Urban Retreat - Rooms

The location is a bit forbidding - a house in an estate that's seen better days - but it was easy to access with a key box, and the room was clean, spacious and comfortable. I had a toilet near my room, but to shower you had to go upstairs. Breakfast options were available (cereal, milk, etc) which was a nice touch. Room had TV and a charger.

Having tea and coffee available would be nice.

Clean, perfect for a single traveler

Very clean and comfortable with a large kitchen and living room communal areas.

Very convenient location, with easy access to the city centre and the train station. The room and the house are very spacious, with two bathrooms available. Large, wide bed. The room was clean. Very quiet, apart from the sound of raindrops. Relatively affordable. Wi-Fi works well. All expected amenities.

The house was not heated at all, the room was extremely cold, and I had to sleep in my clothes. After spending the whole day outside and getting wet, it was essential to dry my clothes and shoes, but this was not possible as the radiators were cold. I did not use the shower because the room was too cold. The kitchen was dirty, with unwashed dishes, so I chose not to use it. There are CCTV cameras installed at the entrances to the kitchen and the shower room, which felt uncomfortable. When checking out, I was unable to lock the front door with the same key used to open it, and had to leave the door unlocked.
