Stayed here for one night whilst travelling with friends. Very friendly, helpful staff, and rooms and bathrooms were clean. The location isn't very close to the university but the walk is pleasant and really only takes 10-15 minutes. £5 hot breakfast in the morning was definitely worth it!!! Beds were very creaky when climbing into top bunks! Otherwise good place... More

I didn't think this hostel was anything special, but it was the most reasonably priced option within a city that has alot to offer. I was attending a conference at the University of Cambridge (Engineering department) and it was quite a hike each morning to get there, but luckily the walk brought me partway through the historic city so it...

As there are no more other options in cambridge, this is the most convenient place to stay overnight. Location close to railway station, not so close to the centre.

I visited for work, bringing a group of students whilst visiting the university. The hostel was warm, welcoming, clean and conveniently located a short walk to the centre of town. The decor is tired and needs updating but this did not detract from our stay. The food (evening meal, full English and packed lunch to take away) was truly a... More

Security very good with a keycard system.to all main rooms, The hostel management need to look at a way of locking bags/valuables up in the dorms, may I suggest under bed pad lockable hinged plywood doors Also more plug sockets as there where only 2 in my 8 bed dorm room 110.

We stayed here as a party of 22 (13 boys and 9 adults) and we were given the rooms together at the top of the hostel which was great as we could keep everyone near. The bedrooms were clean although the first thing we had to do was open the windows and turn off the radiators in all the rooms... More

The staff there are very kind and excellent, they will prepare maps of Cambridge for you. The rooms are clean, the beds are quite comfortable. But I remember there is no cabinets that you can lock your own stuff in. So if you travel alone and share the room with strangers there may be a little trouble. The common is... More
