3.0 star property
8.4 out of 10, Very good, (1003)
"This is the third time my wife and I have stayed here -- we keep coming back because it's inexpensive and close to Cambridge. Rooms are modern and comfortable but lack power outlets beside the bed. Breakfast is quite comprehensive, offering hot and cold food. Parking is free but sometimes the parking lot gets quite crowded. Front desk staff are always friendly and helpful. One nice touch -- they have a couple of microwave ovens in the lobby for guest use. There are late-night supermarkets...

"You're above a pub, but right in the city centre, for real cheap. It's highly convenient, clean bathrooms and bedding, but be warned, it's above a pub. Its a bit noisy until late, but that's expected. Can't complain really. We left some headphones and keys behind but they were very kind to ship them back for us! Would recommend if you're in for a couple of nights and just need a bed. Gud price"

"The property is very conveniently located to allow great access to all the Cambridge sights. The room was lovely and well-appointed with teas, coffee and even hot chocolate.

That is the only criticism I would have. "

We booked the upgraded room and the main difference to our friends standard room seemed to be the room location and the size of and facilities in the bathroom (we had twin washbasins, large bath, separate large shower, bidet, wc). The breakfast was very good. Plenty of parking. No dinner facilities or bar, but close to lots of bars and restaurants in the town."
