The house is falling apart, very run down. Even though the cleaner made a huge effort to clean, it is actually not clean-able.Not sure how come this is listed on hotels.com ##### Marleneq Stayed 2 nights in Oct 2019 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller May 5, 2019 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort excellent location close to harvard square. the building is not in the best of shape but is more than sufficient for comfort. all the amenities are in excellent condition and i found the apartment very functional and well suited to my needs. arrival and checking in was very smooth and well managed. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in May 2019 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Jun 6, 2018 Disliked: Staff & service, room comfort It's convenient to Harvard Square and the T. There is no AC, which shouldn't be a problem in most, but not all months. But--Two days before my scheduled check-in, they sent me a message saying the space I had reserved months earlier was not available and my reservation was cancelled. I had plane fare and a commitment to be in Cambridge. WHAT IS THE PURPOSE OF A RESERVATION? Phone conversations with Expedia, totaling some 3 hours over two days, resulted in something being worked out with the property. The owner told Expedia those in the apt. I had reserved had extended their stay. CAN YOU LET SOMEONE EXTEND STAY IN A SPACE THAT'S BEEN RESERVED? The owner communicated to me that my reservation had been cancelled because the credit card I gave Expedia didn't work. It had worked for the airline, however. This was after he was renting us a space. The number he had was off by one digit from that which I gave Expedia. So maybe there was a typo, but THIS WAS A DIFFERENT story from the original communication. Also, if a card doesn't work, DO YOU SUMMARILY CANCEL SOMEONE'S RESERVATION AT THE LAST MINUTE WITHOUT EXPLANATION OR DO YOU ASK FOR ANOTHER CARD? It's always been the latter in my experience. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in May 2018 ### 6/10 Okay #### Leah May 14, 2018 Liked: Room comfort Disliked: Property conditions & facilities #### Know what it is before you arrive Location was good. Cambridge is an expensive place to stay. This is more of a VRBO type of set up than a hotel. ##### Leah ### 8/10 Good #### Mary, Silver Spring, MD Apr 18, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Convenient location near Harvard The property manager is easy to get in touch with and responds very quickly. I had some questions and they were answered politely and professionally. The apartment is clean and conveniently located and is a good price for the value. This is not a new place so if you are someone who needs a modern place or a slick-looking hotel room --this is not for you. However, if you want affordable accommodations in an older building with a living room, bedroom, and kitchen all to your own -- this is the place ! I stayed here while participating in the Boston marathon for the second time and it was again a great experience. I loved being able to relax and watch TV and then have my own cup of coffee in a cute little kitchen. It was perfect. If you are driving - Cambridge has resident parking everywhere and your own options are meters or a lot 1/4 mile away. No need for a car here, it's completely walkable with public transportation around the corner. ##### Mary Stayed 3 nights in Apr 2018 ### 6/10 Okay #### Chris Mar 19, 2018 Liked: Staff & service, room comfort #### Great place and location...but a little dirty We had a comfortable stay over the weekend but it needed a little sprucing up. Under the bed it was filthy - hadn't been swept there for weeks which is a little off putting.... but generally a pleasant experience. Thank you ##### Chris Stayed 3 nights in Mar 2018 ### 6/10 Okay #### yuki, Kanagawa Japan Feb 12, 2018 Liked: Cleanliness Convenient location yet it does not look like a place for tourists to stay but just a house. It's also hard to find at night because it does not have a sign or anything like that. ##### yuki Stayed 2 nights in Feb 2018 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Verified traveller Nov 16, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Excellent price and location The room is spacious -- three rooms plus bath. Location can't be beat. The flat is very much "grad student" in quality, but for the price and the location it can't be beat. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Nov 2017 ### 6/10 Okay #### Nancy, Pittsburgh, PA Oct 28, 2017 Liked: Cleanliness, room comfort #### Close to son's dorm at Harvard It was the weekend of the Head of the Charles and the hotels in Harvard Sq I usually stay at when visiting my son were asking a king's ransom for a room. Then I discovered Karma House! Very moderate price for a 3-room apartment! I wish I had known about it three years ago when my son was a freshman. It's a little rough around the edges, but clean and the staff is friendly. Great location for all I was doing in Cambridge that visit. As there is no check-in desk, I had to wait till the day of check-in to get an email with check-in instructions. This was difficult for someone like me who likes to plan ahead. I had tried to call, and sent a message via Expedia. Unfortunately, my phone wasn't set up for voicemail when the property manager called back, but Karma House did try to reach me. I just wasn't prepared to answer a call from a strange number located in NJ. ##### Nancy Stayed 1 night in Oct 2017 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller Oct 4, 2017 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### This isn't a hotel. Strange multi-apartment building. You need to call the number you get a code to get in, and text them for the wifi. Fridge full of half-eaten food. Not what I expected from Expedia. Bed was OK. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Oct 2017 ### 4/10 Poor #### Verified traveller Sep 29, 2017 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### You should not stay here This property should not be listed by Expedia. It was a total disappointment. It was very difficult to get in touch with anyone. I am trying to get ready for work and the power goes off and the maintenance person is going to be a couple of hours before he can get there. I had to go to the basement and find the breaker box so I could use a dryer to get ready for work Expedia should not have this property on their site. Sherry Cosper and Steve Poston ##### Verified traveller Stayed 3 nights in Sep 2017 ### 2/10 Terrible #### PJK, Washington DC May 24, 2017 Disliked: Staff & service #### Worse Ever Lodging Experience Look like it is graduate school housing in transition. Hallway and stairs filled with clutter, shipped paint. Residence overbooked; double booked the room I was allocated on arrival and at 9:30 p.m. I was requested to vacate; when I provided my confirmed booking I was still hassled to leave - including knocking on my door at 11:00 p.m. by the person who claimed I was "squatting" in his room - even though I had been given the occupancy and was in bed sleeping. How did he get in and to my room on the third floor - walk up. I have filed a harassment report with the local police. No manager was on location to pay for the room either on arrival or departure - only the maintenance person. Without authorization someone submitted a bank debit. ##### PJK ### 8/10 Good #### François Sep 18, 2016 Liked: Staff & service, room comfort #### Séjour "american way of life" Boston et environs Avons effectué 2 séjours de 3 jours, emplacement idéal pour accéder facilement aux campus de Harvard et du MIT, accès rapide à Boston par le métro. Quartier résidentiel calme, dans un écrin de verdure à deux pas de Cambridge et de son animation étudiante. Maison en bois , bien équipée pour séjour en famille, avec ambiance typiquement américaine, on se sent vraiment "at home". Permis de parking fourni par le propriétaire, obligatoire (sinon, amende de 30 $ par jour) Pas d'e-mail disponible pour prendre contact avec le gérant à l'avance pour le check-in, donc ne pas hésiter à le joindre avec par téléphone ou SMS pour les informations. ##### François ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller Aug 11, 2016 Liked: Cleanliness #### Hotel was close to Harvard square, transportation Roomy. It was more of an apartment rather than a hotel room. Air conditioning handled the bedroom adequately but the living room and kitchen was quite warm. ##### Verified traveller ### 2/10 Terrible #### Dustin, DO NOT STAY HERE Aug 9, 2016 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### DO NOT STAY HERE This is a place to stay if you are fresh out of high school and are looking to experience the college life. it I were going to summarize this location by a few words it would be: small, dirty, uncomfortable, cramped and unrefined... AKA do not stay here. ##### Dustin ### 8/10 Good #### Wendy, Silver Lake, NH Aug 7, 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, room comfort #### Home away from home Fantastic quality and price balance. It had home away from home comfort, so it didn't feel like a hotel, but like staying in your own home. Beautiful old apartment in converted house with old wood floors. The house was oozing charm and comfort. The Cambridge Karma House would be my first choice when returning to the Boston area. ##### Wendy ### 8/10 Good #### Ken, Tacoma WA Aug 7, 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great location Very spacious, clean and convenient to points of interest in Cambridge. ##### Ken ### 6/10 Okay #### Bryan, Jacksonville Jul 27, 2016 Disliked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort Location is awesome.

Locks we covered with tape and said don't remove will fix soon.

Dependable, thanks. Very happy with the rental. Hotel service a 3 only because it is basically an apartment. ##### Felix ### 8/10 Good #### Ben, Kansas City Apr 28, 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort #### Great for the price. I didn't know what to expect but was happy with my stay. Living room, Bed room, Kitchen, even though I didn't need it. Bath room was nice. This is not a modern room so don't expect the Hilton but not the price either. ##### Ben ### 8/10 Good #### kathy l, Florence Ma Apr 6, 2016 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities, room comfort The hotel room was more of an apartment setting. Very comfortable and spacious. It was a convenient 5 min walk to Harvard Square. My only complaint is that the family upstairs had very active young children/ child and the running around was very noisy. I didn't spend a lot of time in the apt so it was manageable. If the situation remains the same and you're planning to be home all day, it might not be optimal. Other than that, all was well. ##### kathy l ## Expedia's Latest Trends ### Hotels > [Pennyweight Hotel Boston, Curio Collection by Hilton](https://www.expedia.ca/Boston-Hotels-Kimpton-Onyx-Hotel.h980972.Hotel-Information) > > [Charlesmark Hotel](https://www.expedia.ca/Boston-Hotels-Charlesmark-Hotel.h845522.Hotel-Information) > > [West Roxbury Retreat–Near Downtown Boston, Steps to Train & Bus,member only deal](https://www.expedia.ca/Boston-Hotels-WestEnd-Deluxe-Suite.h66787103.Hotel-Information) > > [Holiday Inn Express & Suites Boston - Cambridge by IHG](https://www.expedia.ca/Boston-Hotels-Holiday-Inn-Express-Suites-Boston-Cambridge.h64573.Hotel-Information) > > [Homewood Suites by Hilton Boston Seaport District](https://www.expedia.ca/Boston-Hotels-Homewood-Suites-By-Hilton-Boston-Seaport.h56289302.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Las Vegas](https://www.expedia.ca/Las-Vegas-Hotels.d178276.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Renovated Beach House with 180 degree Ocean Views, Steps to the Sand](https://www.expedia.ca/Hull-Hotels-Renovated-Beach-House-With-180-Degree-Ocean-Views.h90893976.Hotel-Information) > > [Picton Harbour Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Belleville-Hotels-Picton-Harbour-Inn.h6550759.Hotel-Information) > > [Gage Suites at UBC](https://www.expedia.ca/Vancouver-Hotels-Gage-Residence-At-UBC.h9614159.Hotel-Information) > > [Inns Ontario](https://www.expedia.ca/Ontario-Inns.d11178-aaInns.Travel-Guide-Accommodation) > > [Spacious Home with Sprawling Yard!](https://www.expedia.ca/Orleans-Hotels-Spacious-Home-With-Sprawling-Yard.h92092199.Hotel-Information) > > [Ships Inn](https://www.expedia.ca/Nantucket-Hotels-Ships-Inn.h11217425.Hotel-Information) > > [Hampton Inn Boston Seaport District](https://www.expedia.ca/Boston-Hotels-Hampton-Inn-Boston-Seaport.h55421972.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel Ivy Boston Common](https://www.expedia.ca/Boston-Hotels-Found-Hotel-Boston-Common.h15746.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotel 1620 Plymouth Harbor](https://www.expedia.ca/Plymouth-Hotels-Hotel-1620-Plymouth-Harbor.h9001.Hotel-Information) > > [Club Quarters Hotel Faneuil Hall, Boston](https://www.expedia.ca/Boston-Hotels-Club-Quarters-Hotel-In-Boston.h66938.Hotel-Information) > > [Boston's Finest New Renovated Apartment ](https://www.expedia.ca/Boston-Hotels-Bostons-Finest-New-Renovated-Apartment.h71640528.Hotel-Information) > > [Hotels in Varennes](https://www.expedia.ca/Varennes-Hotels.d60096.Travel-Guide-Hotels) > > [Hidden Gem in Boston: Long Term 1 Month + Only](https://www.expedia.ca/Boston-Hotels-Hidden-Gem-In-Boston-Long-Term-1-Month-Only.h99251759.Hotel-Information) > > [Omni Boston Hotel at the Seaport](https://www.expedia.ca/Boston-Hotels-Omni-Boston-Hotel-At-The-Seaport.h68014393.Hotel-Information) ### Flights > [Flights from Faro (FAO) to Maia (OPO)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/fao/opo/faro-to-porto) > > [Flights from Dallas, TX (DFW-Dallas-Fort Worth Intl.) to New York, NY (NYC-All Airports)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/dfw/nyc/dallas-to-new-york) > > [Sterling Blue](https://www.expedia.ca/Arajet-Flights.cDM.Travel-Guide-Airlines) > > [Cebu Pacific](https://www.expedia.ca/Cebu-Pacific-Flights.c5J.Travel-Guide-Airlines) > > [Flights from St. John's (YYT) to Sydney (SYD)](https://www.expedia.ca/lp/flights/yyt/syd/st-johns-to-sydney) ### Packages > [Theater District Vacations](https://www.expedia.ca/Theater-District.d6157019.Destination-Travel-Guides)
