    Nothing at all. We had a fantastic experience

    Myself and my wife stayed for our wedding anniversary, and it was the perfect base for our short break in Cambridge. Can’t recommend highly enough

    Very convenient location and outstanding accomodation. Access to bicycles (which can be rented for a small fee) was really convenient as Cambridge is very bike friendly. Host was accessible via the Booking.com app and responded very quickly when we had any exchanges. Highly recommend it.

    We were surprised to find a Palestinian flag on the main building; some guests may feel a bit unwelcome or uncomfortable because of it

    The apartment was very well styled with great eye for detail. It was a 30 minutes walk to the lovely centre of Cambridge. There were bikes for rent (not as a courtesy). Parking space was good sized.

    There was no hand-wash or soap in the bathroom, likewise we used the electric fan as it was very warm, this blew out a considerable amount of dust.

    The location for the event we was attending was a 5min walk. Likewise ample parking.

    The location was great in terms of access to the centre of Cambridge, but it is located on a main road. Sometimes the vibrations from traffic meant that the whole apartment shook. Perhaps not great if you are a light sleeper - it even managed to wake me up a couple of times!

    A lovely studio apartment with everything we needed for a long weekend away. Comfy bed, great sofa and generally well equipped kitchen if you wanted to cook yourself something.

    It would have been nice to have had some coffee and a couple of biscuits. There was plenty of tea, which was nice.

    What a fantastic find! A stunning studio apartment right by Wolfson College. We thought it would be hot, but it was really cool in there, even though it was boiling outside. Superb shower, poweeeerrrfuuul! Great crisp bedding. Will definitely stay here again.

    A small loft which is good enough for my husband and I. Very clean and spacious and nice bathroom. Not very far from Cambridge main town, and is quite convenient to travel by ur own car. We parked our car right in front of the loft. Good value for money

    The pressure of the smaller shower could have been slightly better. The TV could be placed higher up the wall, as it was a bit too low to see when lying in bed. Both were minor issues, however, and the Netflix account was a nice touch!

    Scholar's Loft exceeded our expectations in the best way. Arrival was stress-free and easy. The loft itself had pretty much everything we could have needed and was designed gorgeously. The hosts were very helpful in getting back to me and it was clear they had made an effort to provide guests with good recommendations and advice.

    Traffic noise/vibrations with lorry's driving past. The windows were fairly well insulated, but would have been more of an issue in the summer. No breakfast places nearby - consider providing continental breakfast and some fresh milk.

    Beautifully decorated, immaculate and very comfortable. Convenient for attending event at Newnham College. Good value compared to hotels. Would also be convenient if bringing a car.

    Male host very frosty about parking, a welcome to would have been good rarther than just move your car - had tried to park as required. Suggest you designet a spot if you don't want people to park in front of your garage.

    Very warm and cosy - beautifully designed and layed out.
