Having booked to attend a wedding, we were contacted by the guest house less than a week before saying they had to cancel our room. They provided a telephone number for one other B&B (Which was already fully booked) and said they would refund our credit card. Three months later and they have still not returned the money for the... More

My usual Cambridge B&B being fully booked, I found this one on the web without checking it on Trip Advisor. Mistake! The only human contact I had with the place in a three-night stay was with the pleasant young man who checked me in and showed me up to my clean, comfortable and fairly spacious room. He also gave me... More

I stayed here with my daughter when we went to the Cambridge Folk Festival for the day. We were welcomed warmly on arrival, offered tea or coffee and a choice of rooms. We chose the smaller room overlooking the garden, the room was clean and freshly decorated (though not exactly designer boutique style) , the bathroom was fine, the shower... More

The Guest House and location were just average. Found the owner's manner very abrupt and unfriendly. Have stayed in accommodation offering a more central location and far better value in beautiful Cambridge previously, so was extremely disappointed with Alpha Milton.

The manager was very friendly and helpful, and the breakfast was good (the Traditional English). Ample off street parking (they let us leave our car parked there all day after checking out... More

Dreadful dump (also known as the Alpha Milton, to keep it at the top of lists) which should be closed down. Like others, I foolishly paid upfront, including a 5% surcharge by credit card, only to find a miserable, squashed room in the eaves, crammed with beds, and surely contravening fire safety rules. We paid £180 for two adults and... More

Was forced to stay here one night. Small room and even smaller bathroom.Although there was a shower but it was more a trickle rather than a shower! Braekfast aws very limited. bread tasted awful. The road to the car park is full of deep ditches and if you want to keep your car's suspension safe do not attempt to park... More

We spent in this guest house two nights...and it was enough! The sojourn started with the immediate payment of the room before having the possibility of checking it. The room was really large but with an awful bathroom. The room window had a view of a dirty rear side yard. The room door was damaged and did not work well.... More
