The accommodation was in an excellent location & was well equipped. The showering arrangements were poor, very little waterflow from the electric shower & the riser rail for the over bath shower was hanging off the wall. There was a hole in the bedroom floor, covered over with carpet & mould patches on the ceiling in one of the bedrooms.
