Room suitable for business visitors and those here for a short-term purpose. Linen, towels, bills are included. The bathroom (with shower) is for visitors only but not ensuite; mine is separate. The situation is close to the city centre but quiet; it's a cul-de-sac with buildings only on one side of the street and none at the back - where the room is. There is another spare room that can be used as a sitting room when there are no other visitors and can also be used for occasional visitors of the tenant. There are gardens front and back and the flat is a few minutes walk from the Meadows.
I do not require a deposit but the rent would be payable monthly in advance. For a stay of less than a month, the rent is £160/week. If you are eligible to pay Council Tax (if this is going to be your main address in the UK) that will be an additional £80/month as I currently have the single occupancy discount.
Please do not contact me if you do not fit my criteria.
I have had scores of enquiries from people who do not meet my criteria, generally because they are one or more of the following: under 30; an undergraduate student; do not have a short-term purpose and leaving date. I have sent many people an automated bulk reply but there was no opportunity to add my own text. That makes me sound a bit of a dragon; I'm not really but I think living here might cramp the style of, say, a young undergraduate. I have a busy lifestyle myself and I like to have people who are also busy though.
If you would like to know more, send me a message and I'll answer your questions.
PS I don't seem to have a choice about my advert being 'Early Bird' for the first week and I appreciate that this may put off some people who only use the free service (as it does me, I can't reply to anyone who is Early Bird). I have seen some adverts for Rooms Wanted that are for 2/3 months and I will probably wait till those people are able to contact me (if they want to) before I make up my mind.
