Lantern House  

The chap who answered the door was friendly and tried to be helpful. He gave us a street map and in the room there was a useful information-pack with buses etc.

The Lantern do not provide breakfast. It is right on the outskirts of the city with no cafe nearby. The price would have included breakfast anywhere else. If they cannot cook there are plenty of other options such as cereals and cold meats and cheeses.

Staff is friendly Clean rooms

Price is quite high for a bed and no en-suite (but that's the case for most Cambridge accommodation) Location is a bit far from city center

Good location.

Limited parking. No breakfast.

Clean, neat, quiet and budget friendly. Perfect for an overnight stay!

Location was great, handy to walk or bus into town. The rooms and facilities were pretty basic, but the advert clearly states what you get, so you get what you pay for, Cambridge accomodation is expensive! They also let us park there during the next day after we had checked out which was great!

Wasn't the cleanest and a little tired.

It was clean

Incredible noisy place. Smashing doors, shaking walls and ceiling each time some walked. Very loud neighbors and thin walls. Make sure you get your room on the top floor. Sorry, but never again this place.

Very comfy room, nice coffee/tea tray with jar of biscuits. Very friendly

Stairs are quite stepp which may be a problem for some, shower could have bit a bit more powerful.

Bed was very comfortable and room was nice

They advertised bikes for rent, but the ones that were available were of too bad quality to be rented out

comfy beds, welcomed by staff, helpfull staff

bathroom was small but not really a problem.

Room was well serviced

Radiator controls were difficult to get at.

Very nice staff. He helped us in many ways. Installation is clean. Free cookies, tee and cafe. Very well located. Very good price. Free wifi.

Nothing bad. Not the biggest or the cleanest, but very descent.

comfy bed, warm duvet. good cosy pubs just a short walk away

the location and the design in the attic room, with a skylight on the roof.

no private toilet

It was real close to supermarkets and it only took me 30 minutes on foot to reach Churchill college where my interview was being held at the time. It was great to check out the university town before and after the interview. I can only recommend this accommodation to anyone who wants to stay for a couple of days. Hospitality tray in the room with tea (even a kettle) and coffee and ginger cookies was totally awesome.

Maybe I felt like it was hard to find it at first, but then I had no problems with it.

Convenient location on ring-road.

Bedroom carpet not vacuumed as thoroughly as I would expect. There were hairs and particles of grit on the carpet outside the en-suite. My only other quibble is that, following years of experience using budget accommodation, I consider it over-priced for a guest house that doesn't offer breakfast.

Very clean. Toilets worked well. Plenty of hot water in the shower. Heat to the room worked well. Quiet at night. Pubs and small food store within walking distance.

location was amazing and the parking was really useful.

the room smelt slightly of smoke so we had to leave the window open.

Located close to the city and comfortable rooms and quiet.

It was close to Cambrige and had decent restaurants/grocery stores within walking distance. If one is visiting Cambridge for a day or two and cannot find rooms at Cambridge, it would be a decent place for budget travellers.

Nothing really but there was no one in the front desk and coffee/tea was not replenished on a day to day basis.

Good value guest house. Clean, no frills, 15-20 mins steady walk to Cambridge town centre. Free parking. Friendly, helpful owner.

Very comfortable bed. Very clean.

First and foremost, we liked the staff: met us a guy named Sebastian who was very helpful during the whole stay. He helped us carry the luggage to the upper floor where we stayed, gave us good advises and even agreed to store our luggage after check-out time. The room was a bit small but very neat, with tea, coffee, biscuits and all the needed facilities, which were all clean and in a good condition. Another thing that we liked was the fact that they enter your room and clean only if you ask them to by leaving the suitable flyer outside the room. Otherwise your privacy, thus giving you control over who is entering the room.

it sueted my reqiurments,for work. all though not happy i missplaced the keys and was charged £50 which i think is to steep they where only yale keys.

Friendly staff, nice, clean room, excellent location near river and within walking distance to Chesterton village and Cambridge town centres.

The day prior to my check-in I received a slightly bizarre email about reading my booking (in capitals) properly, signed by The Manager. Based on that, and some reviews I had read I was mentally prepared to meet some kind of real-life Basil Fawlty, but fortunately the staff were nothing like that. The only real (but minor) issue was that the (Freeview) TV reception was clearly on the flaky side.

It was cheap and cheerful

Very small rooms. Limit services. Shower facilities were limted.
