This apartment is located in a quiet neighborhood and is walkable to a bus line on Cambridge Street and to the Kendall station on the red line. If you have young kids, the two nearby parks are a plus.
As for the apartment itself, the bathroom is extremely small. I am not tall and I found myself with not much room to move in the shower-over-small tub. Only the rear bedroom has a window AC unit so during our summer stay we made use of the three fans Steve provided.
This apartment is conveniently located near MIT and Kendall Square, which has good restaurants and cafes.
