Great base of operations
The Harvard Room was perfect for our two-night stay close to downtown. The room was immaculate, quiet and newly furnished with everything we needed, right down to virtually unlimited coffee capsules. The owners made check-in extremely easy and answered questions quickly. Having a commuter rail station (Boston Landing) only a half-mile away was a big plus. The station for Fenway, Fine Arts Museum and other top Boston attractions was just one stop away. We're hoping to go back soon and continue discovering all Boston offers.

Perfect for what we needed
Check in process was very easy. There is a main code for the door leading to the entry of the two rental units and then a different code for the door to the room. Our code to the room didn't work but the owner responded within a few minutes with a different code. The laundry is right in the entryway to the two units and it was very nice to get to do a load of laundry. The room had everything we needed. The bed was comfortable with 4 nice pillows and plenty of towels were provided. Having parking was a huge perk! It is true what I read in some of the other reviews that you can hear people walking on the floor above the basement unit but honestly it wasn't bad. The walking started around 7 am and we were usually up and getting ready to go explore Boston anyway by that time. The neighborhood seemed safe with nice cars parked on the street, people jogging, and families walking with strollers.

Experienced property owner with a background in Hospitality and Real Estate. Hosting guests is a passion I get to share with my wife, we love sharing our favorite places to eat and visit in Boston.

Why they chose this property

Extremely convenient to Downtown Boston, Harvard Square and Logan Airport. Loads of shops, restaurants, bars, coffee shops and supermarkets located within walking distance. Additionally, our property has been recently renovated and is extremely well cared for.

What makes this property unique

We are in the Allston/Brighton neighborhood of Boston. This is a traditional 3-decker apartment building. We renovated our basement and host two identical hotel room-like units in this space. There is a shared foyer entrance and then two individual units on this story of the building. Each unit has its own smart locks, bathroom with shampoo/conditioner/travel toiletries, desk, coffee maker, smart TV, and minifridge. There is no kitchen in this unit.
