    I stayed there for a few days this fall with my family. The apartment was elegantly decorated and recently remodeled with all amenities needed for a short stay. Appliances were new and clean. It was also quiet. It was about 10 minute walk away from nearest subway station. There was no parking on site but I did not have trouble parking on a nearby street. Overall, this place was exceptional. Highly recommended.

    What a wonderful experience!

    Dear reader, I took a chance with Rockwell Haven when I booked a room there in which my boyfriend's parents were to stay. Of course I was hoping for the very best, but Rockwell Haven exceeded everything I could have imagined. Jennifer, one of the owners, was so kind and gracious. She was very flexible and helpful throughout the weekend. She even made it possible for me to stop by earlier in the week to walk through the space and make sure it met my needs. Over the course of the weekend, when my boyfriend's parents had a little problem with the hot water, she took care of it right away and went out of her way to compensate us for any inconvenience. The space itself is gorgeous-- very clean, beautifully decorated. It was a lovely space for them and I know they really felt comfortable there. I highly recommend Rockwell Haven, so much so that I told Jennifer that if the B&B business doesn't work out and she'd like to rent, to please give me a call. Really, it was a fabulous experience! Sincerely, a happy Cambridge resident

    I was in Cambridge for a company conference and stayed at Rockwell Haven for 10 days. It's everything they said it would be - brand new, but warm feeling. Awesome location - I could just walk up to the T and I was at my conference in no time. They're also hands-off in a way that makes you feel like you're in your own apartment. But, when I needed to ask them something about, they were right there and very gracious. It's new and they're really trying to make it work - go and love it, just like I did. The value is second to none!!
