Summary: This basement apartment is basic but functional. The apartment is located on a very busy four lane road. It rained really hard my first night and a little water was bubbling up from the floor tiles the next morning. I told my host about the water issue that morning and he resolved it by the time I returned that night. The apartment was bone dry upon my return.

Summary: The room was spacious and relatively clean. I could tell the owner makes an effort to make it comfortable for travelers. The house is located a few minute walk from the Fresh Pond where you could run/walk. There are grocery stores (Trader Joe's and Whole Foods) in walking distance (about 15-20 minutes). If you take 72 bus (or other routes), you can get to the Harvard Square in 10 minutes or so (you could even walk). That being said, as it is a basement room, it smells like a dusty basement. Also, you would hear people upstairs walking, and a bit noisy (I often heard people walking in the middle of night, like 1 or 2 am, and could not sleep). If you are not too sensitive to the smell or noise, it's a good place to stay.

Summary: I had a great time in Cambridge. The apartment is private and very confortable. With all the amenities needed. Really close by 72 bus to Harvard Square, about 5-10 min, or 25 if you prefer to walk. Victor was not in town, but his son was really nice and he was willing to help at all time.

Summary: Great stay for Easter Weekend. It was cold outside but very toasty inside. And now Wi- fi is available with good speed to stream anything you want so no need for TV. This was the 2nd time we stayed and loved it. The location and price is the best in the area. Even though it was April 2 and we had snow it was such a great sight to see the snow covered trees in this historic area. Definitely will be back.

Summary: My boyfriend and I have never been to Boston so we planned a last minute trip and thankfully, Victor's basement apartment in West Cambridge was available to book. We were interested in the downtown Boston area, which to our delight was only a 15-20 min quick uber ride from the apartment. If you plan on spending most of your trip out and about, then Victor's apartment is a great spot for you to rest your head. The pictures are very true to reality, and we had no issues (the ceiling is a little low so watch out if you are tall). Victor was also very accommodating and gave us recommendations for restaurants around the Cambridge area as well. All in all it was a perfect weekend getaway that we enjoyed very much!

Summary: Nice basement apartment as long as you're not too tall. Low ceilings were not a problem for us.Great for an efficiency apt. No sitting area but great size bedroom, kitchen and bath. The apartment was exactly as advertised and met our needs perfectly and much better than a hotel room would offer. The house is awesome and in a very nice neighborhood of Fresh Pond. The owners are very hospitable and accommodating. The only recommendation I would have is to offer internet/wifi. We definitely would rent again. Great local restaurants within walking distance. Also if you are an ex DECie have Victor share a great story with you.
