very conveniently located next to Cambridge so perfect for university visits etc. Cute garden and separate entrance. Clean and well maintained with decent amenities.

The room is in the basement so there is constant noise and thumping from upstairs at all times of day and night - which didn't stop even though we complained to the host. The bathroom is tiny and the shower area barely fits an adult in it, and highly inconvenient to use.
