Nice stay at outskirt of Cambridge
The complimentary breakfast was a nice gesture. Room was decent sized and clean. Location is slightly far away from town but not an issue for us as we had a car.

The walls are very thin and you could hear the sounds from next door. Do ask for rooms facing the back (instead of the car park) as the noise of luggage trolleys and car movements can be disruptive. Good Breakfast spread. Overall, good experience!

Run down interior, poor quality breakfast
The hotel interiors are very well worn and the property is in need of modernisation. Breakfast items weren't replenished quickly enough during a busy service, no bacon :(

Great for weekend away
The room was clean & comfortable. Rooms sound proofing isn’t that great, we heard our neighbours early morning talking on the phone. The breakfast buffet was very busy and the staff struggled to keep dishes topped up. Food was ok but not fantastic. All staff were friendly & helpful. The free parking is great.
