I try to be as honest as I possibly can with my reviews to give other travelers a fair chance with their choices. Overall this property is a 5 out of 10 stars in my book.
I’ll start with the positives:
- fantastic location
- nice, modern bathroom
- extremely friendly and available hosts
- lots of nice “extras” like coffee/tea/biscuits, even fresh flowers which was so nice of them.
- good wifi
And now the negatives:
- Extremely small room with very high humidity. We didn’t even have floor space for our bags.
- We noticed black mold on the ceiling and bathroom. My girlfriend has asthma and was sneezing/coughing the entire stay. We heard everyone else in the property sneezing/coughing as well. This needs to be addressed by the owner.
- The walls are paper thin, you hear every single noise from the other guests. We got unlucky twice in a row where our neighboring guests were extremely loud all the way up to 4AM. It was similar to sleeping in a hostel, had to put music in my ears to sleep.
- The entrance to the building is…disgusting. It smells like cigarettes and urine and looks like it hasn’t been cleaned since the 90s. Not the fault of the hosts but, good to know.
Overall its worth a booking if you’re desperate for cheap accommodation, we do feel the £85/night we payed is a bit ridiculous and hope the owners adjust pricing for future guests.
