    2/5
    I never leave reviews but, apart from the very convenient location this place was pretty disappointing. Steep steps down to the damp smelling basement bedroom are not mentioned which made it inaccessible to my elderly parents. Kitchen low on basics - not enough cutlery etc - Boiler pressure was dangerously low and the hot water intermittent. Noisy fan in the bathroom which stayed on all night. …
