Guest Reviews
- Krasimir (10/5): what you pay is what you get, but it can be better! -
- Olayinka (7/5): Good -
- Kent (5/5): Read the advertisement carefully to ensure it matches your expectations. - Good choice of channels on TV. That it was a shared bathroom was pretty hidden on the website. I expected to have one.
- Tomasz (1/5): Unauthorised guests in room during sleep. - Spacious lounge and garden. Impertinence to disrupt my rest on multiples occasions.
1. I was challenged for not opening door and speaking to a stranger banging for 1 hour because they failed to have contact with him.
They dared challenge me that day in the lounge making an argument, despite I was on phone.
Threats that they will call police because I did not open the door to a stranger and I did not speak with them.
2. They trespassed multiple times into the room even without knocking on door, twice witnessed by myself.
I asked this dark-skinned male landlord, 'What are you doing?' He started arguing with me in the room, claiming it is his right to trespass. He was so rude and disrespectful.
This is not place for a lady. You won't be able to sleep safely.
3. Stinky dirty kitchen. They were requesting me by texts to clean it despite I never used it. No toilet paper. No soap. Absolutely disgrace.
4. Holes smoked out in the bed lining. Cigarette stink in some of the rooms.
5. £5k a month for this dilapidating house... So greedy.
- Tomasz (7/5): First time false impression - My first week at this property took place a few weeks earlier. Relatively nice, quiet, with a nice garden at the back.
It did not last long until my next visit. Cigarettes stink in the white room.
- Steve (1/5): Appalling. I walked out after 5 minutes by and DIDNT stay the night. - Nothing The smell, bare wire connections and cables not hidden, front door not locked. Damp patches on the ceiling
- Adesewa (7/5): Good -
- Tomasz (1/5): Trespassing, Disrupted rest, potential of thiviery. - N/A Absolutely disgusting.
They keep trespassing into your room even when you sleep.
African people manage this property. On one time the alleged landlord dared even arguing with me in my room that he has right trespassing because he knocked on the door. On other occasion a lady trespassed without knocking even.
Quity dodgy place. Looks like they are trying to steal something. Never leave your personal belongings in this palce.

- Ian (1/5): Bad - Nothing. No water to wash in the morning. Shower not connected.
- Yassir (10/5): Exceptional -

- Olufemi (5/5): Passable -
- Pol (10/5): Nice comfy stay - Lovely host and beautiful place with a great kitchen Nothing to fault
- Reuben (7/5): Good - The room was neat and tidy and I did enjoy my stay. I couldn't use the television as it would not select channels.
- Nisha (7/5): Good -
- David (10/5): Great room - Great communication regarding getting access to the property and my room kitchen and bathroom very tidy and bed was comfortable. If in the area again I would gladly use this property. Nothing really the price was good and as I said my room and the other shared room in the property were kept to a good standard.
- Abu-al (4/5): Disappointing -
- Kyle (10/5): Exceptional - Excellent property and great host
- Иван (8/5): The host is very friendly. He came up to the place to help me to deal with digital lock. - Location is quite good. Breakfast is not inclded Но chair in the room. Shower faucet doesn't work well. Does not give cold water, only moderate warm.
- Simon (6/5): Pleasant -
- Kathryn (4/5): Fine for what I needed it for, probably won;t stay here again. - The bed was comfortable and the room was clean. I was disappointed not to have several of the facilities listed as advertised. The bathroom was not private, the TV didn't work, there was no tea/coffee available and the fridge wasn't switch on when I arrived at the property.
- Rose (10/5): Exceptional -
- Riyad (8/5): Very good -
- Sarath (10/5): Exceptional -
- Muzammal (9/5): Superb -
- Mary (3/5): I have worked in travel for over 20 years and that was the most basic I have ever stayed in. - No breakfast it was room only
R It was really student accommodation. The room was very basic. It had a bed wardrobe and chest of drawers but no chair. I had to phone the owner to get the WiFi details. Had to call him again as the room was so cold. Someone then arrived and put a heater outside my door. Kitchen was good and clean, so was the bathroom. Unfortunately it was on the ground floor next to the kitchen and the toilet seat was broken. (Slid over if you attempted to sit on it. This should never be offered as good accommodation. I was totally misled by the advert and the photo used was never of the room I was given. It’s a shared house with three other rooms as I said student accommodation. Had to move out after the first night and move to an hotel for the next two nights as it was so basic and uncomfortable.
- Eoin (3/5): Needs another bathroom and service could be better - Was waiting for the bathroom this morning as it is shared between 4 people!
- James (5/5): Functional - Parking space infront of the house is conveneient Flexibility to manage my own time of getting into and out of the property.
- Michael (1/5): They said it had a private bathroom but it didn't. Dishonest. - It was advertised as having a private bathroom but the only toilet and bathroom were down a flight of stairs and were shared with three other rooms. This is dishonest and a full refund is in order.
