My stay at the hotel was overall pleasant. The location is convenient, being very near the station, but the noise from the nearby railway tracks was a downside. The rooms were cozy and the bed was comfortable, although the wet carpet was a bit off-putting. The service was average, with some improvements needed in their approach. Dining was included in the rate, and the European bread served was a nice touch.

The hotel is conveniently located right next to the railway tracks and the train station, offering a mixed experience. The rooms are spacious and come with different bed options, but be cautious as opting for a bath might lead to a wet carpet situation. In the restaurant, while the dishes are freshly prepared, some items seem overpriced. The service could benefit from a more attentive approach, making the overall stay somewhat mixed in terms of satisfaction.

The hotel is conveniently located right next to the railway tracks, offering easy access to Cambridge by train. The rooms, although lacking a wardrobe or drawers, have a nice bath, but some maintenance issues were noted. The service could be improved with more attentive interactions, while housekeeping and pet amenities are available. The dining experience includes refreshments and being served by the chef, with a complimentary tray missing in the rooms. The location provides good access to the area visited and features quiet surroundings, along with the disadvantage of the train line proximity.
