    friendly service
    cramped bathroom

    The location is conveniently quiet yet close to the

    city center, with a lovely riverside walk. I appreciated the friendly greeting and the thorough information about local attractions. The room was cozy, though the bathroom was a bit cramped. Breakfast options were decent, making for a pleasant stay overall.

    Cambridge vibes 🌉✨

    We loved the triple room with comfy bedding and a good kettle for our tea fix. The owner was super helpful, marking all the cool spots on a map for us. Plus, the walk to the city through Jesus Green was just lekka!

    The shower took ages to warm up, so just a heads-up on that one!

    good wi-fi
    hot room
    outdated decor

    Good Wi-Fi service helped me stay connected.

    My stay at Acorn Guest House was underwhelming and disappointing. The room was uncomfortably hot, and there was no fan provided, making it difficult to sleep. the toilet flush was problematic, which added to my frustration. I also noticed that the decor felt outdated, and the overall cleanliness left much to be desired.

    comfy room
    stunning bathroom
    relaxing garden
    no breakfast

    I had a lovely stay with a super comfy room and a stunning bathroom that made me feel right at home. The garden area was perfect for unwinding, and I enjoyed relaxing on the patio while sipping my coffee. Just a heads up, there’s no breakfast on-site, but there’s a cute café across the street that’s worth trying! 😊

    friendly service

    It was just a smart choice for a weekend pause in Cambridge with real value for money. The owner was friendly and even gave us a map of the city, which was handy. Look for free parking on the road behind the place if the lot is full.

    helpful staff
    comfortable amenities

    This place suits me perfectly and provides everything I need, like free wi-fi, flat-screen TV, and an electric kettle. On my first stay, the staff helped me with my bags, which I remember fondly. I recommend trying the cafe across the road for breakfast. I'm definitely coming back for a city break.

    pleasant stay with great location

    The location was ideal, with bus stops nearby and a 20-minute walk to the main attractions. The twin room was comfortable, and I enjoyed the hot water bath facilities throughout my stay. The complimentary tea and coffee supplies were a nice touch, making it convenient to relax in the evenings. I also liked being close to the cafes and grocery stores, which made it easy to grab quick meals.

    I did miss having breakfast options on-site.

    comfortable bed
    clean room
    tea setup
    tiny bathroom
    cramped space

    The double room at Acorn was clean and well-maintained, which made for a comfy stay. Loved the kettle and tea setup. The decor gave it that homey vibe. The bed was comfortable, and I slept really well. My only gripe is the bathroom was tiny and a bit cramped, which was a bit of a struggle. it’s a cozy spot for a few nights if you're exploring Cambridge!
