Good: The Christmas decs & tree were lovely. The communal lounge was beautiful. Not so good: There was virtually no heat in a lot of the building. Very poor pressure & little hot water. Huge disparity between apartments. Ours had no drawers for clothing, 1 clothes rail between the 2 bedrooms (sleeping for 5) & 5 coat hangers so we liveRead mored out of our suitcases. One of our children had nose bleeds during the night & after 2 nights, we had to ask for more sheets. They didnt have any so we stripped the bed & the owners mum in law took them away & washed them. Understandably, she wasnt happy. This property is NOT 4*. Hide
