A Friendly Inn At Harvard Reviews

7.4/10

United States, August 2023

Convenient location near Harvard Square and within walking distance of shops and restaurants. Friendly and helpful staff who provided great service. Clean and well-maintained rooms and bathrooms

Dated and basic accommodations, lacking in comfort and luxury. Limited parking spaces, difficult to find a spot in the small lot.

We had a delightful stay at the inn, which was conveniently located within walking distance of Harvard. the Victorian style and winding staircase added a charming touch to the experience. the rooms were clean, quiet, and affordable. We also felt safe walking around the area, even as two young women. the inn's proximity to theaters, cafes, and public transportation made it easy for us to explore Harvard and other parts of the city. we had a wonderful time and would consider staying here again.

Everything was fantastic! 😊

The cleanliness of the hotel was top-notch, and the facilities were well-maintained. Parking was provided and the staff was friendly and helpful.

Nothing.

I had a great value for my money at this charming old hotel near Harvard Square. The room may have been tight for two people with luggage, but it was cozy and the bed was comfortable. The location was perfect, just a short walk to Harvard Yard, and the staff was friendly and informative.

The breakfast offerings could be improved with more variety.

The location was ideal, with everything I needed within a short UBER ride or under 10 minutes' walk to Harvard Square. The rooms were comfortable and the free coffee was a nice touch. Plus, the Inn was much more affordable than other lodgings in the area. a convenient and affordable option for a visit to Harvard.

Would recommend this hotel.
