mixed feelings about this accommodation

constant noise stagnant air

the location was quite good, placing me conveniently close to things i needed.

I was really frustrated by the noise levels. Constant noise from the nearby pub meant sleep was impossible until late. also, the room felt stuffy because the window didn't open. this.

central stay

convenient location coffee facilities

the location was convenient. my room had a microwave and a fridge. i found fresh towels and bedding in the room, it was a nice touch. the room also included tea and coffee facilities (which i definitely used!).

I noticed a very strong smell of cannabis and cigarettes upon entering. ventilation in the room was poor. There was only a small skylight window. a small fan was available, but it wasn't adequate for the room size.

Service

My room included tea and coffee facilities plus a TV and WiFi. A microwave, fridge, utensils and crockery were in the room to. Everything was quite clean, including the towels and bedding.

I found the room temperature too hot. I could not open the window to get fresh air. The pillows wasnt very good either, so I didn't sleep well.
