Convenient location and comfortable room . However we booked intending to get a double room - the confirmation said Standard room but did not show bed option - we arrived and were told it was a twin. The booking confirmation should have made clear the option.

Good value near Cambridge hotel

Nice modern and well maintained hotel in Camborne, just a few miles from Cambridge, and close to the main E-W road. Well laid out compact room, free WiFi and parking. Very clean and comfortable. Excellent bed. 24 HR reception and bar. Cooked breakfast included, but at 9am they were struggling to keep up. No coffee in the machines, no hash browns, tables not cleared, short of cutlery and mugs. This was the only negative, and despite this the breakfast was decent. Star are friendly and professional, and despite my reservations re breakfast service I would definitely recommend this as good value.

The room was tiny for 3 persons. Breakfast is very US style, quality of food is very poor. The coffee is not drinkable. In overall the hotel is suitable only for business people, who get used to such standarts, but not for families.
