Guest reviews
Good
Clean and comfortable hotel in a good location for exploring Cambridge. Good value
Liked: Clean and comfortable room. Good location for Cambridge sites.
Disliked: Nothing springs to mind.
Great hotel for a weekend in Cambridge
Liked: Great location
Disliked: Parking is a bit haphazard- first come first served makes planning difficult
Just don't stay there
Liked: location
Disliked: Facilities in room 136 were unacceptable. The bathroom was in a cupboard with no fan or ventilation of any kind and a door that didn't close. The water flow in the shower was barely a trickle and not enough to wash with. The carpet was dirty, the bed looked and felt like it was 20 years old. Though it was cold outside, the room was stifling so the small old window had to be open despite the fact that someone could have entered through the window, as there was stairs to the area outside. You could hear water from other rooms emptying into a drain or something right outside the window. The room was dark and dank. I haven't seen a hotel room this bad since the 1980s.
Friendly reception staff but wouldn’t stay again
Liked: Staff were very friendly
Disliked: Very dated. Plug socket too far from kettle so had to put on the floor to use (not ideal). Bed wasn’t comfortable very worn and you just sunk.
When we arrived we had to wait for 15 minutes because they could not find our room as the receptionist was new. We had
Liked: Clean and near the city
Disliked: Dark room with a brick wall for a view. No hangers in wardrobe. No hairdryer.
Comfortable and Lovely staff
Liked: Lovely staff and comfortable rooms
Disliked: A little noisy but the road and our secondary glazing was partially missing so not at all effective.
