Away from the hustle and bustle along Mass Ave in Cambridge, Harvard Square, and Boston across the river. Very close to MIT. I was attended a conference at the convention centre and it was easy to get to via the Lechmere T (green line), which is only an 8 minute walk away. It was also great for heading into the North End (which I did each day to visit North End Yoga, which is a great yoga studio.) When not at the conference, I worked in the kitchen, made tea, had snacks, made lunch/dinner. Bed is super comfortable. It was quiet. Gema is friendly and very helpful. The place is very homey. And I didn't feel as if I was in tourist central!
