This 2-bedroom was one of the coziest and cleanest places I have stayed in. The interior is cutely designed, the place is filled with so much light from everywhere that you find yourself energized throughout your stay. the rooftop was also pretty nice if you wanted to particularly enjoy sunrises. Sheets/towels were all clean as well.
As for the location, not unless you uber for 10-15 mins or walk on foot for 30, there's really not much excitement in the vicinity. Harvard Square (a must visit) is 30-35 mins walking distance and in the opposite direction, you can walk 25-30 mins to get to Charles River. There's a Tatte bakery 20 mins walking distance (Kendall square) which is great for breakfast or a quick lunch. The room was on top of the Tavern but there was absolutely no noise coming your way. Across the Tavern, there's a school but you wouldn't notice it except for drop-off and pick up times. If you want to head down to the Tavern for live music, make sure to run it with Patrick ahead of time otherwise there many not be available seats for you if you walk in. Overall, a great place especially if you need to be in Cambridge for some reason.
