Furnishing. The accommodation is very well presented. You will have mostly what you need. Location is great. * BROKEN BED * - One of the beds was broken on our arrival which we didn't fully examin, we just saw the wooden leg being bent seemingly incorrect way, but as I wouldn't expect to have to check the condition of furniture every time I check into a property, we left it as it was. The said bed had then COLLAPSED under my elderly father during the night. * THE NOISE * - We were either unlucky and had a very noisy neighbour who played HAPPY HARDCORE MUSIC until 3am or the club on corner has a questionable music selection. If you end up in the loft bedroom, be prepared for pigeons waking you up as if they were sat on the bedside table next to you. * LEAK/ DRIP * - from top bathroom all the way to the ground floor. * UNRESPONSIVE HOST * - I informed the host of all of the above issues and received no reply whatsoever. * CLEANLINESS * - top floor bedroom looked like it's not been vacuumed for a while I would not recommend staying here unless you are either deaf or just willing to risk it. And a heads up, on arrival the thermostat downstairs (only one) was set to 12 degrees, it took 5/6 hrs to bring the property to a comfortable temperature. No extra blankets/ pillows/ duvets.
