I found the staff helpful upon arrival. the onsite pub provided great food at reasonable prices. It created a lovely atmosphere after a day of exploring. the location allowed easy access to the city center by bus, a convenient way to see the sites. the excellent shared facilities included kettles and microwaves. I really appreciated this.
The shower cubicles lacked a shelf. It was inconvenient not having a place to put my belongings during showers. the floor would get quite wet! the hooks behind the door did not hold much.
