This place was a great find. A little gem close to Harvard. Coming from Fla and not knowing what to expect, it was a pleasant surprise. It looks like it was a renoed older hotel in the past with cute upgrades. Location was KEY and lots of shops , restaurants within walking distance. The staff was more than helpful!

The accessible room was doable but tight. The bed is on a platform which makes using a patient lift almost impossible.
