Spacious Cambridge Room, Walk to Harvard

Location. Nice neighborhood. Closer to Central Sq. than Harvard Sq. True 15 minute easy walk to either destination. On site washer/ dryer. Host provided coffee snack and breakfast options.

While sharing facilities was not an issue this time, it could get odd at times. But the site is just to rest and plan, so the facility is great for that and easy access to transportation. Easy walk to Harvard or Central Sq. subway points.

Ben’s place is located in a quiet neighborhood, about 12 minutes walk to Harvard square. The house is very clean and spacious. I had a good night sleep and was able to make some breakfast (spent some time locating where everything is, wish a different pan to fry the eggs). Thank you Ben for hosting me.

I didn’t meet Ben in person, but Anya helped me get settled in. The house is nice with some common spaces available, and the guest room was great with a very comfortable bed. I appreciated the generosity with breakfast food, snacks, and treats provided.

The shared bathroom was not ideal as I was traveling solo and didn’t know the other guest. There were also some issues related to said other guest— she kept turning the heat on even when it was 83F out during the day, making my room uncomfortably hot when I returned from conference activities each night… She would also turn all the lights on in the kitchen/living area late at night and then not turn them off when going to bed. I don’t blame the host at all, but just a warning that you can’t predict who might be in the other guest room and how it might affect your experience.
