Some issues noted. Average stay

shower mold rude communication
the apartment's location was acceptable, close to amenities.
The cleanliness was subpar. I found mold in the shower. the host's attitude was also a problem. I felt rushed during checkout and the communication was unnecessarily rude.

A Pleasant Stay

ideal location white bedding blocked toilet parking struggle
The location was ideal. I found cafes restaurants and pubs nearby. The One Bed Flat was spacious enough. Bedding and towels were crisp white and soft.
Parking permits are good but I struggled to park anywhere near the street. I think it is better to find a car park nearby. The toilet was blocked. I stayed only for 2 nights so it was not too inconvenient.

The location, it seemed fine I guess. I had bars and restaurants conveniently around the corner, if that is your thing.
The storage heaters, they were awful. It took like forever for the room to get warm. When I arrived, I was so cold, it reminded me of an ice age.
