This was a well priced option near Cambridge and walking distance to Davis Square. We stayed here for a few nights to visit friends and had a very comfortable experience. Would stay again!
Great stay, reasonable price for being close to Downtown Boston and easy to access transportation. Clean room and shared bathroom, 24/7 air conditioned. Would stay again.
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.
Very beautiful place- clean- property in very good condition, nice big rooms- the owners are very kind, breakfast was good, the owner was baking for us delicious pastries every day, we will definitely go back
Very happy with our stay. We chose Davis Square Inn for the very close subway stop and were happy to find a lot of dining options in easy walking distance. Check in was easy and breakfast food were fresh and tasty. Definitely would stay again!
Nice bathroom in our room and great walkable location to Davis Square. Yummy homemade muffins and banana bread too!

Room was a little musty.
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.
Wonderful historic property. Room was spacious with a balcony, air conditioning and beautiful bathroom. We could be at the train station in 5 min walking. Very nice owners.
Warmy and comfy Place 🙏
everything was very nice. and you felt welcome. everything scrupulously clean. and organized, enjoy the Coffee that they have for breakfast, thank you very much for sharing your house on those winter days, very pleasant and comfortable
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.
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
Dear Susan, Linde and Rod, thank you very much for the wonderful time in your B&B. I really enjoyed the cosy breakfasts with fresh cake and the nice evening discussions with the other guests. See you soon. With kind regards from Stralsund, Edgar
I required a place to stay during a course, and this was a great location for me because I did not need certain amenities like a fitness center, but needed a safe and clean place for rest and freshening up at the end of the day. It was clean, check-in was simple and smooth, and it had all the things needed in a hotel room. This is a beautiful old historic home on a really nice street, and, fortunately, has air conditioning and nicely upgraded bathrooms. I did not have time to experience the breakfast set up but it looked very nice. The broader neighborhood has many restaurants and shops which are also great and easily accessible.
