I especially liked the friendliness and help the host was offering, in a pro-active approach For me the most important was that it is at walking distance of the Addenbrooke's Hospital

I liked it very much, although if I need to mention something that you need to be of aware is that if you have noisy attendants. you will hear that, but that is also in every hotel.

The room was neat and tidy with nicely (wider than hotels) opening windows. No complaints. Just be clear that you can read the wi-fi password. Comfortable bed. Shower/toilet for guests down the stairs. Easy free parking on the drive or in the neighbourhood. Lovely breakfast. Key for back entrance for easy coming and going. Shoes off, please.

Well, no en-suite (but I expected that). Facilities good. Couldn’t figure the TV aerial connection, but then again didn’t ask (and the lady was very approachable). I’m a Radio 4 man anyway.

Cleanliness; warm welcome. Good selection at breakfast and the fact that the chilled items were kept in a small fridge in the breakfast room.

Very difficult to find in the dark due to road layout and the fact that most house numbers were difficult to see from the road. A minor quibble: having been charged hotel prices, I expected to find basic toiletries in the room. Instead, I had to search through a basket of random leftovers in the shared shower room.

Super friendly hostess. Room was clean, comfortable and quiet. Nice greeting from the resident cat!

I didn't flag up that I am lactose intolerant when I booked, so it's on me really. So, while the breakfast options were fine, I couldn't eat most of it! If I travel again, I will bring my own!

I loved the friendly accommodating atmosphere and the efforts made to solve any of my problems and they took on my feedback and were very communicative. They were very supportive of my dietary needs and allowed me to order takeaways and eat them and store the excess food.

I had some initial problems with the Wi-Fi which is why I have not rated it as excellent. Once the problem was identified they supported me to solve the problem by switching the connection point. I would have liked a more varied breakfast but what was provided was ample for the short term I was there but could get repetitive as I eat a plant based diet, some yoghurts both vegan and dairy would be nice.

The host was extremely welcoming and kind. Everything was clean and tidy, available drinks in the dining room. Bread selection was decent for breakfast but there was cereal and oatmeal which I didn’t have but seemed better than the bread.

Homely, welcoming, very clean, comfortable, good breakfast. A short walk from Addenbrooke’s hospital, this place was an oasis in the difficulties of my son being in hospital.

Great for Addenbrookes hospital - host very attentive - b/fast adequate / some protein in the continental options would have been good.

Wifi not great - TV slow to respond. Room cramped though adequate enough for our 1 night stay.

Ruth was an amazing host and a chance to stay in a British neighborhood

I was scared I wouldn’t find my way back because my American Wi-Fi didn’t work (my fault)
