I did not end up staying as the room had no proper ventilation but just one tiny window on top. It was stinking. It was a tiny room. I left. I need a refund
The bedroom and hall carpets were badly stained.No light in the bathroom.Property had a smell about it.Several guests turned up and needed help but could not get the property owner to answer the phone.Property advertised off road parking but was street parking

Liked: Cleanliness
Disliked: Room comfort
it was hard to find the right door on the street and then enter the code on the door as it was difficult to understand. the bed frame was very creaky and there was not even a lamp in the room. the bed was comfortable and the pillows were also soft. room had a good amount of plug sockets and a nice window on the roof. overall not too bad but improvements could be made
The property itself was well kept, clean, and had good utilities. Parking was not at all clear, since it seemed to be in a permit-only area so I parked about 10 minutes away on foot. Strange area to stay in, but again, the place itself was nice and well kept.
The property was excellent value for money and the system for entry was very organised. Its a shame my bed sheets where dirty and the duvet had a brown stain which spoilt my stay.
