Staff was always there to help and the place was clean, though loud, because it’s above a bar - but I knew that before I confirmed my booking! So I would give them a good grade!

Amazing weekend very busy but we were told it may be noisy as it was a bank holiday weekend but with the very friendly staff it was a very pleasant stay will be back

Wir waren zu dritt zu einem Konzert angereist, das in unmittelbarer Nähe stattfand. Man befindet sich mitten im Zentrum. Bahnhof zu Fuß = 20 Min. Als ich mich fragte, ob es im Hotel Handtücher gäbe (ja!), stieß ich im Netz auf Beurteilungen, die "ungenügend" waren, also eine glatte sechs. Kritik: Kein Frühstück und viel zu laut. Ja, es gab auch für uns kein Frühstück, was wir aber ohnehin dort nicht eingeplant hatten. Es gibt unzählige Cafés (u.a. auch Starbucks) in der Nachbarschaft, allesamt zu Fuß gut zu erreichen. Auch ein Supermarkt gegenüber hat genügend frische Backwaren. Zur Lautstärke ist es so, dass das wirklich ein Punkt sein kann. Wer empfindlich ist, der sollte hier nicht nächtigen. Zum einen ist es am Wochenende aufgrund der Musik in der Bar im Erdgeschoss bis spät in die Nacht laut, zum anderen ist es auf der Straße laut, insbesondere, wenn man bei offenenem Fenster schläft. Die zwei Toiletten befinden sich im Flur, sind sauber und werden täglich gereinigt. Im oberen Geschoss befindet sich die Dusche intergriert in einer Badewanne, im unteren Geschoss ist es eine normale Dusche. Handseife steht zur Verfügung, genauso wie ein Duftspray. Für den Zugang zu seinem Zimmer bekommt man einen Schlüssel, für das Hotel einen Zugangscode. Einziger Kritikpunkt: Es gab weder Kleiderbügel noch irgendwelche Haken im Zimmer. Wir waren dennoch voll zufrieden und würden wieder ins The Castle gehen. Famillien und empfindliche Menschen sollten etwas anderes auswählen.

Steven was very helpful, beds comfy, able to leave bags during the day. Quite noisy due tobeing on main road but very convenient for town centre.

You're above a pub, but right in the city centre, for real cheap. It's highly convenient, clean bathrooms and bedding, but be warned, it's above a pub. Its a bit noisy until late, but that's expected. Can't complain really. We left some headphones and keys behind but they were very kind to ship them back for us! Would recommend if you're in for a couple of nights and just need a bed. Gud price

Clean and tidy. It was as shown on description: upstairs with 2 twin beds and a full size bed. The bathroom was shared and clean. The location was amazing -- thumbs up --and it made it easier to go and get around Cambridge. Being in City Center becomes noisy in the evening. This was a short and brief stay on our way to mainland Europe to catch an early flight out of London. I would stay again. Thanks for lettings us unload our luggage prior to check-in time.

Location location location - if you need a clean stay near to city centre that doesnt break the bank this place ticks all the boxes. Friendly team made sure all was as expected. Room was basic but respected in the price - all good.

The room was spacious, clean and had a nice bed. There was a large closet available. The washrooms were shared and down a flight of steps, but were nice. Given its central location and its cheap price its very reasonable. There was some confusion about my booking as I checked in, but I did book just over 24 h in advance - so this may have been instrumental. Overall a good hotel for a budget stay in central cambridge

Guess we should have realised from the price. This is well located but very basic. The bar below is a noisy club. We didn't mind that, but others might. The room was clean but very basic. Bathroom and toilets shared down a flight of stairs. The staff were lovely.

This is a very old hostel in an excellent location right in the centre of Cambridge. It depends what you are looking for. The hosts were very friendly and helpful; they just aren't on site all day and had to be contacted by phone at times. The hostel rooms are in a maze of hallways above a pub, with lots of doors and turns that you have to remember to find your way up through the building to your room. That adds historical interest but is not great for convenience and fire safety. The hostel room itself was very old with carpets worn and stained, not a great experience. The shared bathrooms were recently renovated and looked great.

Stephen • Couple Trip

On the positive side, great location: about 1min from the park and ride bus stop, about 5 mins walk from the Corn Exchange venue. Super friendly and helpful staff. In the negative side: ultra basic accommodation and very noisy from the bar downstairs, until the early hours.

The location is excellent. The room is clean and staff are helpful. However, avoid booking on Fridays and Saturdays if you want to sleep at night. The bar plays very loud music 'til 3am and it's impossible to sleep.

Bra sängar stort ljust rum och trevlig personal, men mycket höga störande ljud från omgivning ungdomar men främst byggarbetsplats som började lasta skräp 04.00 på morgonen.

下層的共享洗手間門很難開，水的流量小而且要不停地push才能有水下，所以很不方便，水溫很難調整，有時很熱有時很冷
