Excellent location, close to Davis Square and Tufts which was our reason for visiting. Short walk to the T to get into downtown Boston and many fine restaurants nearby. House was in great shape and there was a pleasant sitting room which even had a cat to pet.

The house was nice. But our room had a musty smell to it. Not sure if it was from the a/c or the carpeting in the room. But other than that we found the bed nice and the location was good for getting into downtown.

It is clean and quiet, but not convenient.
If you have lot of luggage it will be hard because there's no elevator for 2nd and 3rd floor room. If you stay more than one or two days, there is no laundry facility either. The 3rd floor room is essentially attic room

Our day and a half in Boston was pretty disappointing as parking and traffic downtown were very frustratining. The only redeeming feature of our trip was the 2 nights at the Davis Inn. We found it to be a peaceful, comfortable, place in the midst of Cambridge/Sommerville area. We would
recommend it to anyone.

I do like the character of older houses especially when they offer all the modern amenities. The room was clean and comfortable with a microwave and fridge/freezer combo.The room had features well suited to my elderly age group. Easy access to premises. Well located for days in Boston and environs.
