8 / 10Excellent·Mar 2025
Excellent location with convenient bus rides to city centre. Local restaurents worth visiting. Bedroom and external patio really lovely.Main reservation is the quirky plumbing. Bathroom taps to sink very stiff. Excessive hot water temperature could be scolding. Need to run hot water before cold ! somewhat unusual.
6 / 10Average·Sep 2024
In summer it would work well but not a place to spend time when it is cold because none of the outside areas are suitable for this. It has no view beyond the back yard at all and all our lives we have experienced accommodation with some sort of view. Therefore, it felt quite claustrophobic to us. Also the advertising gave us the feeling that it was handy to the city. It wasn't so we needed to rent a car.
