    Coffee was good, a big plus for me. Free parking is also a plus for the Boston area. Continental breakfast was better than most. Toasted English muffin,... boiled eggs and a sweet roll hit the spot. They keep coffee and tea available all the time. I would suggest some night time tea, camomile and mint would be nice! Nice room, warm on a very cold night.... Reviewed by a Hotels.com guest on Jan 28, 2013

    A short guide to Cambridge

    Cambridge’s celebrated universities, the Massachusetts Institute of Technology and Harvard, take full advantage of the scenic Charles River. Harvard Square, at Massachusetts Avenue and Brattle Street, is a hotbed of activity, both intellectual and otherwise. Down the road, Central Square supports a lively music scene. Young bohemians trend toward neighboring Somerville, north of Cambridge.

    Wonderful staff, nice and accommodating b+b. Bathrooms are a bit worn and need some updating. However all said if you find yourself in need of a room in the Cambridge or college area. Stay here. Short walk to the T- less than 5 blocks and a quiet neighborhood make for a pleasant stay.

    In the dining room, they could have been more careful to wipe tables off after use. Saw table reset without a clean sweep of crumbs, etc Also, they did not have prepared decaf coffee - only could be made individually with instant coffee bags - which I feel is something that should be offered in an inn these days. Otherwise, the stay was fine - just […] those 2 things were a bit of a turn-off Read more

    I was very happy when I entered our room. I loved the victorian decor, the cleanliness of the room, and the location of our room which was directly across from the breakfast dining area. Our canopied bed was comfortable and we slept very well. I would definitely recommend this B & B Inn to anyone visiting Cambridge, Mass.

    A charming B&B that has about 25 to 30 rooms in two 1890s homes. One is "modern", and one is "Victorian." We chose the modern, and will try the Victorian next trip to Boston.

    When we booked on line, they had beautiful rooms, very Victorian and beautiful! It was the price of a high priced hotel...thought it would be pretty down town Cambridge...they took us next door to a white house, they had bought and made for this purpose. It was very much like a Hotel 6.. Dirty, a small air conditioner in the wall, coll Chinese decor., […] not Victorian at all! We asked and they said oh no the other yellow house cost lot more to stay there!!! There was mold on the floor in the shower, and the toilet hadn't been for years! Would never ever stay there again! For the cheap price... they miss advertised the wrong building! Read more

    We really liked the location. Short walk to the train and a very nice neighborhood. Great store across the street. Such a shame. Everything was good except the bed. It was like sleeping on a board. After the 2nd night our backs were hurting and we were ready to go. We would like to visit again but unfortunatly the bed is the first word in Bed and Breakfast […] and someone made a big mistake when they purchased the mattresses. Read more

    Stayed here to visit my son and go to a Red Sox game. Five min walk to the Davis Square T stop. Friendly staff, nice room, good light breakfast. Not fancy but pleasant for a short stay. Convenient free parking a plus.

    The bed really was Victorian -- 4-poster with canopy and steps to get up into it. Bathroom was sparkling clean, and room service was every day. Only two slight "knocks." "A Cambridge House Inn" is a bit misleading for a place two subway stops into Sommerville, but neighborhood was nice and it was within a 30-minute walk (good for me) of Harvard Square. […] Breakfast was continental plus cold cereal and hard-boiled eggs -- fine, but not quite a "full breakfast" by UK standards. But overall, a good deal and a nice place to stay. Read more

    Don't expect a cozy, friendly B&B experience. The staff is indifferent, stays in the office. Breaksfast was very disappointing - self-serve continental with nothing fresh. Stale pastries, cereal, and hard boiled eggs is about all you get. The room was fine.

    The room was tiny, with less room in the closet than I have ever seen. We could not hang our clothes. There was no dresser in room, either, so we lived out of suitcases.

    The only thing good about this place is that it was close to where we were meeting our client. The room they placed me in was not in the building that is shown on the website, but a next door, a less than desirable place. When I asked about this, I was told that the other building is what was paid for. "Breakfast" is in the main building.

    The two old houses that comprise the Cambridge Inn B & B were absolutely charming. We had what was billed as a "Contemporary Room" which was located in the secondary house, and while not Victorian in decor it was decorated very tastefully and not at all modern. The dining room where the breakfast buffet is located is in the primary Victorian home's […] parlor replete with fireplace which was lit in the mornings. The food was adequate, cereal, granola, fruit, breads and sweet rolls. I would recommend the Cambridge Inn B & B as a great value in a wonderful neighborhood close to excellent ethnic restaurants and two subway stations. Read more

    My wife and I visited our daughter and son-in-law for a few days this week. They suggested the Cambridge House. This was a great recommendation. The staff was courteous and friendly, the room unfailingly clean, and the atmosphere very quiet. A great fresh market store is located across the street which made it convenient to pick up beverages, etc. Parking […] is included and adjacent to the facility. Breakfast is available daily from 7 a.m. to 10 a.m. and beverages (coffee, tea, etc) are available 24 hours. A few hot items on the breakfast buffet would be an improvement. A small refrigerator in the room also would have been nice. As far as negatives go, there was a slight problem with reception of local channels on the cable system. As I am mobility impaired, another negative was that our room required climbing a fairly steep stairway. Of course, in the future, I can request a room on the ground floor. Overall, we were very impressed with this property and would not hesitate to recommend it or to stay again in the future. Read more

    The rooms are clean, the bed's comfortable, the places is decent. Usually, breakfast is good. This was my fourth overnight stay here in the last two months. I'll probably stay there again, but I noticed some things this time that will make me look for an alternative (although there are usually no other low cost quality alternatives). First, even though […] I'm athletic and don't mind lugging a wheelie around, the room required me to walk up and downstairs twice_first to get to the second floor and then actually on the second floor (two landings). In the hallway in front of my room was a vacuum cleaner (with power cord unwound which made me almost trip with my overnight suit bag) and a bucket with cleaning products and rags (what, no utility closet anywhere?). At least it could have been neatly situated so I could maneuver my wheely without turning sideways! In the morning, I thought the included continental breakfast (usually pretty good) started at 6:30am but I may have had the time wrong. No one was there, and no staff was anywhere in sight. I walked around the corner to Starbucks. When I returned to check out at 7:10am, no staff was available to retrieve the key. I looked up and down the floor, but to no avail. I had to leave the old-style key on the counter in front of the locked check-out counter. Still, the place is decent, the staff (when around) are usually very pleasant, and the rooms (except for the tiny flat-screen TVs) are clean, comfortable and OK. Never let them give you room 303, however, unless you don't mind walking up and down, up and down stairs.... Read more

    This place is fantastic! The staff are all very welcoming, the breakfast has plenty of options, the coffee was even really good. The location is about 3-4 blocks from the Davis Square stop on the T, and the neighborhood is really nice. We stayed in a contemporary room, and everything was nice and modern. Cleaned every day, and it seems like all the […] details are looked after. When I visit the area again, this place is top of my list to stay. The only thing is if you're looking for a big tv, this isn't for you. The tv was a small (15"-17") LCD attached to a wall high-up...but given everything to do in the area, I never had time for tv anyhow. The local theater at the square has a "Bad art museum" on the lower floors that you have to check out too. Read more
