Great

Pros: The porters were really helpful and if you wanted an evening meal you could get one on site which was great

Cons: The key was temperamental to get in and out of the gate

Great stay in Cambridge

Pros: I had a great time here! The room was big enough to be comfortable but without waiting space. There were several drawers and a nice closet. There was a good sitting and working desk with enough plugs around. The shower/toilet space was good and well equipped. The included breakfast was great, very good and tasty food that felt of good quality! I will return for sure if in Cambridge :)

Cons: The bed and pillow were not very confortable, but nothing grave. If the room would have had a mini fridge it would have been perfect!

Good entry to Cambridge

Pros: Walking distance to the centre along leafy streets and past the Uni library. Parking available in nearby street. The room was large and clean, but in a different building than the very lovely red brick main building.

value for money stay!

Pros: Stayed with a group of old friends. Reliving our student days. Clean and pleasant room, very helpful staff and generous breakfast.

Cons: It’s set away from the centre of town so be prepared to walk, cycle or drive.

Splendid!

Pros: Excellent breakfast and I bought dinner. Very good, very friendly and a bargain. Everyone I met was friendly and helpful. It's not my college but I thought it was a very good substitute. Better in a lot of ways. Not so 'up itself', as we say.

Cons: The room was a bit grubby. Not sure it had been 'refreshed'. The shower was cold in the morning. Maybe I wasn't working it right. Or possibly it was for nostalgics and people who wanted a true taste of the experience I enjoyed in 1975. Then it was all boys and the cold showers were probably insisted upon by the department of moral philosophy.
