Liked: Cleanliness
Check in easy and we were allowed to extend out check out by 1 hour which was great. Only downside was shower. The shower had been cleaned out, but full of mould on grout and sealent. Over powering smell- i think the fan was ineffective and turned off as soon as the light went out. If asthmatic or COPD, could be an issue. Can be rectified to compliment a nice flat.
