Good room and new hotel in great condition. Parking is a large train station parking lot next door which is ok but you may have to contend with park and ride people. Small supermarket across the street

Amazing new comfortable hotel, with great pool and gym amenities. You have to pay for parking which they don’t mention and the app they want you to down load to pay for parking isn’t the won you use, it’s pay by parking one. Lack of communication with reception was frustrating

Excellent location and very competitive price for the area. Helpful and polite staff. Despite proximity to rsilway, very quiet and calm atmosphere. Restaurant has good menu choices. Pool and fitness facility. Checkout is relatively late.

A normal hotel
It is alright value for money. Parking is a pain and expensive, you are actually using paid train station parking next to hotel and it can be a long walk to haul the suitcase.

Really nice hotel in a good location to get in and out of the city. Hotel was clean and inviting only observation is that as they allow dogs to stay in rooms there probably needs to be a slightly more rigourous cleaning regime (or potentially different cleaning equipment to get the hair out of carpets etc.)

Hotel itself was nice but had a number of issues, gym changing area was very dirty, towels everywhere and only few lockers, some were broken. Worst experience iv ever had at a hotel with the staff. No friendly greeting, a smile was to much to ask. I heard one of the staff arguing with a guest around breakfast area in front of all the other guest, very unprofessional. Later on the day I had a similar issue with another staff at front desk arguing with me, no intention of coming to an agreement but rather argue in front of all the other guest

Lovely hotel, great facilities and good transport links into Cambridge centre. Alternatively there is a lovely river path into town if you don't mind a 45-60 min walk.
