Construction!

Construction throughout the property which was not disclosed. Service staff barged into occupied room without knocking. Dust, debris and noise were rampant throughout the property. Was still very expensive.

This hotel is in one of the prettiest corners of Cambridge, and only a short walk from everything in Harvard Square. The room was also very charming and comfortable - it didn't feel like a generic chain hotel.

Perfect location with a very attentive staff. The rooms were large and well appointed. A minor issue is that they are undergoing a renovation which created a less attractive decor in areas but it was no impediment to enjoying my stay
