A spacious place to get ready for my wedding. So much character and history from the mid 1800's.
Pros:

The character of the accommodation was outstanding! You could feel the history of the building the instant you opened the door. The extra bath mats and hand towels were a homely touch and very appreciated, especially sharing a bathroom with that many people haha. The kitchen facilities were great, comfy lounges and access was easy.
Thank you to the two young gentlemen that looked after our check in and went on a mission to find us extra sheets and a blanket even though the bar was getting slammed. Very thoughtful!
Having Alfred's Kitchen just across the way was excellent; seriously the BEST burgers!
And BottleMart is just there = very handy.

Cons:

There were 6 of us staying in the apartment and we had to ask for extra bedding to cover the lounges so each of us had a bed. However, the gentleman at the front desk went above and beyond, even though the cleaning quarters were closed for the evening, he found an extra blanket, mattress cover and pillow for us. Absolutely wonderful customer service!!
There wasn't any dishwashing tablets for the washer, or any tea towels to dry the dishes if we washed them by hand haha. But thankfully that was rectified the following day.
The middle room out the back was quite noisy due to what sounded like maybe a fridge that held the kegs. Thermostat was turning on and off all night. Not sure if possibly some sound deadening could be added to that room, as that would definitely help with the noise travel. Thank you :)
One other thing, there is a flannel shoved into a hole in the wall above the shower hahaha. Not sure if that is mouldy, but there is a bit of a mildew smell in there. Might I suggest getting that one gets patched properly :P But it gave us all a good laugh!! Loved the tile shelf in the shower, though. And SO much space.
