The location is excellent, in the middle of major points of interest; the supermarket, transit, restaurants, ... are all within walking distance. The college environment is tranquil, with pleasant courtyards and a hidden garden. The inclusive daily breakfast is comprehensive and delicious.
Disappointed that the Great Hall wasn't open for breakfast, which was expected. I recommend that the Great Hall be opened at least once a week for travellers.
I lived at Blundell Court, and my unit faces King Street, which is quite noisy on weekend nights.

Convenient location. Centrally to everything. There was alot of construction going on because it was between terms and there were few students. They should have given guests a more accurate idea of what to expect.
Breakfast was just ok and not flexible enough for my liking.

The room I had was basic but very comfortable. Particularly liked the Mouse on the skirting board."Sydney Sussex" I presume.🙂.Internet access was good most of the time.Excellent quality breakfast .Good central location .Room clean and tidy with cleaning staff helpful and unobtrusive
Better instructions on how to get to the room and generally navigate the building could have been provided,other comments have mentioned a map of the site.Would have been useful.Thank you to the builder who helped me locate Bundell Court.Some building work going on but mostly unobtrusive.

Bed was comfortable and staff friendly and helpful
I had to negotiate a lot of steps despite messaging the venue to say I has mobility issues. It took several messages to find out how to get access as I was arriving late. I was unaware that there was building work taking place - the lift looked in a state of disrepair and lots of exit doors opened in the mornings, making it difficult to find my way out.
