What does Hannah mean by this?
What does Hannah mean by this?
This is incorrect. Hannah does not mean that her flat was as big as a cave. A cave can be 'grotty' but this would not mean that it was big.
This is incorrect. Hannah does not mean that her flat was a real discovery. A 'real discovery' is something surprising that one finds unexpectedly, such as a bargain or a lovely cheap hotel.
This is the correct choice. The adjective 'grotty' is informal British slang to describe something 'unpleasant' or 'miserable'. Example: 'The kitchen in our office is very grotty, nobody does the washing up or clears the dishwasher.' Hannah describes her old flat in London as 'grotty', implying that it is 'dirty', 'damp', 'without light' and generally rather unpleasant. 'Rather' is synonymous with 'quite' in this example.
This is incorrect. Hannah does not mean that her flat was very cheap.
