Attractive, good location, but not too comfy

The hotel location was perfect - steps from the T line and the decor was very interesting. Our room was very small but functional. The biggest problem was the bed. At 5'1" it was very difficult for me to get in and out of the bed due to the height of the mattress. Also, the room was located in the old fire house portion which meant that every time a T train approached or left the station the entire room rumbled and the outside noise was fairly loud - we were on the 3rd floor. The 'firehouse' breakfast was good but the dining area carpet was very stained giving the appearance that the room was not clean. Overall for the special price it was not bad but I would not consider staying there again, especially for the regular room rate.

Funky Decor, Classy Hotel

This place exceeded my expectations enormously. For the price I paid I never would have expected such superior service and lavish accommodations. I was attending a conference at MIT and staying in such a wonderful room just a couple of blocks away insured that I was bright-eyed and bushy-tailed each morning. Obviously, highly recommended.

Great Hotel for the Price

Affordable hotel just outside of Boston, one block from mass transit and you're in Boston. One complaint is that the alternate on-site parking has GIGANTIC puddles, watch where you step when it rains!

Very convenient Location

The location was very easy to get to by T. Meeting at MIT was right across the street. Breakfast with hot items of scrambled eggs, bacon, French toast included with room rate was excellent value. The room on the top floor has low ceiling but was otherwise in good conditions.

Great Location for MIT meetings

The Kendall is a great choice for business at MIT and is right next to the T so the rest of the Boston area is accessible. Breakfast and free wireless, a social hour in the evening plus the little restaurant and bar make it a delightful place to stay.

Very Convenient

The hotel is across the street from a red line T station - very easy to get to from the airport. The room was clean and very comfortable, and the included breakfast was quite good.

Very good location, charming hotel

I really enjoyed the hotel and it's historic 'feel.' The staff were kind and my only complaint was a handicap accessible shower that leaked water onto the bathroom floor. Other than that, the room was lovely and the breakfast was very nice. It was a great location right at the Kendall T stop in Cambridge and very convenient.
