3.0
Pros: We were very disapointed lots of the amenities didn't work. There was creepy people Hanging around, we didn't feel safe. The upstairs felt like the floor was going to cave in when you walked on it. The bathroom door didn't even close. Our friends TV didn't work next door. And to top it off!!! They turned the ffffing water off over night so you can't even flush the toilet which is great when you have gastro. And only turned it back on at 8am when our friends banged on the office door. There was no warning of any of this before or even at check in. Our friends where really pissed off as they had to check out at 8:15 for commitment issues, with no shower although I'm not sure you can call what they had as a shower.

Pros: Kitchen facilities so can cook own meals. Able to do laundry. Near supermarket juz opposite the building abt 5 mins walk. Suzy was very helpful n accomodating. Gave us tips on where to go. She is a darling!
Cons: No heating mat on the single bed as there was no power socket on that side of the room. It gets cold in winter. No cooker hob so when cooking have to open door to air the room. Old furnishing n room looks sad n needs refurbishment. Ok for basic needs.

Pros: Room was very warm and bed was comfortable and room was tidy.
Cons: The only problem I had was the stove, it was greesy around the controls, top element did not seem to work, maybe another stove needed, also the table top could have been cleaned better or resurfaced.

Pros: Staff was very friendly and helpful.

Pros: The location was great, the fact we could get one unit for 8 of us. Staff very obliging suited out situation perfectly.
Cons: Booked for 4 adults and 4 children, although there were two rollaways there was bedding for 7 plus using the rolloway but there was no bedding left nor was it made up. They did bring bedding when asked. Also only one pillow per bed and some of them were very thin. They bought extra pillows as soon as I asked. Biggest problem was toilet downstairs (steep stairs) and bathroom upstairs without a toilet. No sink in toilet so had to go upstairs to wash hands
5.0 Okay
Pros: The location
Cons: The rubbish in front of our room very smelly
