Brilliant location. Sitting on the deck was fantastic, no better place in Cambridge I am sure. Check in smooth, it had plenty of space and was clean.

After a small hiccup that was resolved well and quickly the stay was great. Interesting spot to sit and watch but also very central and an easy walk to most things.
