Acorn Guest House

Stayed for 2 nights - it’s an older style property but personally, we couldn’t fault it for cleanliness or for the friendly and helpful welcome from the owner. Bed was really comfortable and the room very quiet. There is a small car park but as all spaces were full, we were advised we could park in the side streets across the road ( A real bonus as it’s often hard to find free parking in Cambridge). They aren’t doing breakfast at the moment but recommended Stir across the road . (It’s so good we visited both mornings but other cafes are available close by too) The guesthouse is an easily doable walk into centre but there is a bus stop just up the road if you need it.

Location ok but establishment old and not good value for money

Might be alright if it was the last room available in Cambridge. Not as represented on ***********. The outside is uninspiring and things don't improve any beyond the front door. Our ground floor bedroom was small, the bathroom reeks of damp, and on arrival was soaking wet, dried up with the shower mat which came up filthy. Perhaps it's a good thing that they don't do breakfast as the kitchen looked none too clean (could only see in from outside, so possibly not a fair comment). The only positive is that the owner/manager is friendly and helpful. Definitely over-priced. If we had not already paid (non-refundable) we would not have stayed.

Felt safe, kept informed of things regarding guesthouse.

Everything was well set up for what it was doing - and a desk if you needed to work. It was very friendly.

Parking not available, only known on site. Rooms clean but could use a bit refurb.

We stayed in room one. The bathroom was dirty and the toilet was filthy. Squirting some toilet cleaner down a toilet does not constitute actually cleaning it. It was full of hairs from previous occupants and I had to clean the seat before using it. The window in our bedroom didn’t close properly and there was no heating on so it was freezing. The only positive is that the beds were comfortable. Definitely not worth the money and would not recommend this ‘hotel’.

Its a very simple and friendly place to stay.

Nice clean bed but that’s all floor was not clean very dated room decor two large spiders in the room a very bad smell from the bathroom mould on the tiles, door frame and shower, friendly staff but advertising parking but only three spaces and it looks like only the owners cars were there but parking on the lane and on a side street I would stay again with my work mates and definitely not the wife
