the location was acceptable given its proximity to nearby attractions.
The bathroom was small, a converted closet perhaps. the shower offered only a drizzle. I struggled to have a decent shower.

Charming Stay Close to Everything
quiet street comfortable bed friendly landlady
The room had tea and coffee. I found my room key waiting for me upon arrival. The location on a quiet street was also wonderful. The bed was really comfortable. Melissa answered any questions I had via text promptly. I appreciated the ability to park outside using my blue badge. The landlady was very friendly. The location proved very good for exploring. It was an easy walk to many attractions.
The room was not very clean especially in the bathroom. I noticed lots of dust above the door and around the toilet. There was also black mold and limescale around the shower attachment.

The accommodation is on a quiet residential street with a super calm place. It is a short walk to the central train station, about fifteen minutes, and even closer to the city center, around five minutes.
