The kitchen has everything you might need to make meals, and there are two sitting areas (one open to the kitchen, and one in front with closing doors for privacy. The bedrooms are private and away from the main living spaces, so people can spread out and have whole group time or quite time. The town of Cambridge is filled with...

"We ended up leaving. It stunk there was moldy food in top of oven. No smoke alarms. We were actually disgusted. Windows were dirty. We didnt want to make a scene so said we had to leave for family matters. Would not recommend this place infact no smoke alarms is a major health and safety breech. Never be back."
