    The room was a little dated. The toilet was dirty (not flushed) when we went into the room, but just hoped this was an oversight by the cleaner.

    Excellent location to walk into the city centre. Room was spacious. Staff were helpful. The breakfast was great, and set us up for the day.

    The shower could be better. It was a bathtub, but no curtain, so it was hard to take a shower. Other than the place is faboulas.

    Very cleaned room, staff was very friendly and great location, very close to the town.

    It’s a bit of a warren and we had to carry cases up 3or 4 flights of stairs

    Location - an easy 15 minute walk to the centre but very quiet very good price considering the town. Lots of parking. Good substantial breakfast included in the price.

    Hotel a little dated and very hot and has no air conditioning. on our visit it was 26 every day so coming back to a very warm room was a bit uncomfortable

    The location is brilliant just a 20 minute walk to Cambridge centre and a stones throw from the river cam. Also free parking at the hotel

    The Ashley is at present a work in progress, the initial appearance of the outside was disappointing, in need of decorating, the entrance again gave wrong impression, a little drab, reception contacted by intercom. Then it becomes apparent that the hotel is in line for a full modernisation and extension, so therefore the outside is just temporary. However I would suggest give the front door a clean/coat of paint to make it a nicer frontage. So if anyone is booking the Ashley, it is lovely inside, clean and tidy do not be put off. May be an idea that the owners put something on the website/booking.com that the hotel is under going external facelift.

    The breakfast was good, reasonable choice and nicely cooked. The room we had was clean and fresh, bed was good and comfy. Location worked for us, only a twenty minute walk to Cambridge centre or the bus about five minutes trip. The two ladies who both serve breakfast are very efficient, work hard, when they have done the breakfast then they start to clean the rooms, they need a great big pat on the back.

    The bathroom was not nice, there was hair over the floor, around the toilet, and in the shower. There was quite a bit of mould around the shower and the shower door. The front door and entrance wasn't very welcoming and had a different name on it. Room was very hot, no fan, and didn't want to open the window at night onto the street.

    Although the room was a little outdated, it was as pictured and the bed linen was clean. The staff were pleasant and the breakfast was nice. Good location and nice pub next door.

    Person on front desk checking in was officious and off-putting. This is 2.5 star accommodation, so no elevator, no air conditioning (we visited in summer). Plumbing is old and doesn't work well (including no hot water late at night). Even at the height of summer cost is expensive for what you get.

    Great location in Cambridge. Cleaning and breakfast staff were excellent and helpful. Breakfast was excellent and very filling. Parking was a big plus.
