Liked: Key pad entry made access at all times of the day very straightforward. Loved the quirky mirrors! Great to be able to open the windows for fresh air. Cleaner was so cheerful and helpful.

Disliked: Minor niggle - the Triple room was only supplied with towels,toiletries and breakfast items, for two people.

Liked: The room was clean and tidy and the door code system of check in worked well for our purposes, as we weren't sure when we were going to arrive and went out in the evening, only returning at around 2 a.m. Access to three bathrooms and a fully equiped kitchen were handy as well.

Disliked: It really is a great push to call this a bed AND breakfast, as a few mini packs of cereal, jam, UHT and orange juice don't really qualify as a continental breakfast, but the room was really cheap and available at short notice, so can't really complain!

Liked: None, escept the location, it's near the train station, and the carpet, it looks nice.

Disliked: room size, staff's attitude, the dirty wall, the old windows, bad shower room, and the most important thing is you lied on your website about the payment.

11 April 2010 Customer would recommend this property

Liked: Bizarre place, no contact with staff whatsoever. They offer a pick up service, but don't answer the phone number they have provided, it is a bit of a hike out of town so you need to get a bus or taxi there. There is no signage out the front, just a big spray painted 32 on the wall.When we arrived there was a note saying to ring a different phone number on the door, you ring and get given to code to get inside. It isn't a homely B&B, it's just a normal Even though we booked for three people, we only had 2 towels and breakfast for 2. It is not really a bed and breakfast i might add, the breakfast consists of a little box of cornflakes and some pre cooked toasty biscuit. My last gripe is the bathroom, there is a giant window along the bath/shower which has regular, not frosted glass, and a curtain that is a hell of a lot smaller than the window, so the neighbours can see ALL of you whilst you are showering!But enough of the bad points, for a 3 bed room, which is a nice, clean comfortable room, it is the cheapest in Cambridge, if you are a budget traveller it suits well. We enjoyed it, it gave us lots of stories to tell our friends.

Liked: We really enjoyed our stay at this B & B. Unfortunately, we arrived later than we had expected and told the staff, so as we were late we were driven at another place (no far) that was really good. The staff was really extremely kind and nice. We recomend this to everybody!
