Pros:

The location was perfect for me as it is no more than 2 miles from where i was meeting the next morning. I particularly appreciate the fact that they are happy to have dogs in the building.

Cons:

Little to criticise; the water pressure in the shower needs to be a little stronger.

Pleasant
Pros:

Clean and good location, nice space if with a dog or wanting privacy

Cons:

Booked the apartment style room which was great but it said there would be a washing machine and tumble dryer and there wasn’t one. Some of the interior was a bit tired and could do with updating e.g., when you open the dishwasher the skirting board underneath falls down and stops you being able to open it. No working tv in the bedroom, dvd only but the dvd player didn’t work and no batteries in the remote controls so we had to switch them between the controls.
