convenient self-catering near medical facilities

convenient location cooking facilities size fridge

The location was very convenient. The main bus route made getting around easy. i appreciated the cleanliness of the room and the cooking facilities provided. a decent-size fridge freezer was available, great for my longer stay.

the shower room was quite small, which could be a challenge for larger guests. maneuvering in the limited space required some care. i hope they address this
