I booked a room immediately, received a confirmation email, and arrived at the property around 10:10\. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Sep 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Mark 18 Jun 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### 1 NIght in Cambridge The house was indeed tranquil and very clean. It included parking and was relatively convenient for our planned outing in Cambridge and our trip to the airport the next morning. The room was quite small, but the shared bathroom was convenient and clean. Before arriving, we received an email from the property informing us that check-in time would be 2 pm, but when we arrived a few minutes before 4 pm, we were informed that we could not enter until 4 (ultimately we got in a few minutes after 4). ##### Mark Stayed 1 night in Jun 2023 ### 2/10 Terrible #### Adrian 5 Mar 2025 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities The house was tidy but not clean. The bed and pillows were very uncomfortable. This is a room in a house that shares the bathroom and kitchen with other guests, but there was no way to lock the room. There was no room service or cleaning of any kind. I was given one towel and one washcloth for the week. I do not recommend staying here. ##### Adrian Stayed 5 nights in Feb 2025 ### 8/10 Good #### Anthony Valance 31 Jul 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities \- ##### Anthony Valance Stayed 1 night in Jul 2022 ### 8/10 Good #### Patrick 5 Jun 2022 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service Host, price, location, quiet neighborhood all pluses.

The place was excellent in every category. One recommendation I would make is TV in each room because nowadays it difficult for different guests to watch the same programs. Overall l love the place and every time I visit Cambridge which is going to be several times, I will stay there. Excellent.
