Booked 2 rooms. No iron or ironing board in either room. One of the rooms had a very bad odour- possible stale cigarette smoke. Water saver shower heads that didn’t provide adequate water flow Beds your comfortable but glad only booked for 1x night

Good position and was clean and tidy. L2 guttering needs cleaning out as was cascading into quadrangle car area. A bit dated. In bathroom shower taps need replacement and shower head as well. Bed was really nice. Over all very pleasant. Thanks

This property could benefit from some renovations. Our fridge was very old and broken, and the bathroom was old and the out of stock of conditioner and moisturiser. The wifi also had a weak signal a lot of the time.
