We had a really nice stay! The apartment is very clean and airy, with lots of light. It's in a beautiful, quiet neighborhood, and the short walk to Harvard Square is really pleasant. The bed is very comfy, and the light-blocking shades in the bedroom made the room quite dark, so we slept very well. Maria is a gracious hostess, very attentive and responsive. She provides nice touches like spa-quality toiletries in the bathroom and sparkling water in the fridge. She even gave us a vase of fresh flowers cut from her garden, which was lovely. She responded to messages right away, and we had no problems at all with check-in arrangements.
