The wardrobes were filthy, the bedside cabinets were filthy. I had to wash outside and inside of bedside cabinets they had years of dust on them inside and outside. The wardrobes were very old fashioned cheap wood. Could not store clothes in them as they needed a good clean so had to live out of suitcases. Only about 6 hangers in wardrobes of different shapes and sizes Rest of accommodation great.
