Federico's home is a treasure. A marvelous combination of old world and contemporary, with beautiful design details everywhere, this unique space is perfectly located for anyone visiting Cambridge on academic business. We arrived to find the house spotless and in perfect order, with many extra details that made all the difference in our stay. It was a real treat to be able to sit outside on the deck for breakfast, and the shower on the second floor is truly luxurious. I only wish we'd had more time, to explore some of the many intriguing title on the bookshelves. Federico is a wonderful host, and this is a special place indeed.
