Simply perfect! This place was clean, quiet, comfortable, and easy to get to. I only stayed one night but would be happy to stay longer next time I come to visit my son at his university. In a quiet neighborhood for sure, but within walking distance (20 min walk) to BU, MIT, Harvard -- its in a nice spot. The bed was very comfortable and the room was a very generous size. Shared bath, shared kitchen, both are clean and easy. No fuss, don't expect luxury, but if you're just sleeping there while visiting others and sight-seeing, then it's a perfect landing spot.
