everything was great. As this is a pub on a saturday night a band plays in the pub downstairs. We were fine with that. Very reasonable food prices. Very good selection of shower bottles and coffee and tea with biscuits,jellybeans,and mints. Great value centre of cambridge is 15 min walk along one road.

We had a great stay here at the weekend. We were only there one night as we had a wedding to attend nearby. The staff are brilliant, so helpful and friendly even let us check-in early. Room was perfect. Car parking so easy. Shame we couldn’t have spent longer there. Would definitely use again if in Cambridge.

A lovely stay, the room and linen smelt fresh and clean. Thanks for the toiletries and treats with the tea/coffee/hot choc. Having a fan in the room was fabulous as we needed to keep the windows closed to limit the traffic noise. Friendly staff and very accommodating with parking allowance on our check-out day. Thank you, we will return. 👍
