Louisa is a top notch host! Every question I had about the surrounding area was answered (and helpful). I was attending a summer school class at Harvard and the location was perfect! It is close to the t and you are able to get anywhere you need to go. The place is decorated nicely, is very clean and felt homey. While the area is completely safe, as a female, I liked having a passcode to get into the front door. It gave an extra measure of safety while coming and going. I would stay here again in a heartbeat!
