The location offered easy access to nearby cafes for breakfast. Supermarkets were also conveniently close. Bus connectivity was good, allowing easy travel around the area.
The bathroom was quite small and not like the pictures. Mildew was present in the shower cubicle grouting. The carpet in the bedroom looked dirty with hair present.
