Spacious rooms, nice kitchen, next to the mall, walkable to the campus and major attractions. But there are couple of big spiders in the downstair room, and one climbs to our bed during our sleep.

Midsummer Mews was a comfortable base of operations for our exploration of Cambridge. Really quite close (1.5 blocks) from the entrance to Midsummer Park and the riverside paths to town. There is a mall(!) halfway down the block, and a Waitrose very close by for excellent food. The apt complex is a bit like Fort Knox, but once you figure out the gate and door locks you’re good to go. Gate was a bit tricky at times to open from the inside, something to do with the release button not always unlocking the gate door. Helpful to have 2 (or more) people for egress. Apt was nicely appointed, could have been a bit cleaner in the corners, etc, but good enough. The bedroom is down some somewhat treacherous stairs, but thankfully we had no issues. Nice that there was a washer/dryer. Though when washer was running, pump could become overwhelmed and the shower wouldn’t drain effectively. We learned not to shower when the washer was running! The beauty of a subterranean bathroom…. Also a half-bath upstairs, though only one window opened in the whole place and just a crack, at that. We left the door open to mitigate the stuffiness. Otherwise, we were very happy at this location! Bit of a walk from the train station with our luggage, would’ve done better to grab a cab. Great communication with CityStay staff.

The location is really convenient, the hotel offers nice food and drinks..etc. I do enjoy it except the shower room is not easy to use, and there’s no washing tablets offered, the dryer doesn’t really work as the clothes was wet after drying hours.

Good location, excellent accomodation (room 13), everything needed was catered for. Met by a very informative lady on arrival told us everything we needed to know. Couldn't fault.
