Overall I felt the flat was in need of some TLC in particular the shower fitting was very loose and water leaked from under the shower tray when used . Some items in the kitchen particularly the glasses were slightly grubby and I washed them before use ,overall we enjoyed our stay but just wanted to let you know of the above.

Everything you could need. The bottle of wine left for us a bonus.

Easy to find. Parking directly outside the front door, which is ideal for me as I have limited mobility. The key safe was a bit difficult to open but we managed it so no worries. Everything worked well & the instructions of what to do with rubbish & recycling were clear. We didnât need instructions on how to work anything as nothing was complicated & pretty much universal so didnât need any! Everything looked as it did in the photos so no surprises! I would happily stay here again & recommend the flat to others. Thank you.
