The room was perfect. Plenty of space..lovely seperate kitchen with a table. Warm, cozy and clean.
Not far to anywhere.
Being able to hear the toilet flushing in the room next door. The people staying in there used it alot! I think they may need to see a doctor 😆

Very clean and well maintained. The double bed was a bit on the soft side, but that is for everybody else different
Sound from the neighbouring units came through the walls very easy. Running taps, flushing toilets, showers and voices (just normal speaking) not making it easy to sleep.

7.0 / 10.0
Location was very good, quite close to centre of town. Very clean and comfortable. Parking close to unit. Price for a two bedroom unit was reasonable. Smoke alarm works!
Internet was limited. The unit is noisy, located right on a major road with fairly continuous heavy traffic. Not set up for elderly/disabled people. Steep path and steps to door. No grab handles in toilet or bathroom (apparently there are some units set up for elderly/disabled, to be fair, but I am not sure they are two bedroom units). Old and worn seventies decor.

honesty
entry to car park bit narrow
3.0 / 10.0
Bed was reasonably comfortable, plenty of plates and cutlery
The 4way multi board over the kitchen sink fell off the wall,very close to falling into the sink this was strictly illegal, the plug unit was not on an RCD while none of the appliances were tested for safety. This fault alone constitutes a breakage of the law.
The bathroom sliding door kept coming of it’s tracks.
8.0 / 10.0
It was lovely and comfortable and very clean. Great value for money and staff friendly and helpful. Would definitely come back
Shower pressure was a bit sad but I've experienced worse . But to be honest this was a tiny thing in a overall great experience
8.0 / 10.0
Hosts were excellent top notch people
A bit outdated but in no way uncomfortable
