Guest Reviews
- Marwin (9/5): -
- Charlotte (9/5): -
- Alice (7/5): Buono - Posizione molto comoda per girare la città venendo dalla stazione. Camera abbastanza pulita e confortevole. Lenzuola ed asciugamani puliti. Doccia comoda Camera minuscola, veramente minuscola. Letto morbidissimo, si affondava. A parte la doccia, gli spazi erano troppo esigui, talmente stretto che era impossibile muoversi. Può andare bene per due persone con zaino, senza valigie.
- Nicolas (8/5): -
- Natalia (10/5): - La habitación era de princesa total, me encantó. Realmente está un poco apartada del centro
- Pia (10/5): Friendly staff. Pleasant stay. - Clean and comfortable.
- Vitalii (10/5): -
- Joanne (8/5): -
- Debbie (8/5): Great value guest house. - Nice guest house near the train station. Bed was very comfy. Rooms were small but sufficient for one night.
- Lafaye (8/5): -
- Eithne (9/5): -
- Elina (10/5): Geschlafen wie die Könige😆 - Peronal mega freundlich. Hilft auch über SMS schnell falls es fragen gibt. Etwa 25min zu Fuß ins Stadtzentrum.
- Noelene (8/5): Lovely stay in a charming house in a nice area - Such a charming little guest house. The bed was very comfy. Good hot shower with strong pressure. Nice and clean. The bathroom was very small though that’s to be expected in these old and quaint places. We had to move the kettle to a little shelf under the tv to boil as there was no plug on the table. It would be nice to have more than 2 regular teabags. Had to pay extra for parking.
- Jeton (8/5): -
- Laurence (10/5): - Very quiet room, clean, nicely decorated. The owner is charming, very helpful and considerate.
- Daniel (10/5): -
- Harriss (9/5): Excellent value for money. - Close to the centre. Clean and comfortable. A little noisy from other rooms.
- Gary (10/5): -
- Alice (10/5): -
- Colin Oswald (10/5): -
- Jerry (9/5): Excellent Short Stay in Cambridge - Excellent location, clean establishment and excellent communication with the owner. A&B Guest House provides great value for money. Rooms are on the small side but this was not an issue for me. There were no issues for us.
- Sally (10/5): Fantastic stay in Cambridge - A clean and comfortable stay for our family. All of the rooms were wonderful with great coffee in the morning. A super friendly and helpful host. Nothing. It was great.
- Mary (8/5): -
- Tartarashvili (10/5): -
- Serkan (8/5): -
- Brian (10/5): Wonderful quiet guest house set in a lovely suburb near to train station, pubs and town. - There's a free flow coffee/hot chocolate machine, which is so welcome in the morning & late at night; additionally there a small kettle in room if you want to make your own tea On-site parking was great as parking in Cambridge can be quite a challenge; and we are near enough to walk into the main bits of town (20ish mins walk) So happened we were on the loft floor, so having to climb up 3 flight of stairs with our luggage was do-able but a bit of challenge if you hv heavy bags.
- Ian (9/5): -
- Siow (7/5): - Host is friendly and location is excellent. It is unfortunate that there was no hair dryer in the room including shower room notwithstanding that during booking, I vividly remember hair dryer was mentioned. Other than that, we are satisfy with our stay.
- Dave (8/5): A warm welcome, spotless room and very comfy bed. Note private toilet is on the floor above. - A small hand towel in the toilet would have been helpful.
- Gari (9/5): -
- liping (10/5): 服务很好，让我们提前入住了，还给了我们游览建议。房间干净温馨。 -
- Leda Carolina (8/5): - Es un lugar muy bien ubicado, esta cerca de la estación del tren y llegas caminando hasta el centro de la ciudad sin problema. Aunque la habitación era pequeña tenia todo lo necesario. La cama no era cómoda y la ventana daba a la calle; entonces había un poco de ruido. Ya no tienen desayuno, no hay problema, puedes cruzar la calle y desayunar en el YHA
- Matteo (9/5): - Nice and clean guesthouse in Cambridge! Recommended!
- Julia (10/5): - Zvolila som si extra malu izbu takze som nemala velke ocakavania, no vsetko v izbe bolo zabezpecene, krasne, ciste, utulne a postel naozaj velmi pohodlna. Lokalita taktiez velmi dobra, velmi blizko vlakovej stanice a blizko aj do centra mesta, blizko botanickej zahrady aj univerzit. Pani majitelka taktiez velmi mila a snazila sa kazdemu pomoct ak nieco potreboval.
- Emma (8/5): Nice cost guest house in great location - Great location, very easy check in and lovely manager. Rooms on the small side, pillows and matress a little too soft for my liking, but that’s personal preference.
- Melinda (9/5): - Very pretty and smart guest house in a super location walking distance to the train station and city centre. The room was a fair size very clean and nicely decorated. A very small bathroom but a strong shower and long mirror in the room which I appreciate. The bed was comfy but a little lumpy. Other than this nothing it was all good.
- Lucy (8/5): Friendly B & B - Very friendly, clean, good location Booked a single room, not a great deal of room to unpack anything. Despite this, would book again and travel light
- Anna (5/5): Avoid the small room - The location and the manager They keep and rent a small room which should not be allowed to be even proposed as a storage room. You cannot move, wash, sit, breath, nor even watch a pseudo -tv unreachable and not working.
- Elena (10/5): - The host is very friendly, and the room is so cozy, good for one traveller, it's about 25 min walk to the historical centre, and there is a couple of grocery shops nearby No elevator
- Ana (7/5): estadia satisfatória para poucas noites - para uma estadia bem curta, como a nossa, eu diria que o A&B Guest House é uma boa aposta, já que fica em conta a relação preço hotel. não fica propriamente perto do centro da cidade, mas 15 minutos a pé faz-me bastante bem e o caminho até lá é bonito, tornando-o menos difícil. em contrapartida, fica no meio do caminho entre a estação e o centro, o que evitou fazer desvios desnecessários para deixar as malas antes de visitar a cidade. isto porque, o staff foi super atencioso e amigável, autorizando-nos a deixar as malas no hotel sem qualquer problema (e em segurança) antes do check-in. fomos ainda mimados com uma mesinha com diferentes tipos de chá e café, acompanhado com uma chaleira, um biscoito e um pedaço de chocolate, o que foi muito atencioso para chegou de uma viagem cansativa. como aspetos negativos, eu diria que o facto da cama ser tão alta causou alguma preocupação que, durante a noite, havendo algum descuido, algum de nós caísse e se magoasse. para duas pessoas numa só cama, isso pode ser problemático, principalmente se as pessoas em questão se mexerem muito enquanto dormem. outra questão foi o chuveiro. para quem não quer lavar o cabelo e só quer lavar o corpo, torna-se complicado já que o chuveiro era fixo e não era possível pegar nele. além disso, o bebedouro era consideravelmente pequeno para alguém que gosta de fazer skincare e era uma dor de cabeça regular a temperatura da água (no bebedouro apenas, não no chuveiro). para quem tem problemas de mobilidade, talvez este hotel não seja ideal porque, do que me apercebi, não havia qualquer elevador ou acesso facilitado a debilitados.
- John (8/5): Very good value and clean B&B in a good location for the station and for exploring Cambridge. - Very good location and good value. Everywhere was really clean and the room had nice little extra touches like a dressing gown etc. It would have been good to know in advance that the toilet for the room was on another floor!
- Sabine (9/5): -
- Mark (9/5): -
- Annie (8/5): Would stay there again. Good price and clean. Would have felt more comfortable if there was someone on site to check tha - Near to the station. Small room which suited me as a solo traveller and didnt feel I was paying over the odds for a huge room I didnt need. Very clean and comfortable. The entry code system was a bit fiddly. Someone came in as me and someone else were trying to get in so I wasn’t comfortable with this - they sped up the stairs so I couldn’t challenge them and wouldn’t have felt comfortable doing this in any case
- Thomas (8/5): Sehr charmante Gastgeberin mit ausgezeichneten Tipps und gepflegte Unterkunft - Individuelle gepflegte Einrichtung
- Joy (9/5): -
- Gould (6/5): - Cleanliness, location, price
- Susan (8/5): -
- Melany (8/5): -
- Bruno (8/5): -
- Carl (9/5): - Great location, good value for money Nothing
- zanda (8/5): - Easy check-in and manage to grt parked on site Bed was very comfy Room was a little small but served the purpose in that we just need somewhere to sleep. We opulent locate any cups near the coffee machine so didn't have coffee, the tray in the room only had tea sugar and milk, didn't fancy having to go down 3 flights if stairs with our cup to make a coffee so defeats the object of coffee facilities in the room....BUT this a minor moan.
- Sharron (10/5): - Very lovely welcome. Extremely clean room. Have booked again for Dec - our next trip to a show at the Corn Exchange. Highly recommended. Thank you. All good.
- Andrew (10/5): Amazing experience - all was great - clean room, amazing bed and convenient location. all great
- Daisy (10/5): -
- Rustam (9/5): -
- Pradeep (10/5): Nice and cosy place next to station. - Nice, clean, and comfortable place close to the railway station. Staff were very helpful. Great value for money. Rooms are a little cramped.
- YING PENG (7/5): - Well equipped, good aesthetics. The host didn't reply to messages. Also it's a bit weird to have a separate toilet. The shower head is fixed so I couldn't avoid the cold water coming out first. If I am revisiting I will go for the bigger rooms.
- Silvio (9/5): Schöne Unterkunft an guter Lage - Gute Lage. Zweckmässige Einrichtung.
- Ann (9/5): Great place. We’d stay there again - The location was excellent. Our host was very accommodating. The bed was very comfortable. The cleanliness was excellent.
- Venche (7/5): Greit opphold nær togstasjonen! - Bra beliggenhet i forhold til togstasjonen. Rent, god madrass. Hyggelig personale. Badet var utenfor rommet, og det var flere trapper opp dit. Det var ikke optimalt. Rommet var knøttlite.
- Roger (10/5): Great location and facilities with a friendly and welcoming host. - Very convenient location for the station and well presented room and facilities. Good to have water and hot dinks facilities both in the room and by reception. Inga was very welcoming and responsive to both texts and in person, when I popped back after doing the half marathon, to collect my case. I wouldn’t hesitate to rebook if I am doing the race in future years. Nothing
- Roshan (10/5): - Everything about this place, proper ambience and mainly its peaceful vibe I don't have any
- Alexandre (9/5): Ótima opção em Cambridge - Equipe super simpática e atenciosa, quarto limpo e confortável com um ótimo banheiro, boa localização próximo da estação de trem nas um pouco afastado do centro. Para abrir a porta da frente é necessário digitar um código mas a noite é impossível enxergar o teclado, fui salvo pela lanterna do celular.
- Sara (10/5): - It was very clean, cosy and comfortable. We were made to feel most welcome. We would definitely stay there again without hesitation.
- Simon (9/5): One night stop to watch a gig, perfect and great value for money. - Well located for Corn Exchange. Nothing, all good.
- Gili (9/5): Comfortable and quiet, close to city centre, definitely recommend -
- Roshan (10/5): -
- Lynna (9/5): Great stay! - This is a very comfortable, clean, and hospitable guest house. It has everything you need for a comfortable stay. It is located on a quaint Cambridge street. The manager is lovely and accommodating. I will definitely come back again.
- Patricia (8/5): Welcoming, good location, clean. - Good location, near the train station and places of interest in Cambridge. Very clean, good location, warm welcome.
- Gabriele (9/5): -
- Simon (10/5): -
- Emiliana (10/5): - Great location, the place is very nice and clean. The bed was super comfortable and I never thought I could be impressed by linen but how about satin pillowcases. The host is very kind and attentive.
- Diane (9/5): Perfect and decided to stay an extra night - I liked the style of the room. Comfort. Friendliness of the staff. Excellent location. Good facilities, very clean and fresh. Bright and relaxing N/A
- Dan (8/5): -
- Jeanie K (10/5): A really wonderful stay. - It was a great experience, the A&B Guest House Cambridge feels like at nice and sweet home. Moreover, Inga was so kind and friendly, so it made even better the experience. My room was comfortable and illuminated, and I feel good and in calm there. Thank you so much to all the A&B Guest House Cambridge team!!
- Julian (9/5): Lovely weekend in Cambridge. - Well positioned near the station, and the shops and restaurants on Mill Road. Convenient access and on-site parking (additional cost). Main visitor sights and colleges 30 minute walk away. Nice pleasant comfortable room, bright and airy. Host was easily contactable, charming and helpful. Enjoyable stay, would recommend.
- Lesley (9/5): - Clean and comfortable The door entry system was difficult to work maybe clearer instructions might help. We managed Sorry about the phone calls🙂
- Ullate-i-Estanyol (10/5): -
- Pedro (3/5): - The room was extra small, not at all alike what is shown in the website
- Paolo (9/5): -
- Keith (7/5): Comfortable and perfect location for what I needed. Short walk to the main town. - Room was clean and comfortable. Very friendly and helpful staff. Although self check in I arrived a little early and staff were happy to help and allowed me to pay for the parking, etc. Front door code lock a little tricky to understand. I think it talks but couldn’t hear what it says but it worked.
- Miguel (8/5): -
- Sabrina (10/5): Un gradevole soggiorno che spero si potrà ripetere - La pulizia, la posizione
- Joseph (10/5): Excellent location with comfy bed - Convenient, clean and friendly Nothing
- Rebecca (5/5): Nicely presented rooms but security dubious wouldn't advise staying on your own - Didn't get breakfast. Room clean and well presented but smelt of damp I felt the security was very weak - a very easy code to crack to get into an unstaffed guest house. As a lone female traveller I didn't feel safe, so I had to book for my son (who has a college room at Christ's) to stay in the guest house too. An additional expense I wasn't planning on
- Altner (10/5): -
- Monique (8/5): -
- Peter (5/5): - Die Lage Die Zimmergröße
- Daniel (10/5): - Great location Comfy clean and easy communication
- Sara (9/5): -
- Giovanni (10/5): Ottimo - Pulizia ed accoglienza Stanza non molto spaziosa
- George (10/5): - Tea, chocolate and biscuits, although I didn't consume. Both towel and robe available, although I only used one (maybe replace one with those white hotel slippers sandals). Very clean, nice decoration and homely. Welcoming entrance encouraging silence. Clean toilet (5 extra). Clean bedsheets and pillows, clean carpets. In my room (5) the shower head could not be manipulated and since it came from the ceiling I had to first enter the shower, close the door and then turn on the tap so that water doesn't go on the carpet if I were to test the temperature first from a distance. As a result I received an inrush of cold water at first before it turned warm. I hope I'm making sense.
- Gayle (8/5): - Easy to find, period property, small but comfortable room, tea making facilities in room & coffee machine in foyer, cosy bed Tiny shower, creaky floors meant I could hear others moving about- to be expected in an old building
- Sarah (10/5): -
- Ionut (9/5): - O bună alegere pentru o scurtă vizită in Cambridge. Aproape de gara dar si de centru. Camera confortabila, călduroasă, frumos amenajata. Baia e mica. (Personal n-am înțeles robinetul din baie de la chiuveta cu doua baterii, una pentru apa calda una pentru apa rece) . Daca era puțin mai mare ar fi fost de 10/10 Deși totul a decurs in regula, check-in-ul contactless, si toată interacțiunea virtuala nu sunt preferatele mele.
