The host is extremely friendly and helpful. The facilities are great: laundry facilities on site were much appreciated, and the communal areas were spacious, attractive and well equipped.
You can't park at the property, although there is free on-street parking (if you can get a spot) nearby, and free public carparks not too far away.
You can't check in til 5pm, which seems quite late in the day - especially if the weather is not great and you're keen to get indoors!
