Atmospheric base for exploring Cambridge.
Pros:

Staying in university halls added to the experience of Cambridge. Plus lovely grounds, helpful staff, and convenient location.
Breakfast excellent.

Cons:

Wouldn't book a shared showerroom again - superclean, no inconvenience, but surprised no washbasin in the bedroom.

This was a can’t-miss opportunity to stay in a Cambridge colleg and breakfast with students and faculty, but insanely hi
Pros:

Location, breakfast(!), view on the courtyard, living like a student…

Cons:

Shower was like a pressure washer (seriously), challenging with a car for both luggage drop-off and reasonable parking rates.

Yıldız sız YILDIZ
Pros:

Çok sade ve temiz bir otel idi, oda da balkon olması ve açılabilir kapısının olması çok ferahlatıcı idi, helal like konusu biraz sıkıntı idi ama çeşiti bol olması kahvaltı için yeterli idi

Cons:

Banyodaki su basıncı aşırı fazla idi ve ayarlanmıyordu, o kadarki fıskiye yerinde durmuyordu

Pros:

Our stay was amazing. To stay in the college grounds seemed a real privilege. The rooms were wonderful and shared bathrooms on the corridor were very clean. Staff were very friendly and helpful. Located in the heart of everything. We particularly loved the bar and sitting on deck chairs in the gardens.

Cons:

Nothing
