The building isn't great, and communication with landlord & agent was poor. When initially moved in, the electricity & gas wasn't connected to the property because it was a prepay only, but to top up the owner should have notified that new tenants are moving in. Because we moved in in winter, first two nights without heating and no electricity was a horrible thing. 0 accountability on that issue. In general, moving in was a pain. There was, for example, no explanation of say what to do with bins (e.g. there many bins in the backyard, you are supposed to bring some of them to the back road on some particular days of the week, and it's not straightforward). However, the flat itself was quite spacious if it's for 2-3 people. Sound isolation was good. At one point rats infested the building, but the owner quite swiftly dispatched specialists to deal with it. There was another issue with high humidity - you need to have own dehumidifier. The shower is weird, previous tenants caused leakage. And it seems there may be some issue with water being in the bottom of master bedroom walls, and floorboards. It's only visual damage, didn't meaningfully affect the stay. The area itself is nice-ish and relatively safe. Great to have many shops around, easy walk to rail station, historical centre etc. Super fast wifi possible to set up. The flat planning is weird (however, many flats have this). In particular, exit to backyard is via middle of master bedroom (if you want to have a big bed it makes it weird of where to put it), and the back door didn't have a proper lock to it. This was kind of fixed a few months later. Check if it was renovated since - if not, then price should be at or below market rate in my opinion.
