Overall the room was fairly clean but kind of run-down. As a guy, if I were traveling alone, I wouldn't mind staying here. However, don't come here if you are looking for a romantic experience. Our bathroom door wouldn't close and had tiles falling off the walls. That being said, the rest of the room was decent and they do appear to be doing renovations throughout the hotel. The neighborhood is decently safe but unattractive. I probably would not stay there again if I could find another hotel in the same price range.

Unless you are visiting someone at Harvard or do not eat, don't stay her. This hotel is OK but it is a $25 taxi ride into downtown Boston, there is a Chinese restaurant within the hotel which is very good but the only other eaterie within walking distance is McDonalds and there are certainly no watering holes! The bar is more like a staff room for the waiters who work in the restaurant and there is no fridge in the room, The computer is only set up for Wi-Fi so no internet access which for us was a problem as we needed to book our seats and print our boarding card. The only good thing about this hotel is the fact that the parking is very convenient and trouble free. They do a breakfast but we were told that this was only "acceptable"

We were there for 3 nights, the first night was not a problem as we had to be up to start our travelling of New England but when we returned for the final two nights of the holiday we were well hacked off but luckily we had friends in Boston who came and rescued us and took us to a very nice Greek Restaruant about a 10min drive away and the second night we went to their home for a meal and that was definitely the highlight of our experience in Cambridge!

A basic hotel. I thought the standard would be a little higher since their webpage said the hotel was renovated in 2000 but it already looked somewhat run down. That being said the room was clean which was the most important for me. There was plenty of parking and a chinese restaurant on the ground floor. The hotel also has an outdoor pool with sunchairs around it. I also liked that they offered free wireless internet with decent speed.

For the location and price it was a great deal. I booked a week or two before our trip and didn't want to spend hundreds of dollars when most of the time we wouldn't be in the hotel. The rooms were clean and spacious. Hotel staff were friendly and helpful. Harvard square was a short 15 minute walk away as well as other public transport lines (buses and trains). For those who are looking for a clean, affordable, comfortable & safe place to stay I would recommend Days Hotel.
