Don't be fooled by the way it looks from the outside.
Pros:

It's a wonderful place, a three-star hotel. Comfortable rooms. Nice bathroom. The staff was very helpful and prompt, including Rowan at the front desk, Lina and Ebro? with room service and breakfast. The main advantage of the hotel was the free parking spot reasonably close to the center of the town. Breakfast was delicious. It was served, therefore it was fresh. Sufficient in variety and quantity.

Cons:

The TV wasn't working properly. You could not find any channels. The remote kept asking to log into Netflix.

Great stay
Pros:

Location for my needs, opposite Cambridge Botanical Gardens. Close to the station and centre of Cambridge. Hotel
Car parking.

Cons:

The building work opposite, noisy if your room is on the front (not the hotel's fault). Once completed it will be quieter.

Good place to stay, close to the railway station and city center
Pros:

Great location, one block away from railway station and walking distance from the city center. Friendly and helpful staff.

Cons:

No air conditioner in the room - open window helps, but then external noise might be an issue.

For just the one night it was ok
Pros:

Receptionist pleasant, clean room.

Cons:

Television not working in our room. It was cramped but we did appreciate it was good value. Breakfast although included was pretty poor. The full English was lacking sadly. Hard mushrooms , tasteless tomatoes !

Hotel non turistico
Pros:

Ottima colazione, sia continentale, sia full english. Ottimo il parcheggio all'interno della struttura. Staff molto attento alle esigenze del cliente.

Cons:

Stanza troppo rumorosa, arredamento vecchio. La struttura non è nella zona centrale e per raggiungere il centro a piedi ci vuole una lunga passeggiata.

Great place to stay, very convenient location and lovely staff.
Pros:

Great location, really close to both town and the fantastic Mill Road, and just across the road from the gorgeous botanic gardens.
Staff were great, really helpful on reception with lots of great ideas of places to visit and things to see.

Cons:

Room was on the small side, but fine for the price and the facilites were great.
