"I want to say a few words about this place The staff member l interacted with was excellent. This place is in theprocess of refurbishment. The place was freshly painted with new carpet in my room. Few things to note:1) please empty rubbish bins prior to next guest - l am sure this was an oversight but annoying, 2) the room backed onto a solid brick wall. This was unfortunate and what made it worse were electrical cables etc all over the place. Some lattice attached to this wall would have made things better or some climbing scrubs - just something to consider? The space under the sink had an annoying smell. This could be solved with some White King poured down the sink or some Baking Powder. Overall my impression was good and l would come back."
