Lovely, friendly and clean
Lovely little pub and really nice room. Couldn’t fault the cleanliness or the service at all. The only thing missing was a full length mirror in the room (we were going to the races!!)

Not great...
The hotel was ok there was no hairdryer or toiletries provided in the room. The breakfast was served in the pub on the sunday but then brought to your room on sunday night for monday morning which was very odd and meant that was not fresh.We left all the fruit as it was warm. The pub shut at 630pm on sunday night which meant there was no food available for residents after this time. The main entrance to the hotel block door is open at all times night and day which felt unsafe.

Nice place for a stopover for 2 nights while visiting the air museum. Decent continental breakfast with pastries, fresh fruit, cheese, ham and selection of cereals. Cooked breakfast was £10.50 per person and looked like a huge plateful of food. Room was huge, clean and bed comfortable. Not sure about the faux leather pillow covers but maybe just not my taste! Area outside window could do with a quick clear up and possibly cut the shrubs back a little to let some light in. However, the lack of light did mean we got a good lie in. Staff were very pleasant, public areas welcoming. All in all, fully recommend. Oh, and prices in bar were not a rip off unlike some places in the centre of Cambridge!

Giving it an average because it served a purpose. The staff were excellent. Very comfortable bed. Breakfast was ok but limited as a continental. Room condition was "well used" and needs some TLC. Lots of cobwebs when I walked in the room. Close to a busy road with noise throughout the night
