Liked: Cleanliness, check-in, communication, location, listing accuracy
Superb location, slightly offset by in house issues. Namely a shower where the hotwater has been reduced to such an extent that a proper wash is almost impossible. Light bulbs that need replacing & broken power points that need repair.
