    unique compact bathroom experience enhances stay, clean common areas get thumbs up for comfort

    A clean, well-maintained space with quick responsive service and convenient keyless entry. Proximity to transportation made everything smoother during my travels.

    Needs improvement
    5.0

    The automated entry system is a nice touch, making access seamless and eliminating the hassle of key exchanges. The high-quality bed brought me a good night's sleep, and the proximity to transport options is definitely a plus.

    The walls are thinner than a Wookiee's patience. you can hear everything from snoring to door slams like they're in the same room. The bathroom has a ridiculous amount of damp patches and the layout feels cramped. I encountered quite a few issues with inconsistent hot water availability, which could leave you trying to figure out whether you'll get blasted with steam or ice water. Plus, forget the bottled water—they've got none in the room, and the kettle access is awkward at best. Seems like some maintenance is overdue because old fixtures and poor room ventilation make you wonder how often they check anything around here.

    lack of staff

    The pros, the cons, and everything between

    Clean and comfortable stay with a well-maintained room. The automated entry codes provided seamless access without staff interaction, making it truly hassle-free!

    Though inconvenient, I found the noise from adjacent rooms quite noticeable at times, impacting comfort levels during my stay.

    lovely decor
    comfortable bed
    cozy amenities
    compact bathroom
    noise disturbances

    The room had a lovely aesthetic, especially the charming decor. The bed provided a comfortable sleep, which I appreciated after long days exploring Cambridge. I enjoyed the generous selection of teas and coffees available, making it feel cozy. Proximity to the train station was a major plus. It made my travel seamless. The bathroom, however, was quite compact. This might not be suitable for taller guests. I also found the water pressure inconsistent, which made showering less enjoyable. There were some noise disturbances from adjacent rooms, impacting the overall comfort level. the stairs were narrow, adding a bit of hassle with luggage. While my experience was pleasant, a little more attention to these details could enhance future stays.

    comfortable beds
    easy access
    clean bathroom
    compact bathroom
    luggage storage issue

    The stay was quite enjoyable, especially with the easy access to the train station and nearby bus routes. I appreciated the comfortable beds, which made for a good night's sleep after exploring the city. Plus, being able to walk to the Botanic Garden in just a short time was a real highlight of the trip. I did find the bathroom on the smaller side, and getting dressed in such a compact space was a bit challenging.

    shower area

    The stay was quite lovely. clean rooms and a responsive owner. The location is perfect for rail travelers, making it easy to explore the city. Just needed a tad more comfort in the shower area.

    Shower area's tight space needs improvement.

    Recommended for solo travelers

    This is a clean and well-maintained spot, the common areas were really excellent and I got quick responses on the keyless entry issue,, it was like I had my own personal tech support. Plus, the close proximity to the station was a lifesaver for catching trains and not dealing with a lot of hassle.

    It wasn’t exactly cheap, but the quality made it acceptable.
