    The Good: location, equipment, cleanliness. The Bad: issues with bathroom extractor fan and noisy fridge reported but not fixed. No Freeview except through smart tv, which is a pain! The Ugly: awful beds; mattresses too soft and beds constrained by the frame. Need urgent upgrading. Bedroom B too small.
