Lovely host. Good location close to Grafton Centre. Soft bedding; very nice. Small but all needed. No oven but lots of options to eat well nearby and excellent hob.Cats loved watching sunrise and birds from sitting in windowsill from 4am, stayed there observing mostly 247. Very pet friendly. Cats had no escape holes like in most places. Lovely place. Would stay again although we have lived in Cambridge since 2005. Rented as needed some renovation. Thank you!
Stayed 2 nights in Jun 2026
