Good
Liked: Room was nice -- comfortable bed, everything was clean and worked the way it was supposed to
Disliked: Housekeeping kept trying to enter our room on the last morning of our stay, despite the fact that our do not disturb sign was up. They started knocking at around 8 while my partner was still asleep. At around 9 they actually opened the door. Pretty rude and pretty surprising. Checkout wasn't until 11 and it felt like they were trying to kick us out early or something.

Best hotel in Harvard area
Liked: Tremendous value for money. Immaculate and fresh - always looks like it was just renovated. Very comfortable beds. Perfect location for Harvard Square. It isn’t luxurious and the approach to the lobby is odd, and it doesn’t have a restaurant, but it is exactly what you need in Cambridge. I have stayed here and at the Charles many times, and over time I gave up on the Charles. It’s not any more comfortable or clean than the Harvard Square Hotel and it costs at least twice as much. I can walk over there for a meal and enjoy the lobby if I want and when I do I feel smug because I’m not paying for a room! I have also stayed at each of the other area hotels at some point over the past years, and this one has become my go-to top choice for the combination of value and location.
Disliked: I wanted real milk, not creamer, for my free coffee in the lobby - but that’s not significant.

Excellent location. Very reasonable price...
Liked: Location! Lobby/lounge area was bright, comfortable, and warm with a complementary beverage bar for coffee/tea. Room was quiet and clean.
Disliked: We were in a handicap-accessible room that we did not require. No counter space in the bath was inconvenient. Tile floors were cold and hard. Asked about how to close the darkening/privacy room shade, but desk staff didn’t know. (Later found the electric switch on the wall.) Closet space too small for a coat.
