I can only echo all of the over reviews on here to say - Nora's place is simply lovely. :) Nora has this down to an art, and is able to anticipate your needs flawlessly. I did not have a chance to meet her in person, and yet she was a fantastic host, which is quite a skill! She provided very clear information prior to our arrival, and checked in with us both when we arrived and when we departed to make sure we had everything we needed. The space itself is so comfortable, clean, and feels like your own home. And the location is perfect! The house is a quick drive off of route 2, so no need to spend the time and frustration navigating the maze-like streets of Boston. It is located in a quiet, safe, and very cute neighborhood in North Cambridge. And best of all - it is just a quick walk down a peaceful walking/bicycle path right into Davis Square, where you can catch the Red Line with easy access to the entire city. I am so happy I found Nora's place so that I now know I have a home to return to whenever I come back to visit Boston. :)
