One bedroom town house

The location is great as in the city centre. House is very dated and in need of some maintenance doing. Some cupboard doors once opened then had to be lifted and pushed over to be able to close. Lots of empty soap shampoo and mouth wash bottle In bathroom. Fridge is extremely old and discoloured freezer door falls off.plinth on kitchen unit fell on floor. Lots of junk in the property mirrors were filthy. Even the scouring sponges to do the washing up were falling apart and well used. Such a shame and definitely well over priced compared to other places I have stayed in St Albans.
