5. I would stay here again as it was close to everything that we needed and we could walk about, the only worrying thing sometimes is to hear all the noise going on outside at night, shouting, swearing, etc, This can be a little off putting and also make you wonder about going out at night.

8. We ensured our windows were shut to cut out the noise but that meant there was no fresh air ciruclating as there was also no air control units in the room.
