Only good thing about the stay was Cem our waiter for the evening meal, who went the extra mile thank you. Go elsewhere for anything else. ☹️☹️

Very Disappointing!
Very disappointed with room as there was a terrible smell of the drains coming from the bathroom. The breakfast is a joke as it starts very late at 8.30 am. We went in at 8.30 and were the only people in. The cooked breakfast eventually arrived at 9.30am! There were no other options i.e cereal or fruit. The hot beverages were charged as extras to the breakfast! We won't be going back!

Good for a one night stay.
Comfortable but smallish clean room with 4' 6" comfortable double bed. Tea/ coffee making facilities and ironing board, iron, hair dryer, luggage rack, bed side lamp/table only on one side of bed. Clean bathroom, needs extra hooks/towel rail in bathroom. TV Freeview only. Downside very poor hotel wifi reception. Easy walk to Cathedral etc. (all bedrooms upstairs, so not suitable for disabled travellers.)

Nothing particularly unique. Good, mostly clean (sticky patch on bathroom floor). Good service, good food (pipping hot served on a cold plate!). Certainly good value.

A lovely stay
The team could not have been more friendly or helpful and we had a great selection of hot drinks available in our room. Breakfast was great too.
Lorraine, 1-night trip

6/10 Good

We didn’t like the room we were in. Very small windows. Huge television but Too big to watch in the room. We liked the bed. It was very comfortable and there was a very big bathroom. The hotel was very convenient to walk to all the tourist places.

Brilliant location for visiting the sights of Ely. Comfortable bedroom, good sized shower room. Staff were friendly and attentive, made for a very pleasant few days away. Thank you

4/10 Fair

The place was very dated and run down. The worst thing was the smell of drains and damp - particularly in rooms 1 and 2. The door handles all need replacing. The lock broke on room 1 which meant a move to room 5, where the internal handle came off when you tried to get out ( surely a danger if there was a fire?) The windows in all rooms were filthy and the drinking glasses provided not much better! All of these issues were pointed out to the manager who agreed this was totally unacceptable. In his defence it appears that he has asked the management company to authorise the repairs needed but they refuse. My recommendation is to find another place to stay.

Bathroom lacked towel rails/ hooks. Cobwebs over bed. Room was not serviced at all during my 3 night stay. Hanging rail for coat hangers much too high. A small fridge would have been wonderful!
