“This guesthouse stands out for its genuinely kind host, Zarah, who seems to set a welcoming tone. Overlooking a park with a children's area, it's an easy walk or bus ride into Cambridge; I'd suggest confirming bathroom sizes if that's a concern. What appears to be a sweet place for a couple's vacation is conveniently located for exploring Cambridge.”

ok locationcramped roomsmall shower cubicle
the location was ok for what i needed.
The room was pretty cramped. the shower cubicle was ridiculously small. i practically had to fold myself in half to wash my hair, and don't even get me started on trying to shave my legs. It was a contortionist act in there. it was not a fun experience.
