The best thing about this place is it's location, if you want to be close to Harvard Square or the campus! It's quiet and comfortable and is within walking distance to many cafes and restaurants. It' definitely not a luxury apartment, but I was very comfortable staying there with my two teens (and the listing makes clear that if you're expecting luxury, this isn't the place for you). The host is extremely responsive and helpful. I had a nice call with her the day before we checked in (which she requires), and she followed up with some helpful instructions on how to get to the unit from the airport (it's really easy!). She also informed me that the unit looked different than the pictures in that they replaced the two chairs and table in the living room with a desk/chair and took out the carpet and put in wood flooring. She also followed up after my stay to make sure everything was up to par. As I informed her, my one concern was that the couch was different than what was pictured and was very, very stained, so I suggested that she cover or replace the couch and update the photos. She apologized and said that the cleaner did not inform her but that she would take care of it. Bring your own shampoo unless you don't mind using 4-in-1 (which I didn't even know was a thing: shampoo/conditioner/body wash/shaving gel?).
