We had a wonderful time and were pleased to see that every highlight of our trip was in close proximity to the house. The only challenge was parking. Someone had parked in our spot so we had to drive in circles until we located an option.

We were in town because my octogenarian father was rowing in the Head of the Charles. This was our second time staying at Leigh's place. It's small but has everything you need and doesn't feel cramped. The kitchen is quite spacious for the size. Having the second half-bath was so helpful when getting ready for the day. The location is convenient for walking around town, but tucked away from the noisier areas. Highly recommend!

Quiet neighborhood in easy walking distance to Harvard and the subway (Harvard Square and Central Square Stations).

Leigh has obviously taken the time to consider everything a guest could want or need while they’re staying away from home and it was all there for us on arrival. We especially appreciate the well equipped kitchen including the partly stocked pantry which made it easy to pick up and cook a few basic dishes. It was nice feeling part of a neighbourhood too.

This was a perfect stay for three adults, two of whom shared one bedroom, and the third in the smaller bedroom. The neighborhood is great, house was very well equipped and Leigh was very helpful with everything. Would stay here again without question.

We loved the property and found the oasis of this space, welcoming and accommodating to our family of four. From the quaint walkable neighborhood to the delicious morning coffee pods provided, this space was a win. We were able to walk with ease to Harvard and MIT for college tours, enjoy the food scene in Cambridge and navigate the T for trips into downtown Boston. The kitchen was a helpful addition to our stay as were the in-house laundry, two bathroom spaces and comfortable rooms. A wonderful property.

The apartment was great, very clean, cozy but more than enough room for four adults. The location couldn't have been better for our family's trip to Boston for our niece's graduation. Thank you for the easy check-in for making available such a great apartment.

Nicer than pjotos. Quieter than staying in Boston. 2 br 2 ba, 1 shower. 2 twins in 2nd bedroom. Perfect for our family of 3 it’s the st floor of 2 story house. You can hear the upstairs tenants when they’re home but luckily they were not there very frequently. Cute neighborhood. We didnt need parking, but looked like sn street parking could be difficult at certain times of day. Never an issue getting an uber to/from location. Good stay.

We were looking for a place convenient to the sights of Boston in a quiet neighborhood and the apartment hit all the marks. With two bedrooms it was perfect for a family of four, including an 18 month old in a pack-n-play. Parking at the off-street location around the block was perfect (we never had to use or move our car)

Our Spring Break stay in Boston was perfect thanks to this rental. It was a great size for our family (2 boys) and an easy walk to Harvard square. We had no trouble getting ubers or food delivered to the location. Everything was clean and comfortable. We enjoyed watching movies on Netflix (compliments of the owner) and the wireless withstood all of our devices! I was able to stream from my laptop as well with no problem. It was so nice to have our own kitchen and laundry machines. The airline canceled our flight home the day of and I was able to easily reach the owner to add a night. She also let us check out a little late the next day when our rescheduled flight was delayed. I can't say enough good things about the property or the owner!

We really enjoyed our stay! It was so nice to come back to our quiet and cozy “home” after a full day of walking and exploring. There were 3 women in our group and having the 2nd bathroom was great! Perfect place to stay, just a short Uber ride into Boston. Host was quick to respond.

My husband and son and I had a wonderful stay in Cambridge. Leigh's home is super cute and well appointed. The location is perfect for walking around Cambridge and nearby areas. Being able to park on the street with a visitor's pass or in the spot held for the apartment was extremely helpful. Leigh was great to communicate with and very accommodating. We would definitely stay here again and hope to in the near future!
