Menlyn Place Staycation

Ideal location, walking distance from shops, and fairly quiet. Bedrooms and living areas are sizable with all basic appliances at hand, even a washing machine! Good quality block out curtains in the bedrooms and living area. Comfortable pillows and good quality linen on the beds.

The sliding door on balcony has a broken lock so it’s permanently open…risky. The finishes, even though upgrades has been attempted, is of a poor standard. I found that the hot water sink taps were not working in the .kitchen and bathroom. And none of the sinks had a plug? The en-suite bathroom door needs a rethink since closing it from inside, it requires a tight squeeze.. I would recommend a sliding door. as well as an extractor fan since the window makes no difference to air-flow It only acts as amplifier for the sounds and smells coming from neighbours above, below and next door. The Bedrooms cupboard doors, does not close properly and keeps on swinging open. One of them even missing a handle.Some proper hangers would also help a traveller save time to only do ironing once, instead of daily The couch in the living room need to be replaced since the base has no support left leaving you sinking in to an uncomfortable position. The Wifi service is horrible and i was unable to use it for work since it kept on dropping. I could not watch anything on the SMART TV either due to the unstable Internet connection. The location of power outlets in the room made it difficult to charge my laptop. at the desk and I had to disconnect and make use of a extension lead I found (used in the 2nd room for the bedlams)... A second towel would also be nice since there is no towel rail to hang a wet towel to “air” and or dry. The main bedroom's matrass can also do with a replacement, as it is sagging in the middle. of age and use. There were some complementary Tea, Coffee and sugar in containers but the sugar had only 2 teaspoon left...
