We arrived to a warm welcome from Mimi, who showed us in and gave us recommendations for shops and more in the neighborhood. Unfortunately, we never met Brian, for some reason, but Mimi was very friendly, helpful, and quick to reply to queries. She was also flexible, bending some host rules for our convenience. The apartment is beautiful, comfortable, well- appointed and convenient to both Harvard and Porter squares/public transits. We would highly recommend this lovely, large place to anyone spending time in Cambridge or Boston!
