The Terrace Villas are historic houses that have been turned into short/medium stay self-contained accommodation targeted at business people. Their location is great, close to the motorway (without the noise), the university and the city.
Our room was on the middle floor of the house which meant that we did hear the person moving around on the floor above and the smells from the person doing their cooking in the next door apartment wafted our way too (you're asked not to cook fragrant food for this reason).
We had a one-bedroom apartment which was more like a bedsit/studio. It also came with a small uncovered off street carpark. The bedroom was at the back of the house and got nice afternoon sun and there was a small balcony attached.
The staff were okay but sometimes away from the office during opening hours so you had to use an outside phone to contact them.
Terrace Villas are more enjoyable than a hotel room but don't have all the amenties of a hotel costing an equivalent amount.
