ideal locationno fridgelimited tea bags
The location was ideal close to public transport and within walking distance of everything.
There was no fridge in the room I had. Hot drink provisions included a kettle some biscuits sachets of Nescafe coffee and little portions of milk. I expected better. The tea bags were not replenished only more fruit teas were added.
