Nice room with free parking and small breakfast available. The room could be cleaner, I’ve found hair in the shower but everything else was good!

We love this place so much that you will need to come here to experience yourself. Warm hospitality, cozy vibes, free snacks, fruits, tea and coffee and a well functioning kitchen to cook light meals. Quiet neighborhood and lovely view from the window. Bird singing to wake you up and you can chill all day in the house if you don’t have plans lol.  Nancy中英都能溝通，在這裡留宿三晚受到她暖暖的款待，鄉村風格的擺設和設計相當有溫暖，來這裡會想要一直拍照，如果是春天來，風景應該會更漂亮！位於哈佛和MIT中間位置，走路皆能抵達，附近商店餐廳選擇多，下次若還來出差或是觀光，優先選擇這裡！

I came to the United States to look at universities and happened to stay here. It is close to Harvard. The houses in the neighborhood are boldly colored and simple in structure. I took photos of them all and had fun going in and out every day.

房間還可以，預訂的時候沒有仔細看，到了地方發現是民宿，位置較好，處於麻省和哈佛大學中間，去哪都方便。

Ginkgo is a small hotel near Central Square primarily serving the community connected to Harvard and MIT. The property feels like a small inn or private home and is located in a residential area. My room (#15) was on the ground floor off the lobby, with a comfortable king size bed, chair and desk, and bathroom. Clean, comfortable and quiet were the major characteristics. The hotel manager is a very sweet Chinese-American woman who personally engages with all the guests. Enjoyed my stay and would return.

Beautiful Victorian home, very clean and Nancy was lovely. Only issue for us was our room didn’t have a working bathroom fan so after showers our room was pretty humid. We did have a window air conditioning unit so we just turned that on to cool off the room. Would absolutely stay there again.
