The hotel is new, very modern but cost feel. Good location with easy access to Boston and Cambridge. We stayed for a night touring colleges and it was perfect. The bed was probably the most comfortable hotel beds I have ever experienced. We did not eat at the restaurant but it looked like a great atmosphere and from what I saw the menu was great. Great stay overall.

Great location -- could easily walk to all the local Cambridge places we were going to! Very close to the Harvard outdoor sports complexes (which was why we're visiting--a men's lax game)! The staff was all very helpful, kind, and super prompt with all requests! Zero complaints. Will absolutely stay here when visiting again.
