I am originally from Ely. I have stayed at many places there…. But this was my first time there. I was pleasantly surprised at the room. First of all… it was clean ! The bed was comfortable…. The water pressure was awesome and there was plenty of hot water ! Also had a microwave and a refrigerator…. Plus a coffee maker. I would stay here again…..
