Few issues with missing things from the room…hairdryer and remote control for the TV. But the lovely landlady/ manager was amazing and I can thoroughly recommend this place. Central to Ely town…which is absolutely stunning. Truly a great find

Great location.

Great location for exploring Ely, lovely staff really helpful. Only slight downside was the room was very warm in the peak of summer!! a fan was provided. The management are really good but obviously the weather is out of their control!! In cooler months its wonderful.
