We used it when I was bringing my daughter to uni. It's about a 40 minute walk into town but there are bus stops close by that get you there in 15. The view from the living room is spectacular. Everything is modern and clean and worked well. We especially appreciated the laid-on shampoo, conditioner etc and even washing up liquid and laundry detergent! The neighbours weren't too noisy and it was only a 10 minute walk or so to the Tesco Express, so we didn't starve :) Would highly recommend and might return myself one day. ##### Vicky N.
