    If you want to experience the night life in the town area, this may not be a right place unless you are willing to take a taxi or uber back to the hotel at night.

    just walk less than 1 minutes from the train station!! and there are a few public bus stops for bus heading to the center!

    Can be a little noisy at night and the showers are weaker than expected, but these are minor quibbles.

    Lovely stay at a very reasonable price in this wonderful little hotel. Brilliant rooms, comfortable beds. Wonderful facilities for luggage storage and lovely breakfast. Staff were pleasant and helpful.

    If you have a car, as we did, parking is expensive over the road; 12 hours for 15.50£. We needed 24 hours. Hotel has discounted parking but it was a 5 minute drive and 10 minute walk away.

    The hotel is in a great location. The rooms are well appointed and beds comfortable. Ours was quite a distance from the lift but ok. The lounge and chill out areas are great and there’s live music on a Friday night. Happy hour between 5-7 as well. Good restaurant next door with excellent vegan options and a Sainsbury’s a few steps away. On site cafe also very good. 20 minute walk to the historic centre. Staff were all very pleasant and accomodating. Surprisingly great hotel vibe.

    No one explained how to use the lifts ! Had to be shown by other guests. You have to use your room key to work the lift. We thought we were stuck as the lift doors would not open. Otherwise, all good

    Very comfortable beds in our twin room. Excellent facilities. Toiletries and tea/coffee making facilities included. Staff all very helpful and friendly. Good selection of food for breakfast. Happy friendly atmosphere in hotel. Good location near station and bus or walk into town.

    The shower in the room is a problem. I have mobility issues, my wife does not. However, we shared the same issues. The step up is not ideal neither is the slight lip on the door frame when leaving. The main issue is that the whole floor surface is very slippy, even more so when wet. If you have mobility/balance as issues as I do it makes it very dangerous, even if you put a mat or towel down that slips too. Lovely breakfast but what was disappointing was the staff. Very slow in clearing tables, and when they did they took the plates & cutlery but didn't clean the table of rubbish, crumbs & spills. In fact everything they did was at a slow pace, half heartedly so too. I don't recall seeing such a demotivated & demoralised group of people in a work environment. Constantly wandering around aimlessly whilst checking their mobiles is not a good look when tables need clearing & cleaning. Not them all, but most of them. It wouldn't put me off staying again for a short break despite these issues but I would have to consider other option first

    Great location, comfortable, clean room, lovely breajfast and great value for money

    Really nice newly built hotel. If this one in Cambridge is similar to other Ibis properties, then I would be encouraged to stay in this chain's recently built hotels. They seems to be a significant step up in class and comfort from those I stayed in some 20 years ago.
