In Cambridge’s competitive short-let market, guest feedback is more than a rating—it’s a powerful tool for growth. Reviews reveal what guests love, what they wish was better, and how you can increase your bookings with simple changes.

If you want your short let in Cambridge UK to outperform the rest, here’s how to make guest feedback your secret weapon.


Monitor Reviews Across All Platforms

Stay active on:

  • Airbnb

  • Booking.com

  • Google

  • Direct booking reviews (if applicable)

Look for recurring comments about comfort, cleanliness, check-in process, WiFi, or location. Trends (good or bad) point to real-world priorities for guests.


Address Common Issues Quickly

Negative feedback is only damaging if ignored.

Some issues we’ve seen—and solved—include:

  • Unclear check-in instructions

  • Inconsistent WiFi

  • Uncomfortable mattresses or pillows

  • Noise from neighbouring units or roads

By fixing problems fast, you reduce the risk of repeat complaints and protect your listing’s rating.


Highlight and Reinforce Positive Feedback

Do guests always mention:

  • “Perfect location near the station”?

  • “Immaculately clean”?

  • “Stylish and well-equipped kitchen”?

If so, use these wins in your headline, listing copy, and images. Showcasing what’s already appreciated builds trust and improves click-through rates.


Ask for Feedback Proactively

Most guests are happy to help—if you ask the right way.

We recommend:

  • Post-stay thank-you messages with a review prompt

  • Follow-up surveys for direct bookings

  • Private feedback channels for suggestions that don’t impact public ratings

This not only helps you improve—it also shows professionalism and care.


Cambridge Stays Uses Feedback Loops to Maximise Guest Satisfaction

We actively:

  • Monitor reviews across all platforms

  • Analyse guest sentiment monthly

  • Recommend or implement upgrades based on data

  • Adjust pricing, messaging, and amenities accordingly

Our goal? More 5-star reviews, higher search rankings, and better conversion rates.
