Acceptable Stay with Issues
The location was good and within walking distance of the city center.
The room was cold. The radiator in the bathroom did not work, and the windows seemed poorly fitted (it was as if they had large gaps).

Convenient Location with Character
convenient location heated drying rack spacious bathroom
I found the location quite convenient, especially with the bus station only a few minutes away. Room 8 offered enough space for two people, with the potential to accommodate three. I appreciated the inclusion of a heated drying rack and a spacious bathroom. That was a welcome addition.
Car parking spots were very close to the windows of the flat. Cars parked very close to windows and the blinds needed to stay closed for privacy. This made the room dark.
Facilities
9/10
Parking was available, a significant advantage in this area, and Wi-Fi was provided. I also noted a pub just across the street, offering convenient dining and entertainment options. This added to the overall appeal.
Service
10/10
The staff was helpful and accommodating. They allowed an early check-in despite no prior arrangements. Communication was excellent, as my requests were handled efficiently and the staff was very kind and helpful throughout my stay.
