Pros: The location of this accommodation is truly exceptional. In my opinion, it is the best place to stay for someone visiting Cambridge for the first time with the intention of experiencing its academic and historical charm, because it perfectly matches the image one already has of Cambridge. The staff is very kind and always available to help.

Excellent for 1 nights stay, fantastic for The Corn Exchange and immediate Town Centre.

Pros: The location for The Corn Exchange was excellent (10 mins on foot).

Cons: The shared toilet had an odd smell (not dirty just a bit weird). The room was also very hot (we were unable to open any window).

Lovely stay

Pros: Very central, lots of charm. The room and bathroom were quite large and very light with a number of opening windows. Very pleasant and accommodating staff - we asked for all sorts of things, extra pillows, a change of towels, a late checkout, and there was no problem with any of this. All in all, a highly positive experience.

Cons: Problem with an extremely loud, faulty fire alarm, but this proved to be outside the college itself.

David 8/10

Fantastic location, great staff, perfect for an overnight stay.

Pros: Great location. Beautiful buildings and grounds. Extremely helpful staff in the porters’ lodge, where I was able to leave my belongings for the day before heading home. A typical, small, but very comfortable student room - and a great breakfast.

Cons: My room was in a modern block and very warm (no air con and a very hot summer!). A small window onto the street below helped. There was quite a big step up into the small shower cubicle, which was a bit tricky to negotiate at my age, but I lived to tell the tale…!
