6/10 Good
10 October 2019
The flat, it must be said, is on the 5th floor of a run down building with no lift. There are over 100 often poorly-lit steps to climb. The flat is clean and basically equipped. The inventory mentions cooking equipment - there is one small pot, a frying pan, a kettle for the hob (not an electric kettle) and 3 knives. No chopping board, no cooking spoons or other utensils at all. While there is a plentiful supply of hot water, from a pipe which is falling off the wall outside, there is no tea towel. There is a good microwave and a toaster. The fridge is efficient but has no light. For table, there are 2 plates, 2 small bowls, 2 mugs, 2 knives, forks, desert and tea spoons and 1 pint mug!
The bed is comfortable and the bedding fresh. Most of what little storage space there is, is taken up with spare pillows.
Outside space is plentiful, and distant views good, but the bathroom is separate and across a sometimes slippery and rainy deck. Quite a journey on a rainy night. The outside light was not working and the bathroom light is minimal.
Accomodation not for the weak or faint hearted!
