This was my first experience with renting a room, but my daughter lives around the corner so the location and value was perfect for us. We rarely saw our flat mates! It was January so we could not take advantage of the lovely back yard, but may return in summer for another visit! The housekeeper was very sweet and the place was spotless, we were provided clean towels mid stay and did a load of laundry which was nice. Had a sweet little balcony, too!
