Limited heating in the lounge on a cold day. No hair shampoo or conditioner. ##### Brenda Stayed 2 nights in May 2024 ### 8/10 Good #### Verified traveller 13 Aug 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, property conditions & facilities #### Tidy handy place for a nights stay Well sized units with double glazing. Nice new bathroom so amazed the owners hadn't put in shower domes to protect their new bathrooms from steam - it would also have made it more comfortable for the user to have no steam outside of the shower. Very clean bathroom and kitchen with everything you need. Sadly an earlier guest had cooked smelly food so the room needed more airing. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Aug 2023 ### 6/10 Okay #### Verified traveller 20 Jun 2024 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service The unit was spacious and clean. The kitchen was spotless. However, we did find the unit was not equipped to handle wintry conditions. Main heater was blowing hot air but wasn't effective in warming up the room as the air was directed to the floor in front of it and it would shut off itself after some time. There was a small portable heater in the wardrobe/storage space which we tried to use in the room but it wasn't enough. We did not use the spare pillows in the wardrobe because they did not look like they were changed before our stay (looked dusty). Luckily, heated blankets were provided but we found that some were unplugged from the power sockets and we had to move the beds around ourselves a bit to get the power supply connected. The location was along a major road so there could be a bit of noise in the early night but nothing disrupting our sleep. I do think the laundry usage hours (1PM-7PM) was a bit too restrictive for short-term guests. ##### Verified traveller Stayed 1 night in Jun 2024 ---
