Gareth's place is in great localisation. Not very restrictive, but quiet none of the less. Also we got nice scones for breakfast. Thank you for that.
There are many issues though, that made overall experience bad. First of all, the room I stayed in was not the room from the photos! The view that made me to book this place was not there either- it was a view from the another room.
In my room blinds were closed and couldn't opened them, so it was dark all the time. Windows were leaking cold air, so the room was very cold ( my stay was in January). For three shower I took I had hot water once, two other times water was lukewarm. There was population of silverfish in bathroom and in my room, on of them crawled into my backpack and I needed to repack after! Also, no access to living room from description.
Gareth did not answer my messages was slow to answer them. Was late for check in (even though he set earlier the time himself than I offered, then he made me wait for 30 min) not there for check out (I needed to leave keys in mailbox) and generally not there to report any problems or ask for any advises.
I sure hope it was just a bad timing, but I would not stay with Gareth again.
