Turing Locke Cambridge
Cutlery was hard to find(in draw below oven). Instructions for oven weren’t for our oven but worked it out in end. No restaurant - but info on tv suggests there is - it closed week before so the info needs updating

Everything was as I expected it to be. The staff were very polite, welcoming but not OTT. The room was clean and comfortable and the breakfast was good. Perfect for an overnight stop.
