A great budget accommodation
Pros:

The cleanliness of the room. The ensuite was a good layout and decor. The room was well catered and excellent room size. I will plan to reuse The Grafton rooms again on a future visit.
Thank you

Cons:

Recommendations;
The ceiling light has a few dead flies which is only noticeable when lit.
The television has no aerial terrestrial communication for normal TV watching.
On the whole all very good 😊
