Didn't even get out of the car, outside just full off crack heads, absolutely filthy car park over grown. Just a horrible place. My work lads refused to stay and when I requested a partial refund the message was not very pleasant

"It is very unlikely that we would stay in the same property should we return to Cambridge."

5.0

It did the job of somewhere to sleep and shower but little more.

When we arrived there was garden furniture and debris strewn all over the parking area at the front of the house where we wanted to park, plus slabs of concrete in the way of the front door. I had to move everything. It was also the first place that I have ever stayed in that had no loo roll in the en-suite toilet.
