Pros:

Két különálló ágyas szobában voltunk. A szoba londoni mértékkel mérve nagy volt. Fürdőkádas, ablakos fürdőszoba. A fűtés is remek volt. Belső udvarra nézett, csendes volt. Az ágy kényelmes

Cons:

Nagyon hallatszott a fenti szobában lakók mozgása, gondolom, a régi épület miatt. A reggeli két éjszakát maradva, rendben volt, de ha több napig kellett volna maradni, nagyon unalmas. Zöldség nem volt. Viszont jó pont a frissen pucolt grapefruitért, hogy nem csak édes konzervgyümölcsöt tettek ki. Mi nem kértünk angol reggelit.
