Great Location in Cambridge

Other reviews on this location were spot on. It's an old building and there is definitely some upkeep needed. The kitchen is missing quite a few things. For instance, there was one bowl. We made it work, but there should be more going on in a VRBO kitchen. The location is FANTASTIC! This was our first visit to Boston and felt like we were able to get anywhere we wanted in a short amount of time. I had heard about traffic nightmares in Boston, but that just wasn't the case while we were there. We were pleasantly surprised to see that they close down Memorial Drive on Sundays (in the summer) to traffic allowing people to run, walk, ride bikes, rollerblade, etc on this four lane road for a little over a mile. I had my bike with me and took advantage of this. On one occasion, we needed to reach out to Mike. Upon check in, we noticed that towels were provided, but no washcloths. By that evening, we had a bunch of BRAND NEW washcloths and hand towels. That was an impressive response!

SUCH a Solid Pre Boston Marathon Stay

Mike is a great host and the property was perfect!! The check in and check out was so slick and Mike was so patient and kind with all of my questions. Would highly recommend this listing. It’s a little outdated but very clean.

The potential is amazing - i would invest in an interior designer support - the furniture was tragic - falling apart - the bed broke and was replaced - the kitchen is not leveled - so floor is totally slanted - bit its an authentic victorian home so - its cool... the lights to the bathroom are outside the bathroom and the kitchen lights are also not in the kitchen. the tv didnt work - or maybe i couldnt figure it out....it was very quiet and very close to the river and during The Head of the Charles - would i come back - YES. amazing location - but i would invest in a paint job. better furniture -....paint the hallway - kinda trashy - if you are young and dont Give AF its perfect - if you are expecting to be wowed in comfort - take a sleeping pill - its fine..i wish i could buy this building and elevate its potential.

The apartment was very clean and well-equipped. I had a little trouble getting in at first, and the proprietor gave me quick, clear instructions over the phone. The apartment is a little shabby -- torn carpet, missing showerhead, things like that. But it was very clean and comfortable.

Cozy and quiet

This was the perfect place to stay for a night. It’s a great place to walk around. We wished we stayed another night. Inside the place is a little dated but we loved it’s charm and character.

They left bottles of water and snacks which was nice. The apartment and house is in need of repairs. But it had all the all gadgets to use. Cupboards old, floors old.stairs old, property needs to be maintained. It was a nice quiet area and walking distance to stores.
