6/10 Good

The room was kinda small, bed was comfortable and clean, window view was awful in our room, bathroom had functional facilities but no lock and had noticeable water damage around wooden doorways and trimming. Overall, an average experience. Perfect for easy access to Cambridge and low to average hotel expectations.

The previous negative reviews are all plausible. I booked at the last minute so curious to see how bad it was. I received the door codes message ok although I never received the pre booking email mentioned by others. The room seemed ok and I had a ground floor room at the front with big bay window. But no power. But shower was hot. I knew I was going to be there for 10 hours tops so I lived with it. As expect, any calls for assistance remain unanswered. Yet yo see if I will be slugged a spurious 50 pound extra charge.

Room 10 to avoid

Pros first: The room was clean and had an amazing number of power outlets and lights. The folding desk was nice too. Shower worked well. Cons: The room feels unfinished, or at the minimum poorly designed. The biggest issue is that the bathroom contains a very loud extractor fan which can still clearly be heard when the door is closed. There is no way to turn off this fan and it is on 24 hours a day. Even worse, the fan is not beefy enough to do much in the way of ventilating the shower cubby/ room so the room quickly becomes damp. Sucks all around! Other issues: * pillows are garbage * no mirror above washbasin, instead it is near the door below a shelf? * The "automated" checkin system did not work at all and so had to do this process with a staff member who was helpful but talked in a barely audiable mumble.

No staff on site for check in, had to stand outside and scan a qr code to whatsapp a team who were slow to respond. Room was ok but basic, supplied 1 small hand towel and no extra toilet paper. Room had an AC unit with a big hole in the wall vent, but heating did not work and room was freezing

+good mattress - bad insulation (you could hear the neighbours talking very clearly) - construction site in the hallway - no reception - no room service - parts of the room smelled like at granny‘s house

The staff was reluctant to provide a satisfactory positive experience. I had to repeatedly request the provision of toiletry amenities, but the service was poorly handled. No response.

2/10 Poor

I arrived and someone was already in my room, after them being told their room wasn't ready and being put into ours. We were then told that we could go into another room and the room had not even been cleaned. The window also didn’t shut and the door handle had fallen off the window so was very cold thought the night. Will not be returning
The window stuck open because the door handle fell off

2/10 Poor

The property is run virtually staffless. The is no reception, requests for replenishing towels, toilet roll and toiletries by WhatsApp were ignored. They changed key codes for the bedroom without notification which meant making phone calls just to enter the room. Would not recommend to anyone. It seems more like a student hostel than a hotel. Requests for parking instructions were also ignored meaning we parked in the station carpark at considerable expense.

The room definitely needed a clean, the walls were dirty, the floor was greasy, the shower hadn’t been cleaned. The sheets also did not fit properly, I asked for a replacement but they didn’t have one that for. I did not receive a check in code, I had to reach out and ask for it.

small but modern, clean and tidy. Checkin issues.

small but modern rooms in a new place, very close to the station. Downsides were that checkin app doesnt really work with hotels.com or expedia so I couldnt get in touch with them until I arrived. And the wifi signal is terrible, needs more bandwidth. But nice people, once you finally get a hold of them.

2/10 Poor

I made a mistake when booking and didn’t change dates so it booked for the next day and then I couldn’t move or cancel because of cancellation policy. However it was a mistake and I've tried to correct right away calling the Hotel immediately and many times after and nobody ever answered. Tried to send messages in hotel website and nobody ever replied. Tried to send message via hotels.com and it wasn’t even possible - error message. Hotels.com customer service tried to reach the hotel and couldn’t. This never happened to me before with other hotels and I am really disappointed.

A good place for overnight stay

It was just an overnight stay but comfortable and homey. Small luggage doesn't fit in the locker and have to carry it with our tours instead.
