Really good Stay, Attention to Detail
spacious room nice amenities easy access
The room was spacious and included nice amenities. I found a kettle and a TV in my room. The shower's large size can accommodate two people! I appreciated the ease of access to bars and restaurants located downstairs. A Waitrose across the street and a Tesco Express ten minutes away provided convenient grocery options.
I experienced a minor issue . The bathroom mirror's LED lighting was insufficient. It was difficult to see clearly while using the mirror.
