I had a confirmed reservation at the sister property (Inn at Harvard) but was shuttled to this property after they gave my room away to other guests. This hotel is substantially inferior. The entrance ... more on TripAdvisor

Great location but cramped room, air conditioning didn't work with an oppressively hot room even in the Fall, shower/tub didn't drain, remarkably uncaring and poorly trained staff. Way over-priced. Th ... more on TripAdvisor

Hotel would be great, but for the price, it should offer more amenities. more on PriceLine.com

They kept trying me to switch to the inn at Harvard even though it was late at night. I probably should have. The rooms were tiny (like NYC tiny), parking is scarce (which is why they wanted me to move because I brought a car and ... more on PriceLine.com
