While the room was clean and the registration clerk was friendly, the property is on the shabby side. It was a very bare bones experience. Water pressure was a trickle. Fine for a quick stop for budget travelers. We appreciated the free parking!

Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service
The staff very lovely. The hotel was clean and quiet despite being near the road. The hotel needs general updating. It was nice to have a garden area but we could not sit out there as there were nettles and the chairs needed cleaning. It would be good to have a breakfast option. The restaurant that was advertised nearby was a bit disappointing if you are looking for a full English type breakfast but got free hot drinks if you mention the hotel! The hotel is generally fine if you are only there for a day or two. The lovely staff make the hotel.

Quaint place, needs a bit of TLC though. The staff were very friendly and attentive and we appreciated the short cancellation period during these turbulent times. Everything was clean but the rooms could definitely do with some freshening up.

Delvyn

Disliked: Staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities
Cons: This is a shabby old hotel. Holes in the walls, rips in the wallpaper. It's clean. They say they will provide housekeeping every three days, but I had to ask on day 4, and all they did was provide new towels and empty the trash. They did not clean the toilet or sink or provide new bed sheets or vacuum. There is rarely someone working at the front desk, so I found it impossible to get them to address this issue. Pros: It's clean, at least, and the staff are friendly - when you can find them. It's a 10 minute walk to the train station, and about 20 minutes by bus to the center of town.

Great location for visiting Cambridge Junction

Fantastic welcome and comfortable room. An ideal stopover for enjoying a gig at Cambridge junction (2 minute walk away). The food in the restaurant downstairs was delicious and service great too. Tip - swipe the room keycards really fast or they don’t work. Lovely wooden staircases (lots of them).

Great location

Great location, 15 min walk from Cambridge central station and Addenbrookes Hospital with numerous buses in between. Doesn't do breakfast but there are places nearby. Would be an improvement if a light snack box was available. A Chinese restaurant is open on site for lunch and dinner. Staff were lovely and so helpful and informative. Hotel price was very reasonable, limited hours reception with other hrs phone contact details provided.
