"Very spacious and clean rooms, with friendly and helpful staff. Overall, it was an enjoyable and comfortable stay.
The only downside is the location, if you're planning to visit the university area, it's not within walking distance. You'll need a car or taxi to get around."
"Very convenient location to visit Cambridge. Small room with basic furniture but clean. Breakfast offered several options and staff was very kind. My room was in a concrete block so I missed the atmosphere of living in one of the historical buildings. However, the room was facing one of the inner courtyards and was silent at night. Ensuite bathroom was really very very tiny. Overall, a pleasant experience - well recommended."

"Huge comfortable bed, standard king room was a great size, best of all zero noise outside the room, not a sound. Great choice of breakfast food, all very fesh, reasonable price. Parking on site and a bus stop accross the road takes you into central Cambridge or station."
"This hotel had everything I needed. The little kitchenette was so useful and the breakfast in the morning was enough to keep me going. The bed was very comfortable and the bathroom clean and highly functional. Would definitely stay here again."
"We loved our stay here. Very reasonable but still a lovely hotel and the staff were all very friendly and efficient.
An easy walk into the city, just over the bridge and through the park.
I would highly recommend here to anyone. "
