Unbeatable Combination of Location, Space, Value and Parking. Stayed here with two kids for two short nights...could have easily stayed a week!
This is more like an AirBnB than a hotel, so you need to coordinate a meeting time to get your keys. I recommend having a mobile phone that operates in the UK. Elsa was very patient and accommodating when we were running late. This place is superbly located a short 5 minute walk to the city core, but there is still free parking with a city parking permit provided by your hosts. You display it in the dash of your car. Parked right in front a couple of times. This convenient, free parking is one of the best aspects of staying here.
Our apartment was a 2 bedroom, 1 bath on the third (or so) floor. No lift. Plenty of space and privacy. The apartment seemed recently refurbished and very clean. The bathroom was especially nice and updated, and we appreciated the heated floors in the cool morning! There was a kitchenette with a refrigerator and microwave (?) definitely a kettle and basic supplies. You can stock up on groceries at Sainsbury's, which is about a 10 minute walk away.
