This is a lovely B&B. Elizabeth is friendly and accomodating. She is attentive in ensuring toy have the best stay in Cambridge. We stayed in a double room and it was clean, spacious and well presented. Would definitely stay again! :)

I first arrived at Alington in the heart of a dark, snowy winter, after a long day in the office, having first travelled there on one of those days the AA advises you not to travel if you don't have to. It was a real refuge; I appreciated the generosity of the heating being on... many b&bs I'd stayed in... More

Stayed just one night in the twin room the night before my wedding.Room was the twin, disabled facilities room. It had a wet room and was as expected for the price, basic, clean and functional.

Truly fantastic. Helpful, breakfast was lush,very clean, really friendly. What more could you want? The ensuite was a little small, but how long do you spend in a bathroom? I'd happily stay there again.

Having quickly glanced at the other reviews, I'm quite surprised by the bad ones. My experience of the B&B was that it was clean, friendly and with a perfectly adequate breakfast. I booked the room at the last minute for a spur of the moment trip and it met our needs perfectly. We were directly on the main road but... More

Close to the bus stop, free internet, clean room, good value for money.

Just arrived home having spent two of the worst nights ever in this guest house. We booked the "annex" twin room. Having looked at the photo's on their website I was expecting a bright and airy room with modern facilities. What we actually got was a poky little room in a semi detached house 2 doors down the road from... More
