The location is fantastic! The castle view cannot be beat. Everything is within walking distance. Having Tesco next door is beyond convenient. The flat itself was super clean & just perfect for the two of us. Having said that the windows could use a cleaning & other comments about the homeless (only 1 guy) are true but he didn’t bother us & isn’t always around. There is often some litter around the front door but usually cleaned up during the day. None of it bothered us, it’s part of living in a big, old city. I do feel a ceiling fan would be a great addition as the flat did often feel stuffy & for safety I’m sure-the windows only open maybe 2-3”. Would definitely stay there again & I do highly recommend the property.

Loved the location. The parking was a bit far away. Thought it was a bit claustrophobic because the doors were all set to close automatically
