Practical Stay Near Theale
quiet accommodationample spaceuseful heatinginsufficient cleanliness
My accommodation block sat behind the main building. This made it relatively quiet. I found ample space in the car park. The single room I booked included ample heating, useful .
I thought my room was not sufficiently clean. Dust was easy to see. The carpet reminded me of it had not been vacuumed recently.
