“Everything you would expect..and more”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 28 May 2011

The staff were friendly and helpful. The rooms and towels were spotlessly clean, the beds comfortable. Each room had TV, clock/radio, tea -making facilities and a fridge provided.
There was a choice of continental or cooked breakfast in pleasant surroundings.
As a lone traveller I found it helpful to be able to heat a ready meal in the kitchen/dining room in the evening. There is also a lounge with sofas, computer and large TV for your use.
The only downside was the walk to the station along the main road which was half an hour, and the town centre attractions 40 minutes. There may be a short cut once the new development is completed or a shortcut using a footbridge over the railway????? There is a bus service No3 which is every 10 mins but two usually arrive together at 20 minute intervals.

“The guest house is spotlessly clean and great value for money for a weekend in Cambridge”
4 of 5 stars Reviewed 11 March 2011

The after hours check-in was very easy and breakfast the next day ample with option of cereals, fruits and yoghurt and full English cooked breakfast.
The staff were extremely pleasant and accommodating. I have no hesitation in recommending the place.
While not in the heart of Cambridge, believe the location is not as remote as some reviewers have commented.

“An absolutely delightful and clean Hotel”
5 of 5 stars Reviewed 27 September 2010

I cannot understand some of the bad reviews here. This is a wonderful Hotel!My parents stayed here for 5 days recently and loved it. Their room was immaculately clean, clean white towels, clean bathroom. Tea/Coffee facilities and a fridge for convenience. Freshly cooked breakfast every morning. What more could you want. very polite and friendly owners was the icing on the cake. Would thoroughly recommend this Hotel and will ensure all visitors and relatives stay in this establishment in future. You won't be dissapointed

“OK service and bed, but noisy and overprized”
3 of 5 stars Reviewed 20 June 2010

+ Bed had a good mattress, but a little small for two.

+ Location is so/so: B&B is not too far away from the city center, only 15 min with the bus; on Sunday, however, the bus doesn't go that often.

+ Breakfast was good.

- Our room was next to the kitchen on the ground floor; we were woken up involuntarily at 7.30 on Sunday due to the noise. This makes the prize 75 GBP for a double room with shared facilities even for Cambridge just too high.

I wonder how they got 4 stars.
