Personal comments

Appalling. Large apartment in the roof of an old house. No set kitchen or bathroom. One sink, but water had to be heated. Camping stove for cooking. Plastic shower with pump to the adjacent sink and toilet all in the same room. Furniture was very old and dusty - heating via a small electurc unit or wood burner, which was not fixed to the wall and let out very little heat. No health and safty - fire alarms/escape route. Decided to seek accommodation after just three miserable days there.
