The bed was incredibly comfortable, and we had some of our best sleep while traveling. Everything was clean and well maintained. Ginkgo House felt like home as soon as we arrived, with a warm, inviting space that was thoughtfully put together and easy to settle into. We loved our stay and would happily return. I’d recommend it to anyone looking for a comfortable, homey place.

Nancy was such a wonderful host and made us feel welcome and at home. The beds were really comfortable, and the location was perfect for Harvard’s graduation. What a gem. We’ll definitely come back! ♥️

The owners are so kind and flexible, and Ginkgo is a quiet, homey place. I arrived at 7am one day, and they let me leave my luggage, offered coffee and snacks, and gave me a place to change. I had a fabulous stay and highly recommend it to anyone looking for a place in Cambridge.

We chose Ginko house for our son’s graduation and had a super fantastic time. It offered the friendly, casual feel we wanted along with classical formal housing. Nancy was a superb host. The rooms were very clean and comfortable, the living room cozy, and coffee and tea were available 24/7. Highly recommend Ginko House.

The location made it easy to walk to Harvard Square, coffee shops, and playgrounds, while the house itself was tucked away and peaceful. Having a kitchen for our own food, a dining room for meals, and a living area to lounge and read was a huge plus. The hosts welcomed us warmly and went out of their way to help, even with our two little ones along. Our rooms were spotless, cozy, and thoughtfully decorated, and the beds felt great after long days exploring Cambridge. We felt at home from the start and are grateful for such a lovely stay. We’d absolutely return next time we’re in town.
