    Very stylish with all mod cons. Bed and pillows a little uncomfortable, but that's personal preferance. Only real let down was the state of the communal hallway which is in need of a good clean.

  • Anthony

    Reported it but not no action taken

  • Douglas

    Well equipped with perhaps a few too many nick nacks for families with younger children!! The only negative is the first impression created by the common entrance- always a bone of contention regarding cleaning and maintaining. A really great flat that has been refurbished with high quality fittings. A central location and very highly recommended. Many thanks
