Overnight stay
Liked: Clean basic room with bathroom ensuite.
Disliked: No where to sit to eat breakfast due to dining room being closed due to Covid (still), no tea making facilities in room only in communial kitchen which meant getting dressed to go out and get a cup of tea. Breakfast was basic. All contact via phone with a request on arrival for a photo of my credit card so that any 'damages' could be charged. Red flag I should have realised. Photos sent next day of 'damage' to towels and pillow case. I have coloured hair and it can sometimes rub off on towels, but it washes straight out in a normal wash....unfortunately because there was no where else to sit my hair touched the pillow and towel while slightly damp...(I did not wash my hair there, just shower damp at the ends). But within an hour of leaving the photos arrived telling me I would be billed for the 'damage'. I replied that washing the towels will remove any colour (which it does) and didn't hear any more from them, but the immediate jump to being able to claim more money was disturbing. I would be concerned if I were to accidently break a cup or make any accidental real damage here.

Good if you just need...
Liked: Location was convenient and out the way. Bedroom was clean, shower pressure good. Access to microwave and fridge in shared kitchenette. Secure, lots of CCTV - maybe too much
Disliked: Breakfast was toast and cereal - no fruit like other guests had mentioned. Check in was 3.30pm, not 3pm as advertised on Booking.com. Not personable, did not meet host during stay. Host went into room when we were not there, unsure why. Room for two people but only one chair and desk - no room to eat a meal.

Nice and quiet area, we...
Liked: Breakfast was ok.
Disliked: A small tub chair in the bedroom to sit on and a little expresso pod coffee machine in kitchenette would be nice.
