it´s very close to the train station. good facilities, very clean.
Ingrid Sofia, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

Great place for a good value stay. Beds not comfortable and room really basic and tired looking but couldn’t really expect more for the price. Staff very friendly and helpful.
Louise, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Good location within walking distance of the train station and bus station stop. Staff is friendly and informative.
Way Han, 2-night trip

Summer stay
Cannot fault the cleanliness, the staff, the room (although smaller than expected for 4 people). The only complaint we had was the heat in the room that built up during the day and the room did not cool down enough at night, making the nights too warm and even sweaty.
Margaret, 2-night trip

Reasonable, clean. Large kitchen. Friendly staff.

The place is wonderful for a stay. But the room was really warm. The food establishment was good and quite convenient. The hostel was a Good location as well.

Silvia, 2-night trip

8/10 Very good

The location was very good. It was close to the train station and in an area with plenty of food options. It was also only a short walk to the historic college area. There is a locker provided in the rooms but you must provide your own lock.
Erin, 2-night trip

6/10 Good

The staff were very friendly. And room were quiet. The only thing that is not satisfactory is the bed is very small, and no curtains around the bed without privacy, no USB outlet for charging, needs UK adapter, and for tall people the lower bed can not sit up without hitting the top bunker. Bathroom and toilet room very clean yet extremely small.
Yiqing, 1-night trip

8/10 Very good

Correct
Good for the price. Every rooms are small, including toilets and shared kitchen. Rooms are too hot but clean and beds confortable. Hostel is well located near the station.

Back packers gem.
Top value for money, fab position, great staff, friendly most basic accommodation, nice to have kitchen and laundry. but don’t forget your ear plugs, face mask, and if you need a soft bed pack a topper. But a bit of a gem really.
Carolyn, 1-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great value for money
Really high value for money if one expects a place with a cozy atmosphere, clean and modern facilities, kind staff and in a great, quiet location just a short walk from the train station and the center. If anything, the heater in the lounge wasn't working and so it was a bit too cold to sit in that room, while one of the shared showers had an issue with the drain so water was everywhere. Still, would pick this place without hesitance next time I visit Cambridge!
2-night trip

10/10 Exceptional

Great common areas, including a highly functional kitchen (although you'll need pocket knives) and a quiet living room and courtyard. Good secure bike storage. Laundry is cheaper than actual laundromats. The cleaning staff are incredibly hard working and their efforts are impressive to see. Cambridge is small, so it's a short walk or bike to most places.
Vincent, 6-night trip

8/10 Very good

I enjoyed my stay here, even if it was just for a night. For my first stay in a Cambridge hostel, it was an unexpectedly pleasant experience. Rooms were clean and had everything I needed. I’m not too picky and the size of the bed was just right for me, but maybe someone taller might have found it less comfortable. They also have a self-catering kitchen for those who prefer to make their own meals (definitely cheaper), and the kitchen was well equipped. I didn’t get to try the breakfast opinion, maybe next time when I come round. I’ll highlight some other things; - Super friendly staff and extremely helpful. I would like to commend the lady receptionist who assisted me in printing documents last minute. She was a real life saver. - They also have a baggage room where you can keep your belongings even if you’re checking out or whilst your room is being prepared. So, I felt quite safe leaving my things there. - The area around seems nice and there are various restaurants nearby. Overall, would definitely come again. Good value for money.

Lo que más me gustó fue que las camas eran muy cómodas, la disponibilidad de una cocina completa limpia y la buena predisposición de todo el personal. Lo que menos me gustó fue el tamaño de la habitación, su proximidad a los baños hacia que fuera muy ruidosa y que no incluyera el desayuno el precio.

Hostel olarak daha özel bir uyuma kabini beklentim vardı ancak açık ranza sistemi çok konforlu ve rahat hissettirmiyor ve de müşteri portföyü hep ergen gençler olduğu için çok sesli gürültülü bir ortam var dı
