Great location! We stayed here for the Boston Marathon and we were close to the finish area, which is where we wanted to be. If you really wanted, you could have walked to the area (approx. 3 miles) but even driving in was easy enough. You are right up the street from Harvard University so they are plenty of restaurants nearby. Steven's home was spacious for all of us and the parking spot was perfect for us. Steven was also very accommodating during our stay and was quick to respond to our requests. Thank you again!
