This is a light and airy but cozy attic apartment. Our family of three found the space very comfortable and functional. The decor is charming and very personal -- you feel like you are staying in a real person's house, which I liked. There are shelves of books and board games. Cynthia was a great host and was very conscientious and communicative. The beds are comfortable and the house is on a quiet street. There was just one major downside (for me) and one minor one. The major issue was that neither of the bedrooms had light blocking curtains or shades. There are french doors with no covering at all in one bedroom, and an uncovered skylight in the other bedroom, and the shades in both bedrooms are translucent, with large gaps at the sides. Cynthia very thoughtfully provided sleep masks, but for people who like to sleep in a dark room, this is something to be aware of. The minor downside is that the nearest restaurant or grocery store seemed to be about a 15 minute walk from the apartment, and it's a longer walk (more like 25-30 minutes) to the nearest T stop. The weather was rather miserable when we were visiting which made this more bothersome than if it had been nice out. Overall, for the amount of space this place is amazing value for Cambridge.
