Disliked: Property conditions & facilities
Shared bathroom with the other room which we didn’t realise till we arrived. Decor average but comfortable bed. Fridge freezer, microwave, kettle, tea coffee milk bread cereals provided. Loud music outside on the Friday night till 4am. Bathroom could do with some TLC.
This was a nice room for two people and all the facilities were as described. The photos are an accurate representation. Great communication via WhatsApp/text with Kelvin House prior to our departure, which was greatly appreciated.
It would be useful to have a mirror in the room as well as in the shared bathroom. We had to wait 20 minutes for the bathroom to be vacated by the folks in the other room in order to use the mirror.
The bed pillows were the bolster type and gave us both a stiff neck on the first morning. We had to borrow two normal pillows from relatives in the area so that we could get a good night's sleep.
Overall, great accommodation for a short stay in the area though in future we will opt for en suite accommodation.
