"Very convenient location to visit Cambridge. Small room with basic furniture but clean. Breakfast offered several options and staff was very kind. My room was in a concrete block so I missed the atmosphere of living in one of the historical buildings. However, the room was facing one of the inner courtyards and was silent at night. Ensuite bathroom was really very very tiny. Overall, a pleasant experience - well recommended."

"Most importantly, all the staff I met were extremely welcoming and helpful. The room was fresh, clean and comfortable. The breakfast was exceptional. As the newest of the University Colleges, the modern architecture and wonderful grounds payed tribute not only to modernity but also to the grandure of the antiquity of Cambridge University. It was a longer walk to the town centre than advertised nevertheless, I thoroughly enjoyed the walk and this enhanced my stay."
