The location is very good. It has been 35 yrs since i came to Cambridge(I had been living in Cambridge for 1 year in 1991). It was a kind of tracking a memory trip for me. This hotel is comfortable and cozy.

Was lucky enough to get parking - which was a surprise as I had been told there was none so wasted a bit of money on a public car park for a while beforehand. Would be really nice to be able book a spot in advance. Room was clean and comfortable. Staff friendly. Didn’t pay for the continental breakfast as wanted a full breakfast so ate elsewhere.
