== Places to stay ==
The cheapest decent place to stay in Cambridge is in the Portland Arms pub located on Victoria Road (10 minute walk from the centre). The pub is really nice and offers a few good-sized double-bed rooms with towels, TV, coffee, tea, shower and toilet facilities. The price is £55 per night which if shared between people is quite reasonable. There is a sofa in each room, so a third person can easily fit in. The pub closes at 11.30pm so one can go in there fairly late to check in. No bookings or reservations are required. The pub itself is a good place to have drinks, there are free gigs in one of the rooms, and the landlords are kind folk. (Last verified: March 2012)
Other places to stay include the youth hostel and Travel Lodge. However, they are located pretty far from the centre (nearer the train station), require booking in advance and typically prices start from £60 for a double room.
According to the book 'Places To Hide', a good place to stay (for 4-6 hours!) is ''The Hut'' in Sheep's Green, which is next to Lammas Land. There is also a shelter called Jimmy's Night Shelter, just off Mill Road on the A10.
