Top West Cambridge Hotel Reviews

The Revolution Hotel

The Revolution Hotel

8/10 Good
"Hotel was in a good neighborhood, and close enough to walk to main attractions. Staff was attentive and helpful. Only caution...the rooms are small, if you get one with a bathroom inside the room (as opposed to group bathrooms down a hallway), the floor tends to flood after taking a shower. Lastly, be prepared to do some yoga bends to get in and out of the queen size bed that barely fits in the room."
