clear directionshelpful adviceeasy walk

the owners provided clear directions to local dining options. i received helpful advice regarding nearby attractions. the location allowed an easy walk to the city centre (about 20 minutes).

i found only one radiator working in the bedroom, and the sash window wasn't double glazed, which caused a slight draft on a windy night.
