Wonderful hotel, convenient for Cambridge

Wonderful hotel close to Harvard and Somerville. I have stayed at Hotel 1868 a few times and I’ve loved every stay. The staff is helpful and the hotel is in a great location to explore Cambridge and Somerville and right on the red line to get around the city.

These rooms were waaaaay smaller than anticipated. We were only there for 1 night but I would not have been able to have an extended stay there. The bathroom was a toilet and then shower/sink combo and there was no room to lay my suitcase down to open it.
