Our Sweet Retreat is quietly hidden away in the heart of Cambridge, steps from a cafe, bike sharing, MBTA, Harvard, MIT, shops, and eateries — as well as equidistant to Harvard, Inman, and Central Squares. The apartment is comfortably furnished and INCLUDES off street PARKING!
We will greet you and point you to the historical, artsy, free, outdoors, music, restaurants, beaches, and etc. As friendly, long time Cambridge residents (designers and world travelers!), we know the hidden gems too.
The space
This apartment is a hidden gem. It is bright, cheery, quiet, and steps away from every mode of transportation and convenience you need to enjoy all that Cambridge (and beyond) has to offer.
The main room has a comfortable space for sitting and a long L shaped counter for working or sipping coffee. There is an apartment sized refrigerator, microwave, coffee maker and electric tea pot — along with dishes, bowls, and etc. It does not have a stove or oven, but we can provide a counter top appliance if you want to cook meals.
The full bathroom/shower has a well lit mirror, hair dryer, and fluffy (colorful!) towels.
The cozy bedroom has a double bed, full dresser, and great lamps for reading before bed.
You walk down seven short steps into a contemporary furnished room. Five windows let in sunshine (and cool breezes in the summer)!
Clean and safe are our priorities!
Guest access
Guests have access to this entire cute little apartment through a private entrance.
If you have a car you can park it outside your door, which is truly a luxury in the heart of Cambridge!
Other things to note
Our Sweet Retreat can only accommodate at maximum two guests! Unfortunately there is no way to safely accommodate more than two guests. IF you decide to invite an additional person, please contact me- as there are high fees associated with additional guest.

Neighborhood highlights
This is an old neighborhood of owner occupied homes once used as servants' quarters for the Brattle Street mansions near Harvard Square in the old, Victorian days. We neighbors all know each other, so things run smoothly. It is safe, quiet, friendly, and has GREAT coffee steps away.

My daughter and I lived in Vietnam for the better part of 7 years, and our home is definitely a mini gallery of our travels. I am positive you will feel very happy to be in the midst of lovely colors, interesting books, and, best of all, in a seemingly quiet corner of Cambridge, tucked away, that in actuality — is in the center of all!
