Ruti was on time and proved a genial host. On initial viewing, the studio appeared to have all the necessary amenities. The "view" is of a (dark) light well and this may prove dispiriting to some people. It was tolerable for a couple of days. The building is unprepossessing and despite a written admonition not to cause a disturbance, this was not reciprocated by the neighbours; one of whom did his or her washing in the middle of the night. Upon closer inspection, the housekeeping was a bit slap dash and the breakfast offering poor. Overall I felt as though this business is run with minimal effort for maximum return. The stained bath mat exemplified lack of attention to detail. All this needs to be weighed against location, which is okay; and price. On this I would say there is better value elsewhere.
