My stay at Bridge Street House had its ups and downs. The location was fantastic, right in the heart of Winchester, making it easy to explore. However, I found the cleanliness of my bathroom to be quite disappointing, which really impacted my overall experience. On the flip side, I enjoyed a comfortable night's sleep in the well-furnished room, making it a mixed bag overall.

My stay at Bridge Street House was mostly positive. The location is fantastic, allowing easy walking access to the city center and attractions.
