Great

Had a great stay in a private room at this hostel. There are sinks inside the bunk rooms. Toilets and showers are shared, but not inaccessible and rather close by. Anticipate a 20 minute walk if you arrive by National Express coach.

Amazing
Posted on Oct 17, 2024
Very clean amenities and in close proximity to the train station. Breakfast can be purchased at a reasonable price and there is also a kitchen available if you want to make your own food. As for drawbacks, I’d say the bunk beds (especially the upper bunk) tend to creak a fair bit, and there was no water for several hours in the morning, making it very inconvenient to go to the bathroom or wash up. The bedside lamps are also too bright. Perhaps dim yellow ones would be better. All being said, it was still a nice stay.

A satisfactory stay in this hotel. About 20 mins walking distance to city areas and bus services/duration were not worth waiting for. Location of hotel is ok for the amount paid, but cleanliness was not very good. Many of the cups were left with yellow stains when you are preparing for breakfast. Water pressure was not as strong in shower room and drain scupper was partly clogged and not rectified even after raising same to the reception. Good full kitchen facilities were provided. An open-roof toiler was noted on the ground floor, wondering how to use with ease in emergency.

Umm.... everything is on average. However, for the 4 bedrooms I booked, seems a bit small and not very enough space to open a few large suitcases at the same time, or if so, cannot walk around. But actually, we should accept it because hostel is like that for true.

I like this hostel very much, nice location, friendly and helpful staff. Last night(27/03) I checked in, a young man working in the reception show me to my room and the kitchen etc. Sorry I didn't know his name, I really appreciate what he did to me. Thank you so much. The best experience in Cambridge.

The staff are superbly great and very helpful. Just love the place. They’ve got breakfast, lunch and dinner. You can even cook your own thing. The place so peaceful and lovely. Near the train station, you can walk to the city centre.
