This a great place to stay for a solo traveller, inside one the historic Cambridge colleges that is otherwise closed to visitors. Shared bathroom / shower facilities are very clearly explained at booking. Effortless check in procedure.

Very convenient location snd spacious room. Rather a lot of stairs (4 flights to my room including stairs to the bed on a mezzanine) next time in would request a room on a lower floor. No wifi but I had my phone. Definitely worth it for the price and location.

A very reasonably priced accommodation for central Cambridge. The rooms were functional (being student accommodation essentially) but perfectly clean and reasonable. There is no car parking, but staff allowed me to leave my motorbike within the grounds which was very much appreciated. The breakfast was excellent.

Excellent Value for Money. Cooked breakfast was great value. College is historic , founded by Margaret Beaufort , mother of Henry VII. Rooms are student rooms, so don’t expect four star hotel rooms. A really interesting place to stay for a couple of nights.
