A good hotel that needs some money spent on room refreshes; furnishings and surfaces are all scratched, tired and worn out. Breakfast was also lovely but hardly anything available (no eggs, fruits, beans or mushrooms) - this was sad given it was a Saturday and it was busy but lots of empty tables. .

Overall hotel was good. All staff are friendly and courteous, waiters couldn’t do enough for us. Breakfast was very good. Room was reasonable, in my opinion bed could have been more modern and comfortable and room lighting was inadequate.

Loved everything about it. Excellent, clean hotel right next to Cambridge North station. My favourite part about it was the large UHD TV in the room that allowed me to cast my Prime and Netflix content.
