The former owner, Mr. Richard, was wonderful—he greeted guests each morning with a warm smile and engaging conversation, which truly made the stay feel personal and welcoming. Although Mr. Richard has retired, I am very pleased to see that the new owner has continued this tradition and carried on the legacy of providing an exceptional guest experience. HSH remains a place where guests are made to feel comfortable and valued. I highly recommend HSH to anyone visiting Boston, especially Harvard University and Harvard Square. ##### Fawn Stayed 2 nights in Dec 2025 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Keith Nov 14, 2025 Liked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities Clean albeit small room.
