We happened to be visiting (for business) during graduation week so there weren't many hotel options.

I loved my stay here. The home is very warm and welcoming. Vera and Roderick were so helpful and always very friendly! They gave me suggestions of things to do, easy places to get to and they were very gracious hosts! The home is lovely. Convenient location close to the heart of Cambridge and very close to the train station!... More

Living at Alexander B&B felt like a usual day at my house. There were clean sheets and comfortable beds with also an en-suite clean bathroom with high pressure water. The best was the breakfast with a view of the beautiful garden and the smell of roses. On top of that... the hosts Vera and her husband were lovely people, helpful... More

I had the pleasure of staying with Vera and Rodrick for 2 days in May. The room was cozy, and spacious with a large double bed and the en-suite bathroom was spotless. The place itself is just 7 - 10 minute walk away from the city centre and it is quite difficult to find a place soo close to town... More
