  : The location is good. Residential area with nice bars and cafes very close by. Bed was comfortable and sheets were fresh. Good shower. Good communication from hosts. They were nice enough to upgrade my room and allowed me to leave my luggage on the last day.
  : Not clean enough. The owners said there is an extra cleaning charge in previous reviews, which is not acceptable. Clean accommodation is a basic expectation. I like to feel clean so it made my stay less comfortable. From the pictures you can see how much dust there was, just from running my finger over the table. Very bad in communal areas, like months of dirt it looks like. My room was less bad but you can tell it's not being deep cleaned often. Dust on most surfaces, hair, dirty bed frame, kettle old and full of limescale. As the owners have stated they do not charge for extra cleaning (a lie), here it is from their previous review response "Property response: "Regarding cleaning, as stated in our policies, and being a small self-service guest house, extra cleaning is available for a nominal fee upon request. " Additionally, the accomodation boast a shared lounge. If this is unusable due to visible FILTH on every service, you should take responsibility for this.
