Mar 2015

This was a comfortable digs but I wouldn't say it was exactly as advertised.

In the profile it says that the walk to the Playhouse theatre is 15 minutes. I have long legs and don't hang about and it would take me just over 20 minutes and from the digs to the theatre it is uphill all the way so can... read more feel like a bit of a trek.

The room itself is a good size but the lack of a blackout blind (as was included in the profile) did mean early morning sun which may or may not bother others. What did wake me up though was the noise from traffic and passers-by outside the bedroom window. It is single glazed and the road does get noticeably busy in the morning.

HOST'S RESPONSE:

In response to this review I have made amendments to my digs. I have since bought a black out blind. I have changed the walking distance to the Playhouse Theatre to 40 minutes and I am looking into double glazing for the back windows. This has been the only complaint and have had many guests who have enjoyed their stay.
