"Great location near restaurants, shops and activities in Cambridge. This unit has everything you need in a hotel sized room. Additional space available to guests includes a rooftop with loungers and a BBQ, work space, communal kitchen and TV lounge which is nice. My preference would be for one king bed instead of two queen beds as you could use the extra space. Good for a single or couple."
