"unexpectedly poor"

1.0

none

There is musty smell in the apartment. The furniture and fixtures are old. The wardrobe door almost fell down when I opened it. The sound proofing between the apartment and the apartment upstair is poor. We could clearly hear the footsteps of the people lived above when they walked. It was too annoying and disturbing..

"Poor"

3.0

The location of the flat

very disappointed by the general condition of the apartment: out of the four available chairs, 3 were not safe (1 foot was not attached), screw tips were coming out the bedroom door, leaks in the shower, smelled of mold in some cupboards in the kitchen, the fridge was not clean, mold and peeling paint...

"Overall disappointing."

3.0

The property is in a very good location -- only about 10 minutes walk to main Cambridge colleges and museums.

This is a small and dark basement apartment, with a bathroom and shower at the top of a very narrow staircase -- so you have to climb these narrow stairs in the night to use the toilet. The basement also gets condensation and we were advised to operate the dehumidifier. The kitchen was relatively modern, but we arrived to a dishwasher that was not functional, and a number of dirty plates and utensils that the prior renters were obviously not able to clean. To be fair, the owner did send over someone quite quickly to do a repair. More concerning was the fridge. The freezer compartment was completely caked with ice, and we were unable to freeze icepacks etc. The two twin beds were quite hard an uncomfortable. There was a evidence of disrepair everywhere -- peeling paintwork, loose baseboards. The owner was polite and responsive, but overall we wish we had rented somewhere else, even if it meant a longer journey to central Cambridge.

"Very convenient city centre location but no parking at the apartment. Good wi-fi."

5.0

Very good location. Just a few minutes walk from the city centre. Very conveniently located key lockbox. Good wi-fi.

1. No parking at the apartment. Had to park the car at Grand Arcade car park in the city centre. The car park nearest the apartment (Queen Ann Terrace) has no lifts, the stairs smell of stale urine and the parking spaces are very narrow. 2. Steep stairs down to the apartment with low ceiling. 3. Threadbare carpets, especially on the stairs. 4. Very hot in the shower room due to the hot towel rail which we could not switch off. 5. Instructions to work the TV were poor. I could only access BBC iPlayer and channel 4 but I could not get the other channels to work. 6. Basement apartment with very little natural light coming through.

"Centrally located apartment."

7.0

Centrally located. Beds clean and comfortable. Kitchen quite well equipped. Small shower room, but warm. WiFi connection good.

A bit in need of painting and cleaning. The central heating pump was noisy nearly all the time. Steep steps down into the flat. Felt it was a bit overpriced.

"Lovely few days away it great city centre location."

8.0

Location to this property was the real star of the stay. The living area was well laid out with everything required for our stay. Overall it was ideal for our requirements.

The boiler system was loud constantly & took a little getting used to.
