Thank you very much for your kind review. We’re delighted to hear that you were happy with the property and that you enjoyed your stay. It would be a pleasure to welcome you back again when you return to Cambridge.
Lovely house, fantastic location close to the river and an easy walk along the river path into the city. Lots of thoughtful touches. Comfortable beds and use of an exclusive parking space at the rear, which is important as there is little parking in the area. Would stay again.

My daughter and I stayed here for four days. We loved the house and the area. Easy walk across the river to town, convenient bus service when we didn’t want to walk, and plenty of room to relax after our busy days. We would definitely stay again.

The house was very clean and comfortable. Having a parking space and still being able to walk into the centre of Cambridge was a real bonus. I would stay at this property again.

Great location, just outside of the busy town center but short and easy walk to all the sites.
Well appointed unit, plenty of room and stocked with all necessary amenities.

Adam was a wonderful guest to host and respectful of the space. He made sure to communicate the things he needed for the place, very considerate and understanding. Welcome to come back any time :)
The property was perfect for our family of 5 for a month-long stay. The location was great for us — walkable and bikeable to the central city, and close to a bus stop for longer trips. The property was clean and consistent with the online booking. Communication with the property manager was excellent. The kitchen included all the things we needed to prepare many meals, and we made use of the laundry facilities. Overall, this was a great home base for many memories made in Cambridge.

We had a very comfortable and quiet stay in this house in Cambridge. The host provided very clear and organized information that made the whole process easy. The house was close to the River Cam and many restaurants.

Sarah was a great guest and is recommended to all hosts!
I really liked the house. It was beautiful and well appointed. My only feedback is to provide more towels, especially for longer stays. I also couldn’t find trash bags and cleaning supplies and had to run out for those. They did have laundry supplies which was lovely.

Thank you! We’re glad you loved the house and found it well appointed. Trash bags are provided in the property, and we would have appreciated it if you had reached out during your stay so we could have assisted you. We also appreciate your feedback on the towels and will look into improving that for longer stays.
Had a great long weekend. Bedrooms are good size, kitchen worked well. Good location for walks alongside river into town. NB Car parking permit worked well but have to unload car first and then park car 5 minutes away. Would stay again.

Lovely clean house, great communication, and location!
This was a great property - really clean, great location, comfortable beds and clean towels etc. The property was a little "sparse" for my taste - not too homey feeling, but it was so clean and had everything that was needed. i would certainly stay again. The communication with the team House Luchini was fantastic - they were proactive and always answered any communication in a very short time. I was really impressed.

It’s also wonderful to hear that our team at House Luchini made a great impression! We’d love to welcome you back anytime—thank you again for your kind words!
Property was very clean and as advertised. Nice and bright house in very nice neighborhood. Comfortable beds, a really nice living/sitting/dinning room downstairs and two bedrooms upstairs. A perfect place for a family. We stayed with our 9mo old and the property provided a portable crib and a high chair which were appreciated. Really good communication with owner/manager. This property is about a 20 min walk to central Cambridge. It is a very scenic walk. There are also a few pubs and shops in the more immediate neighborhood.

Hello Eli, thanks for providing us your feedback. We look forward to hosting you again in the future. Stay safe!
Very cosy and comfortable accommodation, perfect hosts
It was a wonderful time we had in this little cosy house. Everything went smoothly: communication beforehand, check in, our actual stay and check out. The host is very welcoming and quick to respond. Everything was perfect. We would come again for sure!The only thing to improve is the sleeping situation in the main bedroom: it is a king size bed with one mattress (a quite "bumpy" one) and one cover. It might be a cultural thing, but we find that the sleep on two separate mattresses and two covers is much more comfortable as the one does not influence the other's sleep when rolling over during the night. Also the bumpy mattress transmits any movement to the other. - We were three persons hence we could distribute ourselves so that everyone had its mattress and thus deep sleep.

Thank you so much for your kind words! We’re delighted to hear that you enjoyed your stay and that everything from communication to check-out went smoothly. It’s always our goal to make guests feel welcome and well looked after.
We also really appreciate your feedback about the sleeping arrangement in the main bedroom. It’s a helpful observation and not something we often hear, so we’ll definitely take it into consideration when planning future upgrades—comfort is a top priority for us.
We’d love to welcome you back anytime!
Thank you, KayJanice, for your rating. We’re always looking for ways to improve and would welcome any feedback you might like to share. We hope to host you again in the future!
