John was a great host. His place as others have mentioned is indeed very close to public transportation to Harvard Square and connections to downtown Boston.
My son and I stayed together in the room and were quite comfortable. My son investigated Harvard and together we hit the night spots until about 1am which was never a problem with John. Each morning he fixed coffee and a full breakfast for us on last day before sending us off. He was able to direct us to free on street parking. We had a fun time.

Thanks John.
