Great value for only $57 per night. A comfortable bed a hot shower and a tv that works is all I usually need. I will be back next time I visit Cambridge.

The lady at reception was friendly. The property was clean if somewhat rundown. But considerably cheaper than similar properties in the centre of Cambridge. The basic breakfast was adequate for the money.

Teas/coffee can be made any time. Iron and hair dryer available to borrow. Ample free parking. Very well located for Papworth and Addenbrookes. Excellent eateries nearby. Excellent value.

Booked in online and was met by a lovely lady. We could have as much Tea and Coffee as we wanted available in the breakfast room. Room was warm clean and tidy. We just needed a bed for the night and you pay for what you get. Breakfast was toast, cereal and cold Buffet.

Breakfast service was good but poor services because the online description of the facility that influenced my booking was misleading and did not match the room provided upon my arrival and I had security concerns.

Good place with a helpful manager. You get what you expect and read in the reviews. The building and the door are not accessible for people with mobility issues. They probably have a lift but it doesn't work. Breakfasts were pretty sufficient. Make sure you read a few reviews to prepare yourself for your stay, for example, bringing your toiletries along. They could clean their electric kettles for better hygiene. Rest was fine. I took the private bathroom outside the room option which worked fine for me. I stayed there for a week. Would go there again.

Omah provides a very friendly stay with a good selection for breakfast but the hotel is a budget hotel so don’t expect the Hilton. I think the cleaner needs to up her game, as I was disappointed in the cleanliness of the bathroom and skirting boards.
