Excellent Experience!
friendly hostclean towelstea facilitiesgood location
The host was cute and ensured all my needs were catered to. I felt comfortable. The room included fresh towels daily, along with soap and a hairdryer, I think this is important. Tea and coffee facilities were available, along with a fridge which I found very convenient. The location is good with easy access to public transport into the city.
The window seemed a little thin, I could hear some outside noises at night. It was not too disturbing, I slept well all nights.

great locationfresh milkclean roombadly fitted curtains
elizabeth was very helpful about leaving my car after i checked out that morning. the room had a fridge with fresh milk for tea and coffee. it also had tea and coffee facilities and was very clean i thought. everything was spotlessly clean with freshly laundered bedding and towels.
the room faced a busy road so there wasn't a lot of privacy. i had to keep the badly fitted dark curtains closed during the day. it was because customer parking was right up to the windows.
