Bathrooms were clean and air-circulation was good. Only the kitchen ficilities let things down slightly due to high usage (taps loose in their fittings, communal scouring pads need more frequent replacement - one microwave was inoperable). But would definitely stay again. ##### Ben Stayed 4 nights in Oct 2024 ### 10/10 Excellent #### Elsa Aug 1, 2023 Liked: Cleanliness, staff & service, amenities, property conditions & facilities Public areas are well maintained, staff are super helpful and generous.
