Cambridge is an expensive town. That said, the price of the room did not reflect the amenities or the size of the room. Basically, the bathroom was so small as to be useless, and the bedroom very poorly lit and felt cluttered.
The hotel is on top of a very cozy pub near Jesus Green, and within a comfortable walk to city centre. The room was clean and relatively quiet (the pub/hotel are located at a big intersection with frequent traffic).
It would be ideal if the room price was closer to 100£, rather than 200£…

OK stay
The accommodation was OK which says it all. Nothing was particularly bad and nothing was exceptional except its location to the river and centre. Parking a nightmare and the bathroom sink is ridiculously small, real trouble turning the shower on

Lovely cosy hotel
Lovely hotel but the emergency exit light in our room (4) was so bright it was difficult to sleep. Couldn’t fault it otherwise but obviously this is an issue restwise
Really pleasant staff and nice location just out of town

Musical visit.
All was good, possibly the best “full English” ever. The bar did close at 22:30which was a bit early for us.

It was very hot in the room, some proper air con rather than a fan would have been welcome. Food was pretty good, more gluten free options would be welcomed. Staff were very pleasant, and the location was excellent (we were staying over night to see a gig at the portland arms!). Tea and coffee making facilities and water in the room was good (some biccies too would be nice). Shower was good too. All in all would recommend. Wish we'd actually booked for 2 nights not just one.

Lovely pub and rooms! Parking was challenging, but otherwise everything was just what we needed!

Didn’t bother
Didn’t check in as the outside of the building looked run down. Not as the pictures on the website suggested. I didn’t bother checking in as I am tired of being constantly let down.
