It’s really convenient combined with most of the student accommodation in Newcastle, I think this is the best one 1. Breakfast on weekdays, coffee, yogurt, fruit 2. The twice-monthly room cleaning is great! Especially Vicky is the best housekeeper 3. The location here is especially great, just opposite the train station, which is very convenient to travel.
