Guests that stayed at this property said
The property is generally described as clean and well-kept, with specific praise for its tidiness. However, one review mentioned a rug with dog hairs and stained furnishings, suggesting room for improvement in certain areas.
The central location is highly valued by guests for its convenience, though one review cites a fishmonger's odour nearby. Despite this, the proximity to local attractions and the quietness at night are seen as positive aspects.
Comfort is acknowledged with mentions of a 'homey' feel and comfy beds. Some guests, however, found the furnishings uncomfortable and suggested improvements, indicating a varied experience.
Facilities are generally good, with the property being well-equipped. Criticisms include the front door's awkward opening, potentially toxic scratched frying pans, and a lack of toaster, indicating some maintenance issues.
There are no specific mentions of gifts or extra thoughtful touches provided by the hosts in the reviews, so it is not possible to assess this category.

It was as advertised but some things too basic or could be replaced such as sofa/chair. Overall a reasonable price, clean and customer service was good. We would use again.

Overall property was good and very clean and well equipped. My only criticism was the way front door opened....you had to step into the bathroom or up first stair in order to get round the door to close or open it which was not easy with a dog. Each of us had to either stand in bathroom doorway or on stair to follow previous person out. Maybe owner could look at having door changed to open from other side so access was directly into kitchen.

Mrs Ceri Thomas
Property located behind fishmongers very smelly no outside space for dogs. Very busy alley with noisy revellers.Dark inside very little natural light, rug in lounge had not been hoovered full of white dog hairs furnishings stained and very uncomfortable. Frying pans need to be changed as Teflon coating covered in scratches therefore highly toxic, no toaster had to use oven toaster which took ages to warm. Toilet not fixed to floor right side. Very dusty window shutters in bedroom
