friendly chap comfy bed central location missing mirror steamy bathroom difficult situation
I found a really friendly chap at reception. He gave a super comfy bed and a perfect location (so central!). The breakfast was great and traditional English.
There was no mirror in the room, not great. The bathroom got steamy after a shower. This made it difficult to get ready.

Decent Location, Some Disappointments

missing mirror faulty fire alarm
The room felt quite basic, and I really missed having a mirror outside the bathroom. It was inconvenient to wait for the bathroom to clear or for the steam to dissipate after a shower just to use a mirror. I found the fire alarm went off twice. It was a bit unsettling even though the staff addressed the issue quickly, acknowledging a fault they were working to fix. (I hope they sort it out soon !).
