Great service and price - but a bit too quirky! Here are the perks and quirks:

Perks
1) Great Host - Rosalind is very warm and welcoming. She helped me with the lock and we "practiced" a few times the next day and she apologized for the inconvenience. She is sweet and reminds me of my grandmother.

2) Convenient Location near Harvard Square. It's a healthy 20 minute walk from Harvard Square and a 10 minute walk from Porter Street station. The house is nestled away on a side street tucked under some coniferous trees. It's a safe neighborhood, I was walking around at 3am by myself and didn't have any issues. You can catch cabs at Harvard Square.

3) Good Price - Most rooms are $100/day in the location, so the price is below market.

4) Amenities - The room comes with refrigerator, microwave, and a sink, so you can enjoy your leftovers! You have everything that you need in the cozy space.

Quirks
1) Cryptic Lock - I struggled with the code lock on the front door. You have to move the latch all the way left after typing in the code, not to the right, otherwise you'll be locked out! I had a major issue with the lock and was locked out at 3am Sat night (never a fun time) and had to ring the doorbell. I felt terrible about waking Rosalind up, luckily, she was home and let me in.

2) No ensuite bathroom - I had to go to the bathroom through Dominick's (Rosalind's husband) office. It's cozy with low ceilings (be careful not to cobble your head!) and carpet.

3) Cozy Room & Low Ceilings - The room is cozy as pictured. It's small to say the least, be careful not to hit your head.

4) Uncomfortable Mattress - The twin size bed has a thin and rigid, like a cot. It was hard to get a good night's rest. Lots of tossing and turning.

My 2 sense - If you are on a tight budget and need a place to crash for a night, this homey place is for you. If you are looking for a more luxurious stay with comfortable mattress and not great with locks (which hindered my stay), then I recommend looking elsewhere.
