We made a bit of a last minute request for a large party, and Rae and Jarrod were flexible about it. They were helpful and informative before our trip, and left a booklet of really useful information in each room as well, so while we didn't actually meet them during our trip they were great hosts.
But the main thing are the ROOMS - oh my goodness. The two rooms are on the third floor, with lovely neighborhood views, and while they have been recently renovated for modern comforts, the stately grace of this home is beyond words. Anyone with an interest in architecture will know the great historic queen-Anne style homes in Cambridge, and this is a brilliant example - the original trim and mouldings are all intact, and gorgeous. There's a nice sitting area in each room, which was great at the end of our long day, and they provided all sorts of thoughtful touches - even a toothbrush for one of us who had forgot. The furniture is comfy and one room even had a desk, if I had wanted to work. There is good access to Harvard Square, with restaurants nearby. Definitely worth a stay.
