This is a nice hotel that benefits from an onsite Italian restaurant which serves good food. The hotel is somewhat dated but for some this will add to it's charm. The staff are very helpful and knowledgeable of the area. The hotel benefits from being on a good bus route.

Even though my room was on the ground floor and by the main road, it was quiet and peaceful. Onsite restaurant was really good value and the food was of good quality. Very good location and access to the local area.

The room is clean, however the wall is very thin, and when we checked in, there is leaking in the bathroom and lack of hot water, we could barely enjoy the jacuzzi. Location is not bad, about 15m walk from the train station and in a very residential area.

Your bathtub/shower is extremely dangerous as it has an odd protruding section that requires one to take a shower in an odd position. And your plastic tub mats do not have suction cups that keep them sturdy. I slipped and feel twice when the traction mat failed to do its job.

The room itself was fine, everything needed to be comfortable but it was so noisy for several hours each evening and around 10 pm there was noise of furniture moving or similar from the room or area above - made it quite hard to rest or sleep

Smelly bathroom

The smell in the bathroom was suffocating and made it unusable. It smelt like gone off cabbage, must be a sewer issue. I closed off the bathroom and sprayed the room with perfume to mask the smell so I could sleep. The man at the front desk was lovely and bed comfortable

The room I was in was a bit dated and right next to the back room of the kitchen, but they closed down at 10:00 pm, so it was more of an annoyance. The bed was ok, but didn’t find super comfortable. The staff were pretty good and helpful. There were a lot of food options around and a bus right outside to get into Cambridge, but you can walk, or bike too.

Decent for 3 star but on hot days, keeping the window open is necessary, and then you hear all the traffic noises from the busy road. Breakfast was good. Pizzaria looks good.. reception is not 24 hrs.
