6-8 St. Marys Street, Ely, CB7 4ES, United Kingdom –

*9.6* Ely Cathedral: only 3 minutes away! (250 yards on foot)

The room was clean and the bed comfortable. Despite a review i readcomplaining about traffic noise we heard no noise at all and our room was facing the road!

Robert, United Kingdom

Location ideal for us. accommodation more than adequate for 1 or 2 nights Excellent value. Meets our needs perfectly. Twin room at top of stairs but not too onerous. Compact little guest house. Great breakfast at pub across the road.

Wendy, Spain

Comfortable room. Old building with beams, winding stairs, great character

I had an en-suite room, looked nice, was clean and tidy. The double bed was comfortable, also the tv and heating worked.

Sue, United Kingdom

Excellent location right by the cathedral and High Street.

Lesley, Denmark

The location was very convenient in the centre of Ely

I was surprised to find that they only took cash. I must have missed this on the booking site. I was away when they sent the e-mail confirming this so did not receive it. Luckily my cousin had checked their website and came prepared.
The guest house was ideal for a short stay.

Lovely stay, comfy bed and perfect location. This was my second time staying here and when next in Ely will use again. It was a windy evening and I had left my coat at home so was very thankful for the lady who showed me to my room lending me her coat for the evening! Very friendly staff

A small basic breakfast provided.
There was no breakfast, just a small cup and provision to make a cup of tea. Central location was good and value for money although some basic ceareals left out for breakfast would have been a nice touch.

Bed was very uncomfortable and only 1 very thin pillow, towels were older than God’s dog and virtually thread bare. No staff on site from the moment I checked in, until the moment I left. Might as well stayed in a hostel tbh it would have been a better bet. Having stayed in a few places in the local area all of much better quality and around the same price I won’t be back
Nice powerful shower

The room was dark and oppressive. There were 2 single beds, one has a mattress topper and was quite comfortable the other one didn't and was rock hard. The pillows were awful, luckily we had 2 of our own pillows in the car so used them. We would not stay here again.
