Very comfortable bed and temperature good. Good pillows and duvet. Plenty of space. Minor points that bedside cabinet was at end of bed so no light to get up in night. Used chair at bedside instead and torch on mobile phone. Not sure whether paper bath mat was intended to be used in shower or outside but it did get very wet from shower when used at basin so not much use! I would book again as it was a lovely room overlooking grassy area and big old tree.

Not bad at all. We stayed for two nights to allow us sufficient time for a decent visit to the Fitzwilliam museum and the city center in general. Friendly staff. The accommodation is adequate with two single beds, a kettle, tea and coffee in the room. The shower/toilet is pretty small. The kitchens had a microwave, toaster, oven and a larger kettle but nothing else in the way of utensils, plates etc, so be warned if you plan to cook anything. .

Stay was pleasant. Room is as per a student dormitory, acceptable and very good for the price. Toilet probably was a let down, some how always damp. But otherwise no complaints. Comes with breakfast at the halls which is your typical British breakfast. The stay is opportunistic, only available between terms.

Everything was perfect. Room was clean and well equipped. Gardens beautiful. Breakfast had plenty of choice. Staff lovely too. Would definitely stay again. Thank you for having us.

Issue with tap on arrival. Quickly dealt with by moving to another room. All staff extremely courteous and food and drink very good value for money. Beautiful gardens.

Anon

Comfy room, decent breakfast and, as an extra bonus, allowed to leave the car parked at the college for the day after checking out in the morning.

The building and room was really lovely and comfortable, the breakfast was very good too. Lots to choose from.

Everything fine. A little way out of central Cambridge . S lot of international school children in College.

Anon

The room was a little too warm for me at night; otherwise I very much enjoyed my stay
