Good position for town

Disappointedly small The garden was tiny at the front and untidy.The room was ok but shower room bijou only a Folding door to save space.Shower floor did not drain so water level got close to overflowing into the room Little privacy as the vertical blinds did not close sufficiently to close out the common area Ants arrived on our 2nd day covering the sink area and running down the bedroom wall
