1 Bedroom Apartment in Central Square, Cambridge

Immaculate, sunny, spacious one-bedroom apartment with a fully-stocked large kitchen, free washer/dryer, and free on-street parking. Easy walk to Harvard, HBS, MIT.
_
This is the only short-term rental I have, and it's in the same building where I live with my family. We mostly host through the listing service that has the word “air” in its name. On that site, we have 100% 5-star ratings – that’s more than 200 5-star ratings.
_
The location is near the intersection of Kinnaird St. and Jay St. in Cambridge MA, so if you have questions about distances, use your mapping app to check the distance from that intersection. We are an 8-minute walk to the Red Line metro station at Central Square.
_
My cancellation policy is as fair as can be: if you cancel, I will issue a refund for all nights that get booked by somebody else. Contact me after your dates have passed to see if someone else took the dates. (Don't bother to contact me sooner than that). If nobody else books your dates, there will be no refund, and there are no exceptions.
_
DETAILS:
This spacious, light-filled one-bedroom apartment accommodates four adults plus one infant. (Queen bed, queen sofabed, pack-n-play.)
_
The kitchen is large, and stocked with silverware, plates, bowls, glasses, pots and pans. It has a gas range, and solid granite countertops.
_
Parking is on the public street, but it's very easy to find a spot right in front of the house. You'll find the parking permit on the table when you arrive. The permit is for any car, even if you do not have local license plates. Be sure the permit is visible on the driver's side dashboard.
_
The bedroom is private and very quiet. There is also a pack-n-play for babies. (This is a portable baby bed / playpen.) There is a full-length mirror on the back of the closet door, and there are two portable makeup mirrors.
_
The living room has lots of light and a nice backyard view. There is a queen sleeper sofa. A standard queen mattress is 60" x 80", while this sofabed's mattress is 60" x 72".
_
There is a $40 nightly charge for each guest beyond two.
_
The bathroom is gorgeous, filled with light and style.
_
You have your own large, high-quality front-loading washing machine and clothes dryer, which you can use at no additional cost. I provide detergent, and there's an iron and ironing board, too.
_
You also have a wireless laserjet printer/scanner. But unless you let me know in advance that you need to use the printer, I cannot guarantee that the ink cartridge will work, since it is used rarely and the ink might dry out.
_
In the living room, there is a 55" 4K TV (TCL Roku), connected to an Xfinity cable modem. We have absolutely no idea how it works and cannot provide technical support. Links to the user’s manual and quickstart guide are provided below.
_
Check-in is after 4pm, and check-out is by 10am. Early check-in and late check-out are generally not possible, but feel free to leave your luggage in the basement bulkhead next to your entryway (careful on the stairs!).
_
The backyard is not intended for guests but if you contact me in advance I can make an exception and reserve it for you. We use the backyard when you're not using it. It's full of flowers and is a lovely place to hang out.
_
$100 charge if parking permit not returned.
_
If you need to change your dates, please do so through the web site...there's no need to contact me, because I can't do anything -- you have to do it on the web site. (o:
_
Guest access
You will have a private entrance, and you will have the whole apartment to yourself. Access is by a computerized lock. Sabbath key available on request.
_
OTHER THINGS TO NOTE:
Please be sure your booking accurately reflects the number of guests.
_
Park on the street using the permit we provide. Put it in front of the driver's seat, all the way to that side of the dashboard. You do not need local license plates.
_
Quiet time is 9:00 p.m. - 6:30 a.m. You will be staying in our family's home, and we will be right upstairs. The neighborhood is very quiet, except for birdsong. Please don't smoke in the house or make a ruckus.
_
House Rules:
_
1. Please be sure your booking accurately reflects the number of guests. There is a charge of $40 for each guest above two.
_
2. No noisy parties, no smoking. We live right upstairs.
_
3. To avoid wasting fossil fuels, please be sure windows are closed when heating or air conditioning is in use.
_
4. No chairs or other furniture on lawn. Please don't damage any plants.
_
5. Don’t forget to log out of any services you log into on the smart TV. Truly, we cannot provide any technical support on the TV, but below you have the Quick Start guide and the full User's Manual.
