Matteo

Liked: Cleanliness
The room was very spacious and the beds were extremely comfortable, which made for a pleasant stay overall. Check-in was quick and straightforward, even though there is no staff on site, access is managed through a Ring doorbell where you speak with management to receive the key, which worked smoothly. On the downside, communication with the property before arrival was very difficult, as messages went unanswered. The building is also quite old, with single-glazed windows, so outside noise was noticeable. The room was also very cold, which made it less comfortable, especially in cooler weather.

Liked: Amenities
On a bus route - but about a 10min ride into town - so that’s a down side - £11 taxi each way or £2 bus each time you want to go to town. Place itself is fairly clean and our room was clean and tidy with lovely white sheets and towels. Our room was not en-suite - but had a private bathroom with a key just for us, so was fine.

It was very nice, but for some reason room always hot- the floor was warm sometimes and we had to open the window/door to let some cooler air in. Could have used an extra couple pillows or thicker ones.

Lovely and clean, didn’t see staff but key was left in secure lock and had mobile phone number of owner so this wasn’t an issue. We were really pleased with the room, all recently redecorated. 5 min bus ride into main centre or £10 in taxi. Would definitely stay again
