Guest Reviews

• Pedro (8/5): -
• Corentin (8/5): - Personnel très bavard et accueillant, bonne situation proche du centre. A 30 minutes à pieds du Newton institute avec un arrêt de bus au pieds. L’hôtel le moins cher de Cambridge petit déjeuner compris. Chambre un peu petite, wc et douche sur le palier.
• Wienecke (10/5): - Ursprünglich hatten wir eine Unterkunft bei Home2home gebucht, diese wurde wegen eines defekten Wassboilers - was ja passieren kann, worüber wir uns auch nicht beschwert hätten - 5 Minuten (!) vorm Einchecken abgesagt. Auf die Anfrage von uns, dass wir definitiv für die Nacht eine Unterkunft brauchen, wurde mit: tut uns leid, wir haben nichts reagiert. Trotz Nachfrage von uns, kam nur, wir sollten eine Stornierungsanfrage stellen, damit wir die bereits bezahlte Gebühr vollständig erstattet bekämen. Also mussten wir ganz spontan eine neue Unterkunft für eine Nacht suchen, dabei fanden wir das Carlton House. Um es ganz kurz zu machen: selbst Schuld, wer da nicht hinfährt!!!! Super Gastgeber, super Unterkunft! Restaurants, Läden, City zu Fuß erreichbar. Einfach eine ganz dicke Empfehlung an alle, die gerne genießen! Das wir nur eine Nacht bleiben konnten, weil unser Reiseplan leider nicht mehr zu ändern war!
• Warren (6/5): Plain yet comfortable - Bed was comfy, quiet enough, pleasant host. Breakfast was a little bland. Nescafe 43 doesn't cut it in the service industry anymore I'm afraid. Room small for what could have been a double room. Double bed OK but add another person and suitcase then things would be very tight.
• Tolga (9/5): -
• Thomas (5/5): Generally a poor experience. - Poor choice for money. Room was dated, only two catering milk cartons. Table needing dusting. Bathroom very crampt. Hot water tap needs adjusting, sprayed me with hot water. Breakfast, poor choice, sparce, v little milk, v amature approach. Parking difficult due to building works, pallets of building materials immediately as you turn into park. no advance warning of this!
• Peters (8/5): -
• Sheila (10/5): -
• Damian (8/5): -
• Martin (7/5): Friendly, clean and convenient. - Friendly and chatty host, excellent location, decent breakfast. N/A
• Marzia (10/5): Feeling at home in Cambridge - We loved the homey feeling and the character of the place. Breakfast conversations with Ciaran were quite fun!
• Belinda (10/5): Warmly welcomed and cared for. - Great location, Ciaran is a very congenial host.
• Nathalie (7/5): -
• Martin (10/5): -
• Ricky (9/5): Fantastic host with everything you need for a fleeting overnight stay - Newly renovated room, very good space and everything we needed for a short overnight stay.
• Tatiana (7/5): -
• Cheryl (9/5): - Location brilliant, host very helpful and friendly, rooms were spotless
• anthony (8/5): -
• Edmund (10/5): -
• Joseph (8/5): We enjoyed our stay in the hotel. The owner was especially attentive and friendly. - The owner was very friendly and welcoming. The hotel was more like a guest house than a hotel that belonged to a big chain so it had a more personal touch. It was a little far from the centre but this was easily resolved by an excellent local taxi service.
• Zeynep (9/5): -
• CHENLAN (7/5): - 房东很热情，亲自准备早餐。被子干净 洗澡水量可以再大些会更舒适，下水道有点堵
• peter (8/5): i would stay there again but in different room Ciaron was a great host ! - tea making facilities and nice and warm room ! room was a little smaller than expected i know i asked for a single room but it was approx 10x7 feet and shared toilet that was tiny !
• Niharika (10/5): -
• Karol (8/5): -
• Leynaert (9/5): Eenvoudig, maar heel leuk en comfortabel verblijf. Zeker voor herhaling vatbaar. - Zeer vriendelijke ontvangst. Zeer comfortabel bed. Heel goede ligging. Lekker ontbijt. Alles was naar verwachting
• Ella (9/5): -
• Mauro (7/5): - Breakfast and the bed size The landlord was funny but a bit unprofessional and the bed and breakfast don't have a sign so I had difficulty finding

• Henry (10/5): Will come back next time - The host was very friendly, the room was very clean, and it felt like home. Nothing
• Jo (7/5): Perfectly enjoyable. 😁 - Perfect location for what we needed. The road was quite noisy, but I’m used to rural living, en-suite was tiny and a few more toiletries would have been ideal.
• Marc (9/5): - Very friendly host, nice rooms.
• Anand (10/5): - Wonderful friendly host, was always available to help and made our stay a delight
• Anand (10/5): -
• Catrina (8/5): Great location, friendly and helpful host, comfortable stay, many thanks. -
• Michael (8/5): Wonderful stay in a very historic city. - Excellent breakfast, Room was nice, excellent location, and the host was great!. The bathroom, while usable, was the smallest I've ever seen (even smaller than a cruise ship bathroom). Also, very small TV, very high up, so difficult to read anything on the screen.
• Sharon (8/5): Welcoming and homely - Super friendly welcome and throughout stay. Very convenient location. Loved the flexibility of access, and a rarity to have such good parking in cambridge.
• ORR (9/5): -
• Federica (5/5): -
• limsy (8/5): - Loved the host, very friendly place. The only downside was the distance to the city - I could see it on the map though so on me to choose a location a bit further.. Other then this, a good stay.

• Paul (10/5): Trip to Cambridge - Great location, room was small but had a King size bed which was comfortable Bathroom was clean Breakfast was good Staff was friendly and helpful Nothing to dislike
• Lucabertolini73 (8/5): -
• Caladenia (8/5): Would go back again - Friendly and helpful Kettle broken but brought hot water for tea Breakfast could have been more varied and self service
• T (4/5): Meh - Lovely host, convenient location, big room and generous tea tray. Needs a serious update. Shower room was tiny. Breakfast disappointing.
• LILY (7/5): -
• Emanuel (9/5): -
• Dymphie (7/5): Prijzig voor te kleine badkamer en de ruimte - Prima lokatie, bushalte voor de deur. Aardige host die ons broodjes meegaf omdat we vroeg zouden vertrekken Piepkleine badkamer Maar 1 theezakje Geen waterflesje Geen ruimte voor de koffers
• Anna (10/5): I spent two weeks there and I will definitely be happy to return in the future. - The extremely friendly and funny landlord takes great care to provide all the comforts during your stay. The ideal location means you can get everywhere on foot, but on the other hand, you still feel like you're living outside the hustle and bustle that characterizes the city center. Everything was ok.
• Alston (6/5): Kieron was charming,very welcoming. - Very basic needs modernising
• Dawei (8/5): Very good -
• Wojciech (8/5): Very good - Very nice facility manager. Perfect location.
• Sandra (5/5): Very old fashioned. - The bed was comfy Room very cramped. Difficult to get round. Mouldy net curtains. No hooks for towels. A large towel each and only one hand towel. Radiator rusty. Step into bathroom of about 1 inch, extreme trip hazard. Breakfast was included, however paid 10p per person per day. Odd.
• Rajiv (8/5): Very good - Clean. Basic. Ciaran was very helpful with our young son’s dietary preferences!! Three cheers to him.
• Philip (9/5): Superb - Everything important was very good: clean, comfortable bed, warm welcome
• Zain (10/5): Exceptional -
• Suzanne (8/5): Good value friendly stay. - Great breakfast. Good shower. Clean in all areas. The bedroom was very warm but thankfully there were openable windows in the bedroom and the ensuite. We managed to get one of the property's 3-4 off-road parking spots. Would stay again. Slightly noisy floorboards above our room would be our only complaint.
• Geraldine (10/5): Exceptional - The bed was lovely and comfortable and everything was clean and the staff were very friendly. Nothing.
• Rodel (8/5): Very good -
• Jane (9/5): Very good value B&B. I would stay again if visiting Cambridge in the future. - Breakfast was excellent especially for the price. Fruit, yogurt, choice of cereals, cheeses and meats, boiled egg, toast, pastries tea or coffee and orange juice. I found my stay very relaxed. Room and front door key meant I could come and go when I wanted. I stayed five nights. TV in my room. Also a kettle and tea and coffee provided. A chair and wardrobe with hangers too. Location was great. Number 1 bus from the station to about a ten minute walk away or possible to change buses in the town to a number 2 which stopped right outside. I came by train but there was parking available. I chose to stay in a single room without an en-suite (cheaper) and the facilities were close by and only shared by a couple of other people. I can’t think of anything.
• Heinz (8/5): Very good - Everything clean, good breakfast, very friendly, helpfull and inspirating manager everything like advertised
• Christine (8/5): Very good -
• Martin (10/5): Exceptional - Pleasure to meet Ciaran and chat to him and his wife. Excellent location, especially for a 10min drive to Addenbrookes Hospital, which is why I was in Cambridge. Off road Parking good right outside. Excellent value compared to ridiculous prices elsewhere. No negatives to report whatsoever. I'll be back as I need surgery! Thanks! Nothing not to like
• Ian (7/5): Good for the price - Decent accommodation for the price Decor clean enough if a bit dated. Could do with a hook or two in the bathroom
• Tony (8/5): Very good - Friendly owner. Pillows rather hard.
• Stan (10/5): Exceptional - If I ever need to stay in Cambridge overnight again, I will definitely return.
• Janet (8/5): Very good - The hosts were brilliant as was the location..the room was comfortable. Warm and clean ..breakfast was continental .Cereal. yogurt. Meat .cheese and eggs ..served with tea or coffee.. juice and toast..parking is available at the premises.. Sign on front of premises just states the number of the house (even though it is large) we were looking for a board saying Carlton Lodge..
• Tom (8/5): Very good -
• Mai (10/5): Exceptional - Great location, very clean, facilities as described, comfortable bed, Ciaran was very accommodating and made me feel very welcome.
• Simon (3/5): Seemed a lot of money for what supplied. - Had an early start so didn't have time for breakfast. Very small room. Toilet/shower small

• Jyothi (9/5): Superb -
• Anton (10/5): Excellent value for money and a very nice host - The location is fine, not far from the main Cambridge University buildings. A good vibe of a cosy private house.

• Anita (5/5): Not so good. - Host was very nice. Very helpful friendly chap. Breakfast was good. Unfortunately the room wasn't checked for cleanliness as shower wasn't rinsed or sink. Mould and stains on the walls which made it a musty smell. Only 1 mug for coffee and no glasses for water. There were 2 of us. It was dusty and so owner didn't charge and apologised.
• Gillian (8/5): Very good -
• Pavinee (8/5): Very good -
• Jennifer (5/5): Top marks for hospitality and breakfast selection, but please change the mattress in Room 4! - Friendliness of the proprietor The mattress was very hard and unyielding. I did not sleep well.
